Drake is not nearly as recognizable as his stans wish he was

Grandmas wouldn’t recognize Drake as they would Kanye, 50, Em etc

It’s why the MJ comparisons is asinine

I blame Billboard

Snoop is a meme! He is not a staple in hip hop because of his work. If White America didn’t need a mascot for the pot smoking, approachable hip hop hipster, Snoop would still be in public housing.

The irony of him dissing niggas like Kanye is that he’s so ed that he doesn’t even realize that he’s the figurehead of the things he consistently calls him out for, such as “selling out” etc.. He actually thinks he’s made it “being real” lol Snoop is a stage clown for White America, and a mascot they’ve been using since forever to promote ignorance, lame gang-banging culture, ation, and all the other corny detrimental shxt to the black community that he represents.

He’s one of the main embodiments of what White America think Blacks considers “cool” when in actuality we think he’s one of the lamest niggas to ever live. For instance, Jay-Z thinks Snoop is one of the corniest niggas ever, but of course he’ll never say it.

Snoop is accepted by us because he’s corny. He’s a joke to us, it’s his appeal. What’s sad is that many ed Blacks haven’t even figured this out, which is why they legitimize him, because they can’t make sense of why someone so corny with mediocre talent is so commonly revered as a legend in our community.

A perfect example of this is when Three 6 Mafia won the Oscar for their song “It’s Hard Out Here For A Pimp” 😩

White America really thought that was Black ppl shxt smh, this is an example of what White people think we Blacks think is “cool”

With social media, I feel like they’re now able to pick our brains a little more. They’re now coming around to knowing a bit more. They’re definitely not spot on, but they’re moving in the right direction with all the critical acclaim and awards bestowed upon hip hop artists like Kendrick (even though I personally don’t fw him that much or even know too many blacks that do) Future etc..

With that being said, these artists are still bad for us, because they’re still chained to the democratic plantation, and promotes these ideologies to the black community.

Still, someone like Kendrick is tremendously better as a representative than someone like Snoop.

I’m sorry you’re just flat out wrong.

You think grandmas are recognizing 50 CENT over Drake? Nah man, that ain’t happening. You ask a grandma who 50 cent is they’ll try and make a joke about quarters or some s***. Maybe they’ve heard the name but they aren’t recognizing his face.
