      That doesnt make any sense because when you get to shopping music, that means you have made it. The one thing haters do but isnt smart enough to realize is, they claim that when you are adored by the masses , you for some reason have sold out because they couldnt do that. Mos Def is only known in a small, let me rephrase that, an extremely small, segment of the game because he wasnt talented enough to go beyond the small block he was on. THATS IT!
      Its like the drug dealer criticizing the mob boss saying he no longer stand out on the block, hustle on the streets and get shot at and be in the game because now, he sits in his mansion and control the entire cartel and call hits from his private plane ..
      MOS def is the drug dealer on his block, that couldnt expand beyond his block and drake is that drug dealer who started on a block and now runs the entire cartel in the country.
      The goal in business is to make money and most def didnt go to school so he had no clue about BUSINESS IN MUSIC BUSINESS!

  • @shanafehr
    @shanafehr 5 месяцев назад +221

    This is such an elegant and eloquent diss. So many layers: a "target in HOUSTON", "shopping", "so many products" "everything is here" "I love this mall", "when it collapses".. "the empire" "buying and selling", it's not hate it's a POV, a perspective. Maybe the fact that it was a jab, the way he said it was hilarious, dilutes the content: Drake is pop in a sense that is consumer based for the masses who want something just because, not because of the quality of the goods, not because there is artistry to it.
    Mos Def ain't lying.

Hes a one hit wonder but with singles. I never saw him as hip hop or a rapper. I saw more R&B appeal than street rapper, hard core lyricist, battle rapper, even trap rapper. Bleep out his curses, hes a kids bop winner...

      Most def is about the culture. Drake is about moving units. To be fair to Drake though I don't have a problem with it. You can't deny the talent. And it's okay to go that route. But when going that route you can never be considered a top 5 or 10 emcee. That's what makes Lil Wayne, Jay z, Eminem so impressive. Cus they have the numbers and they are emcees at its core.

      I think Freddy Mercury said it best, you get tired of making serious songs all the time. Art is about having fun too.
      Plus, people tend to put Drake in a box when he can do both. He can make fun pop music, but he also has bars and clearly respects and spends time on his craft.
      I don't get how you can listen to songs like the Middle of the Ocean or If the Shoe Fits and marginalize him as a pop rapper just because the nigga can make a Nice for What as well.
      It's like mfs pick and choose what side of Drake they want to acknowledge when he's clearly multi-faceted.
      Respect to Mos Def, but it sounds exhausting trying to take yourself so seriously all the time.

    Why do we call any and every unpopular opinion hate? When Joe gave his honest critique of Drake's last album he was labeled a hater also. It is true that without any malice in your heart, you can give an honest opinion that may be unfavorable to others who simply may not see things from your perspective or agree with it altogether. Joe clearly is aware of this because he stops himself from making a point @3:25 because he knows he'd be put back into that "hater" box he so often finds himself in when giving his (very educated) opinion that is found unfavorable to others. Primarily that artist fans. I like the unapologetic Joe that callees it like he sees it and creates a space where TRUE opinions and views are shared. Not watered down ones where everyone expected to be buddies. Everyone isn't going to like what you do or your opinion (when asked) about what they are doing. Let's stop calling them haters.

    Drake isn’t Hiphop and never has been. Rap music isn’t Hiphop. It’s popular music that people listen to enjoy themselves or to pass time. There is no substance in any of his music. Someone’s opinion that differs from yours doesn’t mean it’s hate. It’s his opinion.

Most def coulda went the pop route. He didn't care about that tho. And that's his point. But not everyone is like him and that's what mos def don't understand. Or at least that's how it looks to me from the outside looking in. Look at Lil Wayne, or Eminem, or Jay z, Kendrick Lamar. Those guys stay true to the culture and still have the pop-success. And Drake pretty much goes all the way pop. And I think he doesn't like that. That's all he's saying in my humble opinion.

    Drake drops music like every couple months and the last few projects are forgotten quickly. He makes music that's easily accessible by EVERYONE. That's the literally definition of a pop artist.

