    I hate this take. “Oh well he is pop” “People wpuld call it corny”

    So that’s supposed to stop him sending his message out? We know it’s reach millions.

    Look at how he ethered Meek. Drake can be direct and powerful with his words

    Hes pop, bro. What u want?. U really want lady gaga talkin as if she know bout the struggle of being part of a racial minority?.

    They aint know but they still doin somethin by coughin up money to finance s***. Thats as important as speaking up, money moves the world whether u like it or not.

    Real s*** though. Drake stans love to bring up his success on the charts in Michael Jackson discussions, but at least MJ had protest songs and was often outspoken on issues regarding injustice

    Mj grew up as a black male in usa tho.

    Exactly. Michael is the king of pop and he had songs about social injustice but drake is too poppy for it too?

    Dam. Drake did have that line in Charged Up tho and Toosie Slide was played at a protest so it’s gotta be considered

    Look yourself at mirror and ask a question bro is toosie slide a protest song?

    it’s not but you deadass said “the biggest rapper of our generation isn’t being played in the streets” my response was literally an answer to that

  • He doesn’t have the range, but there’s nothing wrong with that. It’s not really his lane anyway.

    I’m saying if he could use his platform it would be nice. I’m not condemning him lol. And cmon on you know you’re a fool for comparing Drake and Lady Gaga in this instance

  • Kendrik lama

    Well rappers before him had to face worse criticism than that. And I just remembered he called out Kendrick subliminally by saying something like "I will have more fans if I did conscious s***" all he did later was bubblegum rap 'Gods Plan'

    You can't say things that you can't backup specially in this genre

    lol tell that last bit to every rapper taking about "wet up ya crib" or "just copped a lamborghini truck"

    yall would call him corny or say he can't relate/shouldn't speak on it

    no, I'd rather he go conscious than make calculated viral songs for clicks. since he loves copying styles, why not give conscious rap a try?

    Why would anyone want to hear a biracial canadian jew from a middle class upbringing rap about social issues he didn’t experience to begin with ?

    Let’s be real he’d get more hate if anything

    so why does he make mafioso mob music if that's not his upbringing?

    Alright y'all too worried about skin color , inever called anyone c word or n word. Check my history. Lock thread 😊
