bro read this s*** too, it's another post he made.

this dude gets deep asf wtf, really enjoyed reading this as it's something I've always pondered about.

reddit.com/r/Drizzy/comments/172bwy5/imagine_being_drakes_therapist_and_knowing

really puts us average stans to shame

bro here listening to tracks and doing this

fr

it’s a great outro and i really like the verse but it totally wasn’t needed on rich baby daddy of all songs, pisses me off that it’s there

drake is a really interesting person to me. it's strange because I see a lot of the same flaws he has in myself, which is probably why I feel like I relate to his music a lot.

I honestly don't feel like Drake is as confident as he portrays and under all the bravado is just a hurt soul seeking love in a way

idk, but yeah that post on the top of this page really got me thinking. s*** is deep af

we need that man to post more breakdowns cause damn that was fun to read

same and at the end of the day when i hear a track like 7969 or tried our best it just breaks my heart

he is a true artist in the sense that he pours out all his pain into his work and that is how real artists express themselves

I dont wanna sit through rich baby daddy to hear that greatness

read this exchange from that reddit thread:

"Very highly introspective. You actually confirmed most things I was thinking listening to the album. 95% of the music listening world were just looking for the next 'hit', nobody was reading between the lines that this is somewhat a call for help and general pain when it comes to these relationships and sense of self.

Even if does go for the 'botched IG thots', it's actually deeper than that. I'm not sure how else to expand on that but I think you get what I mean.

What are your thoughts on potential disses towards X and how deep does it go when it comes to Kanye? Like them being 'cool' for the charity concert only a couple years ago. A lot of it doesn't make sense with them two..."

Then the OP replied:

"At the end of the day you’re taking a half black, Jewish boy. Who was searching for approval and popularity which he didn’t even fully garner on Degrassi. He is telling you on songs like How about Now while everyone thought he was living the life he was dealing with “oh word true s***? Then ask if we could listen to ludacris. Then car rides made me feel like I was losing it. Ya made me feel like I ain’t have it like that. Or I was I was average like that. Started drinking was more than I used to. People for habits like that”. So without getting to psychotherapist on you, he has said from the jump he was insecure, f***ed over by the people who wanted attention from, and using alcohol to cope. Now you make him the biggest artist in the world and he meets his idols and has relationship: with them…and they turn on him too?! I think truly a lot of it is hurt and at it’s core he’s still a mixed guy, craving acceptance not necessarily validation and instead you have blogs portraying him as a pedophile, that he is this and that. And ultimately I think he can’t retract into the I’m damaged by my upbringing and programming so his buffer is I’m a gangster and try me and chubbs will teach you a lesson."

This level of a***yzation is really cool to me and humanizes the music for me. I really genuinely hope Drake finds happiness in his life

Icl I feel like he should or maybe 3-4 years let’s see how those people who been s***ting on Drake will do hip hop will be in a graveyard by then

To me he seems like a person that got rich enough to live out all of his childhood dreams. Doing everything he ever dreamt of while growing up

Something like marriage probably isnt there because he never experienced it growing up. im 26 and for a while wondered why I never felt the need to get married even though I was in an extremely long relationship and I eventually figured out that its because my parents marriage was so terrible

yeah i read that. i done that thread top to bottom

amen to your last sentence brother

It's also a cautionary tale of sorts.... Yes Drake is living out his rap dreams, and from the outside looking in he looks like the coolest person on Earth, but there's obviously a lot of turmoil inside his mind as we can just tell from the music.

It's like while on his mission for acceptance and validation he forgot who he truly was and the image that he portrays towards the public isn't the real him.

I can imagine the trust issues are probably insane and I think the reason why he chooses to f*** with these women that people seem under his caliber is that there are some seriously deep rooted insecurities of self worth.

Idk.

and I feel you about the marriage part bro, my parents as well

I read somewhere that what people subconsciously look for in relationships is what they know from their life.
So if their parents were split up/divorced, you may not look for that stability of a healthy longterm relationship as it is a foreign, strange thing for you

damn. this just f***ed me up lol

idk how i feel about these songs being about a platypus but for all the dogs where the dogs are the woman who’ve played him is a crazy twist.

makes his burning bridges comment more clear

7969 sounds like i’m travelling through the galaxy

Been a week already jheeez

the OP refers to KTT1 golden days

He stole my flow

ktt2.com/who-is-this-baby-m-that-keeps-being-mentioned-by-drake-32559763

Reminds me of what the atmosphere of a new planet would sound like. It has this nostalgic vibe of early 2000s. A ghostly futuristic yet ominous synth, I always think of the PS2 intro:

"To keep it real, I wasn't really gangster 'til now. I was livin' on a cloud, I was quiet as a mouse. I was in the club gettin' lost in the crowd. Wasn't doin' what I wanted to, I do what was allowed" 😭

This line is real and we need more of this

Who / what’s that at the back of the Hate Survivor hoodie on drake IG story?
