You call it giving a boost I call it riding waves/parasitic no different than hov
May 18, 2024it’s not parasitic artists have been doing cross region collabs for decades. sure after look alive drake worked with tay keith a lot and blockboy flamed out but that’s on blockboy he got more features off of it and ultimately drake gave him the alley oop. drake introduced a lot of people to migos and while they were already bubbling that set them up blow up in a big way when no label 2 dropped. drake really only collabs people he wants to put a shine on and are big representatives of a sound or region he’s not making songs with sideshow acts or memes like trinidad james or lil pump

Well Hov was his idol..
"I never cried when Pac died, but I probably will when Hov does"
I like to believe he's got more integrity than this but part of of me thinks Kenny made it racial to rile people up. Either way, it was chess move...

blueprint 3 was the progenitor of MCHG which is an extremely cringe attempt of being a forward thinking “modern” album…
JAY even got criticism for doing a collab with Kanye because he basically just rode his entire luxury rap thing that Kanye was tapped into for that era…

Water GiverIts just Kendrick continued point from Euphoria that Drake is not the same person that he was when they were cool back on TC to NWTS.
One of the 3 major points of Kendrick in all his disses that started on Euphoria is that Drake has been acting more and more stereotypically American black as the years go on when that is not who he is nor does he have any bases in it. And that Drake is a completely different person now than back then.
Such as his Canada lines, how many features till you feel like you black enough line, you have to adapt to America to get big etc.
Idiots think its colorism bars just like Drakes dumbass who also missed the point of that and multiple other songs/lines, but its deeper and its not about him being mixed & its clear as day, especially on Euphoria & Not Like Us (which the title of NLU is even on that subject, hes literally not like us while trying so hard to be like us).
Yes Drake collabing with these artists does help them out to whatever degree, BUT people forget it ALSO HELPS DRAKE as well. It got Drake in more clubs, got Drake in the "streets" when street niggas used to hate Drake the most, changed Drakes soft & "Drake the type of nigga" image & made him more popular with black people in general.
And yes, collabing with artists outside your element isnt a bad thing in itself, but when YOU start pretending thst youre also of that same element as the artists youre collabing with just because youre around them, thats when it gets fishy. And we would and do clown literally everyone else that does that. Such as Post Malone, the random white kid that pops up every few years pretending to be drill, Tecca etc.
There is a clear difference of Drake after Nothing Was the Same, nothing was literally not the same afterwards, and thats one of Kendrick's point. And Kendrick futher point is that he let it get to his head to where he thinks he is actually like those street artists. Pump faking & a poser.
You (Drake) become more and more "American black" & you become more and more of a sicko as the years go on which this is not who you were at all when I knew you.
And again, he gives the most examples in Euphoria & Not Like Us.
Drake is not like us, but he is trying so damn hard to be like us. And it weird and pathetic. Just be you.
And theres multiple examples as well even outside Kendrick. Such as the Wayne call interview when he first signed him "keep it Canadian", to Drake living in a upper middle class neighborhood and being a literal actor, Drake being more for the ladies & downbad guys but now its about guns and mob life etc.
Thats what the "angle" is about. And it started on Euphoria. And goes into the point of Kendrick saying youre not true to yourself, & deeper than just that, you are also lost in the sauce way too much.
Drake, for years now, is trying very hard "to be down".
all true and what many of us have been saying

yeah i get what you’re saying jay was definitely forcing the whole art thing and drake even said he wasn’t feeling it but people weren’t villainizing him for it like they are with drake working with more artists

yeah i was just gonna say this lol
drake is way more egregious with what he does, if JAY collabed with Cudi and then started trying to hum and ape his sound then he would’ve gotten called out for it
i think people let drake slide with some plausible deniability due to him being somewhat racially vague honestly
if someone like Carti for example started rapping like a Griselda nigga, people would get on his ass for it lol