      I don't think he's ever had a classic due to his rapping ability. Any of his perceived classics and strictly due to the popularity of the music.
      Personally, I do consider drake to be hip hop.
      Here's my biggest critique of how he's perceived tho.
      I'm almost 30. So as a kid, the break consensus greats in no particular order were usually said to be..
      Tupac. Biggie. Nas. Jay-Z. Eminem. Lil Wayne.
      As I got older, let's say the last 15 years or so. Ppl added to that list were drake. Kendrick. Cole.
      I feel like when you put that whole list of rappers together.. you see some sort of unifying qualities with them EXCEPT for Drake.
      He gets to be talked about with them on pure popularity.
      His lyrics aren't highly regarded. His flow isn't highly regarded. His content matter isn't highly regarded. He as a person and who he is and how he influences other young black men to be isn't highly regarded.
      He's in conversations with those ppl purely off popularity.
      He's held to a bar that's not the same for the other guys.
      With that said, again, I do think drake is hip hop. And everyone once in a while drake shows me that he is a dope ass rapper.
      But even with his BEST rap songs I think he should be ranked right under those guys with other GREAT rappers but not quite the goats.
      If I could put together a 12 song album of Drake's best raps and no one had heard em yet it would definitely be a classic rap album. But he's not consistent with it bc his main focus is making popular music and not truly impactful music for hip hop core fans.

      It's seen as hate when people say ridiculous things and throw shade for no purpose. You can say you dont like his music without saying some dumb shit like it's meant for shooping. Knowing that every rapper in history had to make some songs more commercially viable. So i guess Jay-z is pop then.....when you are actively trying to be disrespectful it's because you are jealous and a hater. If you dont like something...just say " it's not for me...or say nothing. When you have to make posts online....trying to tear him down...throw shade in interviews.......thats hate. and it's ok to be hater.......just dont pretend that you are not a hater.

Some of drakes music IS so insignificant,it IS akin to background music u hear in shopping centres, it’s not hate to say so , it’s an opinion , which I share but like I said earlier it’s like we are not allowed to dislike his music without being labelled a hater & YOU’VE just proved the point 🤷🏾‍♂️

      @pipes7120 I never said you cannot dislike his muisc. My message was quite clear. f you dont like something, then pay it no mind. What Mos did is the very definition of being a hater. Talking down on someone else's accomplishments because you dont like what they do is being a hater. AGAIN its ok to be a hater....just aknowlede that you are a hater. Don't throw rocks and hide your hand. Bro couldn't wait to start running his mouth like a female. So happy to be talking about Drake....almost as if he begged he to ask him that question. He had a whole routine lined up....
      Imagine spending time in an interview talking about something you claim is not worthy of being talked about? There's nothing wrong with not liking something, but when you start to campaign against it, you are a hater. If you are a hater, just be a Hater. Everyone is so scared to be called a hater....

      Nah u gotta remember…they was born in 2000 so they have a different definition of the culture than the older heads…this whole generation was 8-9 years old when “Comeback Season” was out so they pretty much grew up at a time when the culture was changing…the last album Mos dropped solo was in ‘09 (The Ecstatic) so they wasn’t even alive when Umi Says or Ms. Fat Booty dropped…

If it was all pure discord and generational perspective I’d understand that, but the blatant disregard for the foundation of the culture they claim to represent is violation. Even when we “argued” with our old heads it never reached disrespect. At least not around my way. Then again, to your point, if we did it was face to face no hidden behind an artificial environment.

    It's funny because this is the oldest trope in hip hop. KRS was at Nelly for the same thing. Nas called Jay Z pop. Common accused NWA and the west coast of whoring hip hop out. So, yea, "if skills sold truth be told, I'd probably be lyrically talib kweli. Truthfully I wanna rhyme like common sense, but I made 5 mil I ain't been rhyming like common since"

    Great conversation. My take is, hip hop is more than just commercialism. It’s also about standing for something especially socially or politically. But ppl like drake have often milked hip hop for fame and money but never use it to make a statement or stand for anything when the time comes to stand for something

    • @FeltMarvellous
      @FeltMarvellous 5 месяцев назад +2

      And we shouldn’t begrudge drake for avoiding using hip hop to touch on social or political issues. His aim is to make as much money as possible. Conforming to purest part of hip hop could potentially alienate his fans and supporters. Alienating ppl goes against the rules of making money. Kanye did it and we saw why you shouldn’t. Jay-Z has found ways to still remain pure to hip hop without alienating ppl but he’s a gifted lyricist.
