As someone who's weathered through the criticism, Eminem offers Drake some words of wisdom in case fans ever tell the Toronto rapper that he fell off.

The stakes are high for Drake. And unless some sort of major country star decides to roll out album bundles to compete against CLB, Drake will surely earn yet another #1 album on the charts. But still, there's still criticism he'll face for whatever he releases and Eminem predicts that one day, the fans might turn on Drake similar to how they did Slim Shady.

Much of the hype around "Zeus" off of Music To Be Murdered By - Side 2 surrounds Em's apology to Rihanna and the shot at Tekashi 6ix9ine that he offers within his first bar. That isn't the limitation to name-dropping on the song as he did bring up Drizzy's name. It's no secret that Em has a lot of love for Drizzy, even as questions about the Canadian rapper's pen began to rise. On "Zeus," Em offers Drake some advice in the case fans turns on him.

"I've had a great view to see the game through
And, Drake, they're gonna turn on you one day too
And the more you win, the sooner they do
They'll be calling you a trash bin
Sayin' that your new one isn't better than your last and
Even if it is, once they start to turn their backs
They ain't never comin' back in
They did it to Chance"

Perhaps Eminem's premonition will become a reality for Drake. However, it doesn't seem like that will be happening any time soon. Drizzy's managed to overcome plenty of battles and like Em, his fans have stuck next to him through the strangest of storms.
