    All because he lost a hip hop battle he antagonized Kendrick for.

    Couldn’t have said it better myself. As someone who isn’t black and isn’t part of the culture, the beef lead to me noticing so many awesome black creators I would have never had the chance to see because of the algorithm. It truly amplified black voices in a way that’s rarely seen and moved not just the culture, but the world’s culture. People in other countries were listening to Not Like Us and were making songs to that free Metro beat. That’s wild!

    This is the most direct video I've seen, so far, that really touches on the psychology behind what Drake is, who he isn't and his pathetic (but potentially damaging) attempt to re-litigate and overwrite a cultural verdict from black America, made worse by the fact that international audiences delivered the same verdict and also 'voted' for Kendrick in the club and on the streets.
    This is also the first channel I've watched that a.) recognises the seething hatred and contempt that narcissists hold towards the very people they imitate and the lack of fundamental respect that they have for any identity that they try to co-opt b.) that actually takes that hatred seriously and addresses it.

    Calling Drake soft, is an insult to things that are soft.

    Drake is showing just how out of touch, corporate-centered, self-absorbed, truly not for Hip Hop Culture-just a Vulture of profit-he is, and always has been.
    Drake's whole persona is utilizing being Black American adjacent(via his father) and using it to gain access to Blackness while appropriating a Culture to amass wealth, while cosplaying something he has NEVER attempted to sincerely embrace, amalgamate or assimilate into out of genuine respect for his Black paternal lineage.
    Drake is about assimilating into Hollywood and capital gain-BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY.

    somehow my cynicism and 2024 induced depression still had me feeling like he might come out on top at the end of this… your words convinced me otherwise. it’s a wrap! kings dead

    SUBSCRIBED!! For years I’ve been saying Drake was faking it. I feel like singing Drake didn’t get him where he wanted to be, so he pretended to be indulged in Hip Hop & Black culture, but was really wearing our culture like it’s a costume!

    Oh man, when I watched you on the Culture United 2 panel I really dug what you had to say. I wanted to checkout your channel, but it slipped my mind. Now I'm kicking myself for not finding this channel sooner. I love the crescendo in this video. The ending was perfect.
