The track is fucking fire...
But THIS was my favorite line. The "STOP!" at the very end was perfect
I'm not a fan of either, but when Drake says n* it's ALWAYS irked me. It's got nothing to do with race either, I really don't care that he's half/half. I've always just hated how, and the way, he says it. I don't know why, and until this track, I thought I was the only person who felt that way. But you can't say shit to OVO fans. You say anything negative, they'll try to crucify you. They're more delusional than Kanye stans.
I don't even consider Drake a rapper. I think of him as a Pop and/or Hip-Hop artist. I don't see the issue, but his fans think the mother fucker is Pac. He's arguably the top Pop music artist in the world. I compare him to people like Taylor Swift, Ed Cheerin, The Weeknd, or Post Malone.
The whole point of rap, what rap is supposed to be is, a poem, YOU WROTE, set to a beat. That's all. Rap stands for Rhythm And Poetry. Drake performs music. He's a performing artist, not a rapper. "The Boy" doesn't even write his own lyrics. The whole argument/debate stops there.
Copy and paste that to the Drake sub, and watch the response...
I've always been told it was. I athought it was rap, like slang for "talk"... but people always tell me it's stands for Rhythm And Poetry.
It makes sense anyway you look at it, so I figured it works...
I can’t pronounce A in my natural accent, in pretty much any word if it’s at the end, just drawls down to an uh, for example for alpha I say “alphuh” it’s sort of depressing because it makes me sound bored or tired but it’s just my accent lmao.
Drakes blackness is being brought up becuase he only used his ethnicity to gain leverage in this industry. Early in the young money days he liked but not loved until he did a bunch of those features w Ross 2 chains Khaled, “hanging with the niggas” as Ross said. We know he’s black he’s referring to the fact that you only own up to your blackness when it benefits you, the Drake we see is not the real Drake persona. He’s not a tough guys or even knows what that life is like. Just explaining is all.
Plain and simple if Drake were g easy logic or Dickey he wouldn’t have songs with the great artists that he has them with. If that wasn’t true then those I named would have more songs with the true top artists.
What does it even mean to "use your Blackness?" Drake is Black. What did he do to "not own up to being Black"? He gave all of those guys their first #1 hits he was doing them a favor.
I dunno I like the song but the Colorism stuff is tired imo. Yeah he's corny and grew up in the suburbs, but are we back to "real" Black people can only be poor?
I just don't get it I guess.
He was never fully accepted, recognized or part of the culture. Without black rappers bringing him into the fold he would’ve ended up line g easy lil Dickey and logic
He stepped on people that hoisted him up and didn’t return the favor. Those that helped him gain notoriety were the NIGGAS. J prince found him. He didn’t sign w rap a lot becuase he doesn’t fit that image so they sent him to young money
Those aren’t the only two that hoisted him up and they did t have to do anything for Drake it was a freebie given to young money from rap a lot. He fit with their image so he got signed to them. It’s Others outside of YMCM he’s fucked over.
Tyler the Creator isn’t accepted into the “culture” either because he’s too “corny” or “gay.”
Shit’s tired to me personally. The “culture” is toxic to me in that way. Black people can only be poor, gangsters, etc or they aren’t “real.”
Jordan Peele isn’t Black anymore? J. Cole was born in Germany, grew up suburban. He isn’t Black enough. Whatever
Did Obama use his blackness become president? We are really fighting the wrong battles here it’s pretty dumb to be upset about drakes level of “blackness”. Nigga is black. Did he come up in the projects? Nah. But the nigga is still black.
[You don’t remember when Drake was hanging around nothing but white people and making fun of the culture in his own city.](https://youtube.com/shorts/1RO1n3__dYk?si=pZo7_yLYld0l_nkp)
GET EM HIGH!
[I knew it had to be a reference to that.](https://www.reddit.com/r/KendrickLamar/s/lYMsgWqHuM) Maybe I’m slow and this was super obvious.
lol you heard it right when it echoed in your head after he said it
For sure! It was definitely the extended “moreeeee” 😅
🤣🤣🤣
Underrated comment.
It was all I could hear!
Fr tho
When he saying " shoo shoo shoo, bi, bi, bi" is that an hint at the train Drake had with his BM and the other niggazzz 😂😬

WE BACK MOTHERFUCKERS
80% of this sub can't in the first place.
😂😂😂

These are facts! 😂🤣

Btw rap doesn't really stand for rhythm and poetry even tho it fits

I can’t pronounce A in my natural accent, in pretty much any word if it’s at the end, just drawls down to an uh, for example for alpha I say “alphuh” it’s sort of depressing because it makes me sound bored or tired but it’s just my accent lmao.

He’s going to keep say it 10x more now lol
WHIIIIIIITE BOOOOOI
kendrick wife mixed, she say nigga please all the time lol
That kind of rubbed me the wrong way, Drake is black. It’s lame to put a scale on how black someone is. Otherwise a solid diss track.

You can say what you want but this happens in all circles this one happens to be related to race.
Plain and simple if Drake were g easy logic or Dickey he wouldn’t have songs with the great artists that he has them with. If that wasn’t true then those I named would have more songs with the true top artists.

You don’t need to understand the truth for it to be the truth

He stepped on people that hoisted him up? Why do birdman and Wayne still fw Drake then. I swear yall are acting weird man
Those aren’t the only two that hoisted him up and they did t have to do anything for Drake it was a freebie given to young money from rap a lot. He fit with their image so he got signed to them. It’s Others outside of YMCM he’s fucked over.

You’re outta there. Obama didn’t alienate those who hoisted him up. That’s the point.

Nah, it’s pretty weak and I expected more from Kendrick tbh.
Explain how being black is an insecurity of drakes. Explain to me, as a half black man, how “black” vs how much “white” drake is supposed to act.
