- The argument about whether or not Drake is a culture vulture is not a new one. The Toronto native has been called out for changing his clean-cut, child actor image to fit in for a while. Some rap fans blasted the rapper for years for seemingly jumping on younger artists' bandwagons to stay relevant. Ryan & Lewis debate this trending topic.

Is Drake a Culture Vulture?
Yes. Without a doubt.
Yes
definitely drake 'born with a silver spoon
Yes but he has given more than he has taken
That’s Drake’s thing, finding angles to sell his music. He’s not going to sell music, being himself, otherwise, he’d be underground. He swoops into parts of hip hop that’s gaining success and exploits it. With Kendrick damaging his image, it’s going to be difficult for Drake to find an angle to fulfill his $400million contract with Universal because nobody wants to be associated with a publicly crowed pedo.
Ryan was 100% right. We've seen and heard the messed up things Drake is capable of doing publically, so I can't even begin to nor do I want to imagine or speculate what happened behind the scenes that resulted in so many fallouts and he's the common denominator in everyone of them.
J Cole has COMPLETELY embraced the Black culture (like a Halle Berry). There is a huge difference no matter what your skin tone is.
As a mulatto myself...i stopped fckn with Drake a min ago. It became obvious he was in it for the fame, while my brotha Cole on the other hand has always had a purpose. Popularity vs. Purpose thats how i saw this battle. And Kendrick proved which one will stand the test of time.
Doesn’t matter how you see it or how you flip it J. Cole and Drake are two of the same people. They are not black and they love piggybacking and benefiting from the black community which is a huge problem.
@@staymadloser7754 Huge difference between Drake and Cole LMFAO
The answer is yes! so is DJ Vlad!
Here! This here.💯
Both are small hats.
💯💪🏽
For Drake I agree.
For Vlad I disagree.
TLDNR version:
Vlad doesn’t TAKE money OUT of the culture. Vlad does make money OFF of it though.
FULL EXPLANATION:
The difference being Drake copying accents and sounds and using ghost writers etc, effectively boxes out other artists from profiting off of their art. A random UK drill Artist MIGHT have a chance to crossover and make it big in the US but ppl like Drake copy and steal their style saturating the market.
Vlad by comparison critiques the culture by interviewing ppl from the culture. Yes you could argue he is boxing out other cultural critics which is true but in this case it’s useful. A culture CAN’T fully critique itself because a system can’t be fully understood from within the System.
This is how ppl like Vlad can be useful, NOW that said he probably doesn’t do the BEST job of this as I’ve outlined above.
But I like to keep at least one external critic of the culture who is literate of the culture in my feed. I’m currently shopping around for a better alternative than Vlad.
Anthony Fantano maybe? Im open to Any suggestions?
@@interloc1290 Vlad is not black and shouldn’t be critiquing nobody at and making money from our culture and then turn around and talk trash about certain people of the culture is a big problem. Who told you it was good for you to speak about black culture. And Drake is black I don’t know where you are getting this idea he is copying what black culture do yeah he was raised different that doesn’t make him less black or less HIP HOP
Drakes was raised in one of the richest Jewish neighborhoods in Toronto. His was a florist with her own business . What part of that says culture ..
Oh, it's definitely a culture. It's just not *_American black culture,_* the culture from which he continues to take. Lol
So black culture is struggling?
It's because drake wants to be apart and idealize American culture and he uses his mixed personality to move in the culture........so yes in a way he his
everyone does that
@@truthtella3371wrong’
If drake wanted the culture to really embrace him all he had to do was be his genuine self but instead drake imitated his way into the culture
I believe Ryan when he said he was suspended because of Drake.
Drake should've been real and talk about his experiences in a white household as a mixed race kid
Talk about his experiences with his father's people at Memphis when he was around them
Talk about the identity crisis when he was coming of age
He doing everything but being real and that makes it hard for him to shrug culture vulture accusations since people feel he isn't being sincere especially with all that tough guy mob talk
This brutha Ryan is a dangerous man !! One of the most aware comedians there is
If u gotta ask the question the answer is yes
Lol
True Indeed. He stands on growing up in a wealthy, religious based environment in a foreign country. Loving/hating us, as the world does. Just the same, the 85 keep dancing...💯
Ryan Davis is highly intelligent and his delivery is excellent. Thank you Ryan Davis
those of ya'll caping for Drake are telling on yourselves. B1
“You rap like you tryna free the slaves”
“We get it the blacker the berry sweeter the juice”
He exposing himself
Drake been a culture vulture came to Houston then went to Atlanta can't really rap always had ghostwriters 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Don't forget Miami
@@Quezo103 there is no culture in Miami so please stop specially we’re talking about hip-hop or rap
@staymadloser7754 🤣🤣🤣stay mad loser cuz u dont kno what tf u talkin bout..sensitive ass Drake groupie
@@staymadloser7754 🤣🤣just say you never left yo moms basement...u don't know sh!t about nothing outside your cave🤣🤣mind yo business
That man called his momma. Of course hes mad
Yes. He is a culture vulture.
