When did Kendrick stop being your GOAT?

shout to young palestine she with the gang

Or biggie claiming he was broke as a kid and weren’t getting fed

That’s basically what y’all are arguing about here

Even though Drake code switches a lot, he’s still black at the end of day just like Latto

Y’all are implying he’s putting on his “blackness” when talks tough but nothing outside of that

How is what I said pearl clutching?

didn’t even bother replying to that goofy s*** because they’re just trying to derail the topic

1) I was responding to the video where Drake was mocking the accent, he was a kid, mad ignorant but I guarantee everyone here including I said s*** we didn’t mean as a kid for approval of those around us.

2) you can change as a grown up and become multifaceted in how to present yourself. growing up means you can do/say what you want without giving a f*** what others say, they clowned him for being soft now y’all saying he being fake tough. who gives af about y’all’s opinion on what he wants to represent. A rapper of all people too

3) ya just sound like yall taking this quite personally, so it sounds like ya clutching pearls over this and my comment

the tweet not even showing anything just yapping to stir a narrative

Drake really gonna be one of the goats when it’s all said and done

damn

“ I said s*** we didn’t mean as a kid for approval of those around us.”

lol bro did you even watch the video? He wasn’t saying s*** for approval, he was speaking on how he actually felt. The other whites at the table said it was interesting. Why would he go against them if he’s seeking approval lol?

“You can change as you grown up”

Sure I guess lol but niggas that start repping gangs and s*** like that after they’re already grown have always been clowned for that. Idk why this would be any different lol

And to add on to this, we all said dumb s*** at 17 but I would never s*** on my community. If you were that type of kid, more power to you, I hope you healed

I can say I was mad homophobic as a teenager, and said stupid s*** and ideas all around about my culture growing up cuz I thought I knew s***

Only to be humbled by this as I was growing up, and embracing it all as I’ve grown up

The moral policing is what I find strange, especially when we talking about a grown person now who probably thinks way different than what they said as a teenager

Dot unified these gangs on stage but that was cool ..

That latto vid is cursed asl wtf i feel itchy

Because white America dont care about none of that + the white side is why they love him so much

RT

No one is arguing the validity of Drake being black.. atleast im not..the critique is him deliberately playing into a character or characters to resonate more with different black audiences. You can argue that comes with the territory of being a rapper and you are right to an extent but there is a reason he and others get put under fire for it.

He decided to play into this tough guy image you can’t be mad at people pulling up receipts..

I’m not on the stance that many on platforms like twitter that Biracial people have to prove their blackness but people are going to look at you funny when you have a new voice, attitude, personality depending on what room you walk into or who you are around or what song you are on. Especially when it comes to an artist like Drake where one of his “attributes” was how “real” and “personal” his music is or was

Code switching implies that you switch not just from different voices but also different personalities that are still you.. just depending on your environment. The critique is not that he’s code switching from “suburban” to hood. It’s that he’s putting on a whole entire “code” that’s not him as a front.

It’s not really moral policing. Nobody is saying he’s a bad person for this or anything. Just that he’s fake.

When people bring up Kankan or Summrs being fake we all laugh but for Drake yall niggas make up these sob stories

Yah man cuz being ignorant young, growing up embracing it all when older means you’re fake, you got it bro

I actually don’t have any issues wit the Beetles I just never got into the hype

Looking down on a community and not being apart of it growing up and then using it to further your career is def an example of being fake lol.
