He went from a privlaged white kid with hand outs ppl helping him and paying his way to the top as you can see in video that’s a rich place not the “middle class “ like I’m just mind blown how is this a decent video in anyway?

In this track, “Started from the Middle”, Mr Harlow illustrates his rather mediocre come up in the music industry. The track title is a play on Drake’s popular hit Started From The Bottom, in that Mr Harlow acknowledges his privileged upbringing and does not claim to have had a hard or tedious childhood. He started from the Middle.
Dont understand why people dont see that Drake is talking about how he came from the bottom of the rap game and hes not talking about life. Its supposed to be a more inspirational connecting song for people lol
I love how he acknowledges that he’s a kid from the suburbs and raps about that and makes clever jokes with his lyrics he doesn’t try to act hard like some rappers nowadays
Like some rappers.? Stfu. Those black men are coming from real hoods, poverty, life etc. You view them as hard because they scare you. He has no reason to act hard, that wasn’t his lifestyle .
Incredible, One thing I love about Jack is that he's been confident in his music even back in 2013 it seems. He has every right to be where he is right now, such a determined individual at a young age. Props!
I beg to differ, drakes moms health was deteriorating growing up and his father was a drug addict who ultimately ended up in prison, when he was on degrassi he was the only one in the family with a job so he was basically providing for his own mother as a child. Income was probably around 50 bands give or take a year.

You can see the quality was getting better from some of his older song and videos. The writing seems smoother and pretty funny but also witty. I thought he was going to be saying started from the middle now I'm here but he actually got pretty creative and didn't rely on that joke too much.
Reppin the 502 to the fullest. As a Louisville native who stays tapped in, Jack really is louisville to the fullest & reps & shouts us out any chance he gets. Good to see him out here living the dream.
I’m not kidding you. I was taking a Train from Georgia to Florida and I found this kid on Spotify. He was 17yr old and I told everyone about him. I listened to his early EPs (they included this track lol) Years later he dropped what’s poppin and I was shook LOL
Jack grew up very privileged in the Highlands of Louisville...don't get mistaken people he grew up very comfortably...and the line where cafeteria food being really bad is hilarious bc the food at Atherton highschool where I also was in the same grade nd school as him was notoriously inedible it was very bad lunch awesome how humble he is tho to not hide any of that I remember all the students show other peopel his stuff saying he will be something one day and look at him now famous as hell good for him its rare celebrity's stay humble
Drake is the kind of success story that encourages me as a underground artist with a small following. Seeing how he’s developed his skills and slowly blown up after seizing each and every opportunity he’s been giving has been inspirational! Mans has quickly become a mainstay in the industry and for good reason. Dude is too nice! I know if I put in the work, I can reach a larger audience some day too, but for now, I’m happy being a supporter. My turn will come too. Salute to Drake🔥
it’s actually crazy watching these seeing how much he’s changed in so many ways but yet still seems to be the same & true to himself. it’s honestly so inspiring watching this next to his new videos

Facts
Some where between not bad but not good enough
Puberty did wonders for his voice lol
I like this too though, such a cutie
I love that his friends and family were helping him make these videos.
this is the genius of his old videos. He’s just moving. Usually with something interestingly mundane happening around him.
why has he always had so much steeze
He always been true to himself, gotta respect that
He always had the confidence in him. That's why he's where he at now. Belief in yourself folks.
