Wipe Drake's c***from your eyes and learn how to read. If that's what you got from any of this your stanning has reached a point of serious mental illness and a lack of reading comprehension and I highly recommend you get that checked out before continuing further in this discussion.
Shut up, you weirdo. You made this thread out of no where and for no reason. You got all the responses you could have wanted in the first page.
Yes, you think it's odd that Drake doesn't make negro spirituals with his huge platform. Good for you. Now, move on.
You’re making this some type of speak out competition lol
That’s weird
Again if that's all you're taking from any of this that's a you problem.
Even Taylor Swift has gotten more political than Drake man
Like I'm really not mad that he doesn't make songs about it. Maybe he really does feel like he has no place speaking about it being that he's from Canada. Maybe he feels he doesn't have the range to speak about it. But like...you can't get outdid by America's favorite white girl. That's just sad.
Its kinda wild that Lil Wayne, the guy who has literally said hes never experienced racism in his life, has still made sociopolitical songs lmao
Drake has donated to black causes and made statements on BLM but only when it became bankable to do so.
Even Taylor Swift has gotten more political than Drake man

You don't mind yet you're here saying how he shouldn't get outdone by Taylor Swift when it comes to speaking out on political issues. You don't mind, that's why you made a thread about it in the Music section and got mad when it got moved here. You really can't make this s*** up, lmao.
(Drake raps about politics and social issue)
Niggas: Drake you aren't even American. You were on Degrassi. You grew up rich. You didn't start from the bottom. You're not even black.
(Drake doesn't rap about politics and social issues)
Niggas:
In conclusion lol, this summarizes that his core fanbase are white americans, even non-american white people can get behind civil issues and talk about real-life issues.
He simply does not want to give up his white-suburban fanbase that are questioning their own racist behavior. If Drake gives off a hint of blackness this album then poof they’re gone, hence why you have him proposing this soft lover boy image. Couple years back when it was IYRTITL season he def had all the darkskin niggas shooting at the camera lens with their hands and hood niggas in look alive. Guess its time to ditch that so his fanbase dont get it twisted

Again if that's all you're taking from any of this that's a you problem.
You just made it a problem that Taylor Swift, an American pop plant, has endorsed an American candidate whereas Drake, a Canadian rapper, hasn’t
That’s not weird?
He's more than fine. His career is fine. The few times he has spoken about, he's been met with criticism from the same black community he tried to speak out on behalf of and people always use him being Jewish, biracial and Canadian against him so he doesn't speak out.
Kendrick and J. Cole speak out, let them be your GOATs if that's the case. Drake will be fine, I promise you. Don't worry
To me that sounds like you want drake to b**** up because he took some heat from the crowd.
This is no diffrent from the millions of kids who are biriacial and grow up in a school not feeling white enough for the white kids and black enough for the black kids.
You definetly know what you felt enough of when you signed to birdman, lil wayne and cash/young money
So acting like you’re the celine dion of canada who isnt adjacent to these issues when
To answer the title: maybe?
Does it matter? No
Would he get s*** on if he tried?
Being Canadian, (kinda) Jewish, light skin, no one really trying to hear present discourse from him
These people insulted him when he made Started from the Bottom because he wasn't living off food stamps as a child. These are the same people who will immediately pivot to him being mixed race, being Jewish and being Canadian as criticisms to undermine his right to speak out on anything they consider black but yet they want him to be a Martin Luther King for them now because he's famous and he's supposed to. He won't and they're just gonna have to deal with that s***.
You clearly are pretty delusional as to how the tolerance for staying silent on liberal issues has changed over the years. After Trump's win, it started to become a big deal for celebrities to not stay silent on that with their fanbases and the media. Don't forget celebrities Justin Timberlake and Taylor Swift got into a big amount of trouble for staying silent on these issues. Drake was just protecting the bag when he finally spoke on it.

Spot on
Kinda sad this is where some are at to criticize his career
Just cause some people don’t wanna hear it doesn’t make it trauma p***.
Trauma p*** just another pseudo woke buzzword and you stans adopted it to defend drake. It is what it is
Baby switched his flow a few times. You’re a casual fan that mainly listen to Drake and artists associated with Drake so I wouldn’t expect for you to actually listen to his music.
His music is only good for one setting
Its kinda wild that Lil Wayne, the guy who has literally said hes never experienced racism in his life, has still made sociopolitical songs lmao
Drake has donated to black causes and made statements on BLM but only when it became bankable to do so.
And you're mad about it. Poor you.
Can we name 1 song that ever fixed a political issue or social issue?
Weak argument

He can never win, lmao. They will find any angle to be mad at him.
Spot on

They running out of things to criticize
This their last stand lmao
Drake stans will claim it doesn’t matter but then go and try to tear down that type of music and those who make it.
If it doesn’t matter just say cool and keep it moving
Even Taylor Swift has gotten more political than Drake man
Like I'm really not mad that he doesn't make songs about it. Maybe he really does feel like he has no place speaking about it being that he's from Canada. Maybe he feels he doesn't have the range to speak about it. But like...you can't get outdid by America's favorite white girl. That's just sad.
EXACTLY!!!!! AND MONETARILY OUTDONE!
RIH DONATED 2 mil !
Tons of white celebs donated millions!
And you're mad about it. Poor you.
You're the one in here sucking drakes d*** nonstop
No one is as mad about it as you
I've never considered Drake a legitimate artist so I don't care lol
To me that sounds like you want drake to b**** up because he took some heat from the crowd.

So, essentially, you're mad that Drake, who identifies as black, benefits from all that comes with that but isn't speaking out as much as you'd like him to? Got it.
Now, move on because that won't be changing anytime soon. See how easy that is?
