The narrative needs to be flipped

Drake is the GATEKEEPER to which media personality blows up… Which interview in Hip Hop recently has blown up as much as this Bobbi one? I’ll wait

They need and want Drake, not he the other way around

I respect Elliott but he a weirdo for dissing Drake for no reason. Screams out jealousy and now he talking about go time like he bouta do something. Take the L and keep it moving OG.

He shifted the power dynamics

Any kind of interview Elliot has done since Drake has been a silly pile of mid

the age gap between 36 and 52 year old men 100% allows for the grandpa jokes.

Modman ting

His On the Radar Freestyle just crossed 5M views on YouTube. The interview with Bobbi is at 6M views on YouTube. That's the power he holds and these media people know it. That's why they're upset he isn't tapping in with them.

He's already playing the victim.

Watch him cry about how he was just trying to protect "our culture" whenever he gets asked about this situation with Drake. He'll pretend like it wasn't his b****-ass, entitled, selfish nature that caused him to act out the way he did.

I thought it was Harvey Elliott Came in here thinking why tf would Drake have beef with a 20 year old Liverpool player

Elliot def gonna spin this as some Drake ain't pushing/helping the rap needle s***. Chubb's gotta let his IG stories @Elliot fly soon come.

I agree. Entitlement has him acting out. Drake doesn't owe him anything. And Drake has done multiple interviews with Elliott. It's refreshing to step outside for a bit for a non-serious interview.

That's the only angle he can play to make himself not look bad and that's exactly what he'll do.

I hope Drake doesn't give him or any of these media folks any of his time or energy moving forward. Just focus on you and let them do/say whatever they want to.

My only thing is; if somebody like Elliot who doesn't have that type of weight in 2023 can create this type of noise; what happens if Budden/Charlamagne/Envy/Nore/Ebro hell even Akademiks decide they have the same opinion on Drake. S*** could flip real quick seeing how none of them have any interviews/ interactions. Media personalities and old heads against you is not gonna be a good look.

My only counter to this argument is… that’s how it’s been drakes whole career 🤣

I mean what is he supposed to do aside from collect social security like y’all are gonna say lol

He an industry vet getting lapped by younger people so he adjusting his play? What’s the issue? Especially when Drake has done the same infinite times to this day lol

Although the reaction to the Bobbi s*** by Elliot was weird

P****

Is Bobbi a hip hop journalist? Lol

But it hasn’t
Drake gets 2x as much love from old heads as he does hate. Can y’all please stop with this narrative

As far as the Elliot thing, I agree with Drake though, and what Envy and Charlamagne said. Elliot should not be the one doing these run up interviews. He should’ve have a protege, or someone younger trying to make it as a journalist do these things. He looks nuts out there with Kai Cenet n them. I’m just like like 8-9 years older than Kai and I wouldn’t want to be around niggas his age for prolonged periods of time

Most people are on Drakes side in this, not Elliot’s. Media personalities hanging up on Drake would just backfire because it comes off as entitled.

Three out of the five people referenced in the post I was responding to have had various issues with drake that are very public and pretty baseless lol. (Charlemagne just openly doesn’t like drake, Ebro finds any narrative to latch onto and use as ammo against drake, Budden dropped so many diss tracks on drake that I lost count..)

Maybe you’re talking about old heads in hip hop as a whole? I just meant hip hop media specifically.

Nigga all this is bullshit
As long as the music hits he’ll be fine
All them f***os you mentioned don’t give music
F*** em glorified news reporters

Could be for now. Imagine if Charlamagne came out today and instead of low-key backing Drake up he said Drake don't f*** with Black culture or Rap culture and that he's refused every major Rap outlet for interviews or press runs but his last couple interviews within the last 4 years have been with white non-rap people on some comedy s***. Mob mentality takes over and every Drake hater and clout chaser will run with that narrative. Elliot prob smiling ear to ear seeing his replies and follower count RN. I know y'all saw what Funk Flex was doing during the Meek situation.

Crazy how some people call Drake insecure.

Same people would fold in less than a day after seeing random people just talking smack about them on social media
