    "Donald Glover, AKA Childish Gambino, is an American actor, comedian, writer, and musician. He was raised in Stone Mountain, Georgia, a heavily populated white suburban neighborhood and his family was the only black family in the area. "

    Tupac grew up in baltimore with a black panther upbringing
    Kanye has black panther upbringing and didn't grow up in a predominantly white neighborhood + chicago has gang ties everywhere

    The show Atlanta alone gives him a black card stop it

    Is Uzi going to be conscious

    Uzi said “Free Palestine” a couple of weeks ago as a matter of fact

    Drake is a competent storyteller. Actually a pretty good storyteller. The fact that he hasn't incorporated socially conscious lyrics into his music is pretty disappointing. Especially knowing the bad s*** that goes on in some of the hoods in Toronto.

    Despite Drake spending most of his career repping Toronto I can't say I ever came out of a Drake album knowing anything about Toronto. Besides that Drake comes from Toronto.

    cmon bro isn't Drake saying tings enough for you

    I know but that's not really Drake's lane.

    It'd be one thing if Drake was rapping like J Cole then "switched it up" when it was convenient. I'd agree with you 100% if that were the case.

    But when we already know that Drake's not a conscious type of rapper and he prefers to help Black causes outside music, it just seems unwarranted.

    Wayne is way less conscious than Drake bro. And again im not saying drake has to speak on anything outside of what he does, it's just dope that someone like Wayne, who was in his prime actually took time to address those things and those things set hum apart

    Georgia Bush is a classic wayne record. So is Misundestood. It's not hard to have one of those records out of an entire career.

    If drake can rap about being a mob boss he can rap about anything

    Drake actually has talked about struggles that although aren’t unique to AA culture it’s definitely prominent such as being raised by a single parent while watching them struggle and finding acceptance in environments where you’re a minority but people are too dense to recognize that

    His leaks usually have more "substance" Rap too, even if its not related to "gang s***".

    Nah black people DEFINITELY claim drake cause he actually associates himself us.

    LOGIC on the other hand

    i dont mean every black person but it's obvious there's a large amount enough to warrant addressing it and drake does as well

  • Sep 28, 2021

    He who won’t be named doesn’t speak on it cause he doesn’t feel like he’ll do such heavy social commentary justice, and rightfully so given his upbringing

    If anything it’s a lil worrisome to think he should simply because of his race. And I’m glad he who won’t be named understands the nuance of this enough to restrain himself

    Literally what does a year have anything to do with anything weirdo.

    Reality doesnt stop just because you want it to.

    No one is saying that should be the only music that should exist either.

    Just like the same people that keep pretending covid is over n old news when it keeps getting stronger than ever 💀

    are you f***ing braindead

    "But after all the s*** that happened in this country last year, i would expect the biggest rap album of the year to have at least one lyric mentioning or addressing what occurred."

    Fellas are in here saying "must not be named" like this man's Voldemort

  • Sep 28, 2021

    Anyways, I gave my 2 cents.

    Given that there's been so many coonish things said and done by rappers over the years in and out the booth, I just don't see what's so bad about a popular rapper doing things more privately.

    Think about it, you got a nigga like Westside Gunn using Hitler and Nazi symbols as a gimmick but ya'll got more smoke for Drake because he's more popular.

    S*** makes no sense to me but, then again, I don't really idolize artists like that outside of music so maybe it's just me.

    “Cops are killin' people with they arms up
    And your main focus is tryna harm us?”
    Man brought up social issues during his beef with Meek

  • I would say now it's easier to get criticized when your view isn't with the masses either which is why he doesn't speak on it.

    The Twitter verse overanalyzes every thing that isn't exactly what they want it to be.
