    The following literally means nothing. It’s just a combination of words now that he’s scratched the itch of mentioning police. I’m not even being funny right now gang:

    Maybe we should try and help somebody or be somebody Instead of bein' somebody that makes the news So everybody can tweet about it And then they start to RIP about it And four weeks later nobody even speaks about it Damn, I just had to say my piece about it Oh you gotta love it But they scared of the truth so back to me showin' out in public

    This doesn’t actually mean anything

    Ur goal posting shifting bro. You asked me when has drake made any observation about race, then saying "well he didn't do it good enough"

    He just shouted out Mos on his last album

    This ain’t about pandering bc Drake just showed him love

    He’s having an objective conversation about consumerism in music and sadly we’re too far gone for people to react any other way than they are. Niggas are stupid lol

    mos was being purposefully condescending while making his point, it’s a shame he took that route otherwise it could’ve been a more productive conversation than the one we are currently having

    But I’m not suprised at mos sentiments considering he’s shared this before on radio stations, just some hater s***

    he remixes drake songs on stage and then comes and says “when is this empire going to end!!”

    you can’t act like what Mos is saying is crazy when we have three total moments in 20 years where he even scrapes the surface of this and this is about gun violence not race

    Tyler probably has even less than that tho lol

    Every million I gain an enemy or a cousin
    And people's feelings have changed ever since I became something
    Girls that becoming ladies, and my friends are having babies
    And babies are dropping dead in my city, this s*** is crazy
    And I don't know if speaking on it helps
    This is s*** that's on my mind I just keep it to myself
    You know

    Drake only raps about women

    It's pretty implied, you think he's talking bout police brutality as it relates to white people ?

    If I cover a prince song I can’t say he’s a pop artist? Lol

    Drake will make a song like pop style and spent ten years bragging about this very thing, just had the whole Michael Jackson thing in the Cole video but this is a diss? Lol

    drake of all people ain’t the one who can complain about saying things too mean. F*** out of here

    We wouldn’t have to guess if his brand science didn’t dictate that he can’t make whole verses and songs that are clearly about that type of stuff lol

    He literally made a song saying “I’m a Popstar”

    Yall seem to not understand the concept of Pop Rap, yalls favs Drake Cole and Kendrick do it

    But it’s still hip hop just mixed with more pop elements and tryna get radio play

    Perfect example of Pop RAP

    Difference is when Drake says stuff like that he's just bragging about being popular. Mos is literally saying Drake is not hip-hop. There's a difference, ain't no need to obtuse

    Reducing artists to labels like pop rap is dumb. You wouldn't call Scary Hours 3 pop rap.

    Again it's all under the umbrella of hiphop, which Mos seems to disagree and take issue with.

    A concept folk need to understand is this artist are versatile so one song could be a pop rap record then the next song is just straight bars

    So it’s not reducing artist to labels, there’s just multiple sub genres and artist this days take part in a lot of them. They on a trap song and then they in the some radio friendly s***

    I knew u were gonna post this.

    What's funny about this. Is that he literally starts the song off making fun of people who are doing what ur doing rn lol

    Lil' white b**** gon' say
    "You need to say something about that"
    "You need to say somethin' 'bout black—"
    B****, suck my—

    And then bringing back your point about how drake only brings up race issue to deflect from criticism is exactly what Tyler did in that song

    I'm probably a coon to your standard's based on this evidence
    Am I doin' enough or not doin' enough?

    And this song is not typical from Tyler at all, he doesn't mention race like this usually

    Drake will never cosplay as a mob boss enough to be more in the lineage of 50 than someone like Kanye lol

    50’s entire persona and story is in the shadow of the black plight

    But I like how we’re just going to “but he don’t rap about it either” lol 50 came to mind as someone who never outwardly made conscious music although I’m sure it’s there if I cared to look thru all of his work

    covering songs of an artist and then tryna s*** on it saying it’s some shopping mall surface level music is hypocritical and disingenuous

    Michael was great because he didn’t do just one thing remember that
