Folks was itt championing those guys that's why I said that. But you're right, Elliot isn't the gatekeeper he thinks he is

still waiting on the go time tho 😭

more like time to go 🤷‍♂️

Elliot does this alot. He did it with Kendrick when he did an interview with Zane Lowe during damn. It’s an entitlement thing Drake doesn’t like. Especially after he gave him interviews in the past. But they won’t pass the torch so Drake then has to go to who is relevant and will keep him relevant moving forward.

Look how they treated thug and uzi lol. Two artist Drake loves, why would he continue to give them looks when they were shading his peers?

Drake doesn’t need anyone but his fans. Lol. The game has changed. DJs don’t break or sustain artist anymore. Blog era is over. Either adapt of die. People gravitate to content that they like and right now they like the white weird chick. They like the what you wearing my boy guy. Lol.

I feel you. That’s my exact line of thinking. Either we are gonna get some major fallout from this or it’ll be swept away and they’ll make up but this isn’t one of things I see just fading. There will be some spillage from this. I’m curious on how it plays out

Elliot comes from a time where a journalist opinion on hip-hop mattered

Thanks to social media, and DSP’s, they simply don’t. What matters is personality, star quality. Without it, you’re just someone with an opinion which makes you irrelevant, hence where YN is today.

People still by and large, want to be told what to like. Groupthink is still very real. That’s why playlist are so popular. But they want that from personalities, not old writers. Elliot is struggling with being in an era where your opinion just isn’t enough to warrant attention. Everyone with a Twitter and IG has an opinion, what makes Elliot so special?

Him jumping off the porch like this is actually not the worst thing in the world for him.

what’s there to discuss terrible writing production rapping features it’s a disasterclass in music making

You waited 45 minutes for this sis. I mean you keep bringing it up. If there is nothing to discuss then why did you bring it up?

Y’all niggas still going? 👆👆👆🤨🤨🤨

Now Drake gotta sit down with Joe I need that convo in my life

Same maybe Elliot goes to Kendrick who knows we will see how it goes

look at trippies nipple

Drakes verse on Churchill Downs is aging like fine wine

r/ovology over here

“40 did you get the message? ‘Cause I just checked my phone and I didn’t get it.”

He really threw shade at Angie and Sway now

Drake?

Elliott really had the audacity to like this tweet. You don’t get to just talk sideways and not expect retaliation.

This literally has 1 like too

Also this dude d*** riding. Elliot came at him first over the pettiest of reasons, it’s not petty at all to respond back

Didn’t even notice that

I’ve never seen a situation that drake is in with other artists. Literally he gets clowned on if he doesn’t respond to people that diss him or he gets called petty/over the top when he does respond.

Thing is though, this is how Elliot should have been moving

In this era, your opinion matters none as a journalist unless there’s some entertainment/ salacious quality attached to you

Look at how Elliot is in the hip hop news cycle right now. Him going to rolling loud was an unequivocal success. If he dropped a pod tonight it’d be way more likely to do numbers and resonate.

No one really cares (never have tbh) abt the art. They care abt the individual presenting the art, now moreso than ever.

Facts, these media personalities d*** ride the hell out of these artists to still get s*** on the first chance the artist gets.So you might as well give real opinions about these artists from the start.

Elliot said oh it’s go time like he about to spin some s***
