Stevie Wonder appears on a Drake album because he's multi platinum artist and so will probably get a hefty fee for doing so.
If you can find an article with Stevie Wonder singing the praises of Drake & calling him the voice of a generation then that's his opinion and I'll respectfully disagree with him.
You were making the arguement that since those highly regarded artists/legends wanted to do a photo with him than that means he was regarded highly and I simply used a similiar example and Stevie Wonder has spoke highly about Drake and many other artists that I feel are not worthy of those high remarks. I dont see how you could not find anything wrong with him doing a song with a mediocre rapper which I feel is making a point more than doing a photo shoot with a musician.
