    do you have any factual basis to that or is it just your opinion?

    It is the timing of the case

    Indubitably.

    And if anyone's still in two minds about this matter, please check whose co-sign it just got

    Because he waited until 2024 when he’s been reeling from loss after loss to somehow take up this mantle of liberation that y’all created for him

    What about him flexing his relationship with Lucian barely two years ago???? What about him flexing a nine figure deal with UMG a year ago??? What about him flexing a good label split on Push Ups??? Why did this come out of the woodwork now?

    Not only that, he specifically said that the song hurt him economically in the documents and that was motivation to sue LOL.

    okay, a few pages back i agreed the timing of the case was sus but made the argument that the case was still valid and could have implications for many smaller artists in a positive way (if drake is correct)

    if he wins, if he wins regardless of the settlement its good for independent artists

    If he wins it’s not gonna do s*** for smaller artists, only Drake’s pocket 😂 it’d be one thing if he called for a conspiracy to commit fraud

    This isn't true, if he wins this highlights how far labels are willing to go to underpay their artists, are you guys so blinded by hate you can't even see that?

    First time I ever seen hip hop heads defend the giant corporations smh

    Drake was really happy playing frontlines for these corporations till he wasn’t a hot commodity

    Now he wants to play victim because he forgot that rap isn’t the same as pop? Please save me the tears

    Okay so this action isn’t being done out of the good of his heart but to correct his own business

    Let’s not act like he’s some vanguard of independent artists 👍🏽 the sooner he can get put back in the big guys pocket for the next play, the sooner he can be comfortable flexing whatever material wealth he has

    You mean people do things because of their self interests?

    Like Kendrick taking Twitter jokes and calling Drake's pedophile so he can claim #1 rapper of his generation all the while parading Kodak around his "not a savior" album like a zoo exhibit and famous weird case Dr. Dre on stage for the Pop out?
    As if he cares of morality?

    That good of your own heart?
