    Does anyone have a link to the Akademiks stream about CLB? The one most of you were watching before the album dropped.

    Damn… making 50 racks a year after helping momma out this s*** would disappear… I am not a man I can’t do this on my own

    At a point, the money he was making from Degrassi was what paid their rent, paid for feeding, his mom and grandmother's d****, etc. His Uncle was always around but he never helped out financially because he never had enough money to.

    I think there was a behind the scenes doc they did for Degrassi where one of the producers of the show spoke about how she focused on him a lot because he told her that his role as Jimmy Brooks was an escape from his real life. Jimmy had both parents in his life and they had enough money to take care of him but Aubrey didn't. She even said that sometimes, after filming, he'd be relevant to go back home because of the reality of that situation.

    Drake's mom confirmed all of this herself. I'm sure if he ever does a documentary on his life/career, all these things would get brought up.

    There's a lot about his life that he hasn't spoken about expressly before so people just make assumptions.

    This was all news to me. I hope he shares more of that part of his life in future songs.

    Man Pipe Down really feels like Drake digging deep n asking himself how many songs does he have to make about a girl before she pipes down — or rather his conscience pipes down about her.

    That’s a good reflection on one of his favorite topics to write about

    I think it is hard to go back and do that now... when he is far removed from it and in a complete different mindset of where he is at in life. Probably not something that he wants to relive in his music nowadays. Bless him.

    And he has done it in his music already about his beginnings. His family. Mother and father. He has mentioned it a lot, even on this album, throughout songs and albums in his career.

    You are kind of exposing yourself in that regard... not gonna lie.

    Yup, then you have From Time and You & The 6 that pops into to my head immediately.

    We could probably go on and think of more.

    Chill. I’m well aware of him touching on most of this stuff already. There’s nothing being exposed here. My bad for not knowing some of the things mentioned in the longer post @thegreatdivine made 😒

    And that’s where the “I want him to go back to NWTS/TC vibes” becomes an issue, those eras are synonymous to where he was at and the stories he had to tell THEN.

    He’s in a totally different position and like you say, he’s far removed from those situations now.
