Cam's use of "whips and chains" in his bar is how Black people are now getting money and their new "whips and chains" are cars and jewelry. Turning struggle into triumph.
You can't tell me you getting that same "struggle into triumph" vibe from hearing "I whipped and chained you like an American slave"
So you believe if Drake said that exact line camron said there’d be no issue?

Probably not because it'd be more understood as a flex kinda line. It's likely why a lot of rappers who have used a line similar to that in the same context never caught flak for it.
Maybe Drake was just tapping into his white side when he said that line though

Because buying your shorty cars and jewelry definitely ain’t a flex.
Got it, Farrakhan
Yeah that line wild af especially since SZA is black
This s*** weird even if Kendrick or Jay Electronica said it in a sexual ir dont matter
Should not make lifht or fetishize literal transatlantic slavery
"Like an american slave" is what really hurts it
If it was just "like a slave" it would still be weird but a bit better with bdsm s***
And its even fouler since he isnt American - but even if an American did say it s*** would still be weird

Aight b go hit up the girl you tryna get at and tell her you tryna whip and chain her like an American slave and see how well that goes over for you.

I look at the line the same way I look at "Owe be back like 40 acres to Blacks" it's like yeah I know what you mean...but that s*** sounds off man like that ain't something the b****es tryna hear
Unless she into that freaky s***
I survived the 2018 Drake smear campaign this and the Halle Berry s*** is cake lmfao
If you don't get it just say that.
And also change your avy from Static cause you embarrassing yourself doing these mental gymnastics to not understand what I'm getting at with just the image alone. It's very simple. You got J Cole, a very clearly Black passing/Black presenting biracial individual. You know damn well nobody would question or look at him funny if he said the same line Drake did. There's a reason why Drake is getting looked at weird despite him being biracial and technically being able to say a line like that. A whole lotta rappers have done the "whips and chains and slaves" kinda line in the past. Nobody questions it. With Drake however it doesn't go over the same. I would hope you would be able to figure out why that is on your own.
What's understood is understood.
not reading all that. you have your opinion, i have mine

You do know that Drake refers to getting the woman in question whips (cars) and chains (jewelry) in that line, right?

If a nigga goes up to you and says he's tryna whip and chain you like an American slave you gonna be thinking about cars and jewelry?
inb4 you say yes as yet another desperate attempt to cape for Drake like you normally do.
If a nigga goes up to you and says he's tryna whip and chain you like an American slave you gonna be thinking about cars and jewelry?
every drake bar has a double meaning except this one for some reason
according to them at least
If a nigga goes up to you and says he's tryna whip and chain you like an American slave you gonna be thinking about cars and jewelry?
You're being obtuse and looking for a reason to be fake upset. You have to listen to the line within the context of the verse and the song. Drake's use of that line is in reference to getting the girl whips and chains, he just used the American slaves thing to tie it all together. I got that on my first listen.
Much worse has been said and anyone legitimately upset at the line is stupid.

Can't even just answer the very simple question lmao give it a f***in rest
Can't even just answer the very simple question lmao give it a f***in rest
This is the whole verse:
Verse 1: Drake
You b****es really get carried away
Makin' mistakes, then you beg me to stay
Got me wiggin' on you like I'm Arrogant Tae
You got my mind in a terrible place
Whipped and chained you like American slaves
Act like you not used to Sheraton stays
I met the nigga you thought could replace
How were there even comparisons made?
B****, next time, I swear on my grandmother grave
I'm slimin' you for them kid choices you made
Anyone with a drop of common sense will see this and understand the context of the line but yes, continue to be fake upset like you actually give that much of a f*** about the line.
!dream Drake as a slave chained up being whipped by a white man, award winning photography, black and white photo, 8k, high quality
If a nigga goes up to you and says he's tryna whip and chain you like an American slave you gonna be thinking about cars and jewelry?
This is a very stupid question because the line only works within the context of the song, you dimwit.

Your mental gymnastics in order to avoid admitting Drake dropped a corny ass line is honestly astounding lmao even within context that's some weird s*** to say

When did I say it wasn't corny? It is. Now what?
