Mos Def can go f*** himself, screw that c*** tbh
Mos is wrong but you need to calm down
Mos is wrong but you need to calm down
He got me heated
I hate it when the greats s*** on younger talented artists
Asked a straightforward question. You acting like I brought up sales or something.
You also didn’t answer it.
Also you bring up his “biggest” songs is literally bringing up numbers and stats…..
Yea I deleted that s*** when I reread the question my apologies
Drake was remixing Lykke Li, Santigold and Peter Bjorjn and John songs on his big debut project.
One of the biggest songs on his debut album was Find Your Love and every year since then he’s been having at least 2-3 pop songs to an album.
Drake even said it on Calabasas “Mike never tried to sing like Pac. Pac never tried to sing like Mike.”
He clearly wants to exist in both lanes he even acknowledges competing with Taylor Swift on SH3 lol
They confuse his output from 2018 to now as his career. From 2009-17 was making pop hits with damn near every album and thats a major reason he's in the top position he's in rn.
Find your love, Take care, Hold on were going home, Hotline bling, passionfruit, in my feelings etc

This ain't the typa s*** to make a grown man hot bruh
This ain't the typa s*** to make a grown man hot bruh
If no one seen the interview, I wouldn’t care. But its top 10 trending on Twitter lol
Niggas: it’s about the art not the stats
Also niggas: Well the biggest songs were the pop songs
I’m logging off
Drake truly will never be enough
its pretty sad to see hip hop reject him at this point

I only brought up Find Your Love being a big song on his debut just to make the point that Drakes always made a conscious attempt to appeal to audiences outside of rap.
He is a rapper. He is also a pop star

I'm sure Drake will be fine without Mos Def's blessing, in 2024 no less

True, good point.
I love how mad the pop label still makes people in 2024
As if many of the most acclaimed, influential and successful artists in the world aren't making pop music
you said what i got around to just now
niggas still have this weird superiority complex about pop music, it’s over

This is not what I said lol

In Drake's case, it's only to point out the scope of his audience, not to dismiss him or write him off (idek how that's possible)

Niggas will have the superiority complex while also talking about rap like it’s pop.
Like if you look down on pop s*** so bad why do you care about what’s being played outside and who has hits lol
Drake truly will never be enough
its pretty sad to see hip hop reject him at this point
He’s fine it’s not that deep it just comes with the territory of being the guy lol a lot of his predecessors got the same treatment in different ways
And also niggas acting like Mos came out of the gate talkin on Drake when the interviewer was the one that brought him up lol
more og rappers should come out and be honest about this
drake aint trash, he's likable and formulaic and pop
Niggas will have the superiority complex while also talking about rap like it’s pop.
Like if you look down on pop s*** so bad why do you care about what’s being played outside and who has hits lol
Because pop is viewed as being both "feminine" and "too commercial" to the average dweeb online so it's a go-to insult to discredit certain artists
Being anti-pop in 2024 is cooked beyond belief and 99% of the time is rooted in sexism and/or pretentiousness
And also niggas acting like Mos came out of the gate talkin on Drake when the interviewer was the one that brought him up lol
Also Drake subbed Mos a few months back for no reason lol