Man it’s crazy because, I commented on a Kendrick track on FB and I got reported for bullying when all I said is “I’ll tune in for anything Kendrick”
He told his mother Rick Ross was racist
Hear let me help you yes. Next video. This aint a discussion or debate 🤷🏿
Yes
Good points.
Drake✡️: 🫡🇨🇦
What music was being played at his bar mitzva
I clicked because Ryan was looking like a straight menace in the thumbnail 😂😂😂😂😂
Music still 🔥I live on the Eastside of Detroit the hood playing drake💯
Drake mama is white too lol these two r crazy 😂 nah! Cole understands the struggle, drake doesn't and he want to.
Mf what struggle stop yapping
@@youcantberacisttowardswhit3917 wtf u talkin' bout'? struggle has a million and one meanings, find those out first MFB!!!
Over here in Canada, growing up in a mixed community, we always mixed with each other. Ate each others food, listened and sang each others music, embraced each others cultures while accepting our differences. This racial gatekeeping is so weird to me
Drake ain’t just regular white he a JUuH and he gon use that superpower against all his foes 😂😂😂
Larry Grahams nephew can’t be a culture vulture.
Incorrect
🧢
No. He’s not a vulture if he grew up in it. A vulture makes money off the hard labor of others. Drake put in the work. The executives are the vultures.
Bro a actor
Where is cancel court!!? Why everyone trying to jump on this podcast ish!!?...
...Duh!!!!!
I love both. And as I said it. KDot is the best lyricist right now ever. But Drake is the biggest rapper right pop rap star or not he’s bigger than KDot. But the only thing I completely disagree with many of you is the fact to call Drake culture vulture. Damn. Drake father is from Memphis even if he was born in Canada Drake has US blood in him, secondly, he’s half black. Third his father and his uncle were great artists in Memphis, so in the blood too, thirdly, Drame used to spend time with his grandma at Memphis since his childhood, so when you’re a kid it’s easy to have multiple native accent. When Adonis speaks French he’s has it, when he speaks English he has it. Then, We all watch Drake and his father footage rapping and singing since he was eight. And concerning his childhood, he wasn’t raised in rich Jew family and black family. Both sides were obviously below middle class. And it was his acting at his teenage that helped his mother and him to live befoere embracing a full time rap career. If this guy made it in US and be come beyond the borders with all this crazy numbers, that means he got talent, lil Wayne wouldn’t have signed him if he didn’t recognize his talent in hip hop. So the hatred should stop. And if he’s bigger than your legit rappers that means they have to work on themselves and don’t blame a guy who knows where he’s going
Drake Father side played a pivotal role in the music scene in Memphis. His uncle was a mentor to prince and played with sly and the family stone. His Dad and mother are musician as well. His family invented the slap bass sound. How on earth can one be a culture vulture when you come from a musical lineage like that. The main resentment of drake is coming from darkskin black men feeling away towards a light skin black man. It's rooted in jealousy, envy and colorism. drake has deep familial family roots in music, and you can see it in some of his interactions caught on video with his father were he's rapping at a young age.
Wrong!
Do you know what colorism is? Because light skinned people benefit from it they are not victims of it and implying otherwise is just ignorant!
😂😂😂
That Drake Cole comparison is facts and 🔥
J.Cole embrace his black side not just that he look as a light. Drake only embraced his black side when his career took off. Also look at how they grew up. I'm mixed white mom but was raised by my pops all my potners always called me white boy as a joke if we was bagging nothing serious cause I would bust out an laugh so the fact that gets under his skin let's it be known the boy got thin skin and wouldn't survive he 100% would of have been food for cats
He is not a culture vulture. Smh.
Yes he is
@@bigcountry122687 explain your stance
@scottdavid8105 you explain why he's not.
@@scottdavid8105 he's pretending to be something he's not. And now that he's big he feels no one can call him out
Let me shatter this fallacy right quick. If Drake wasn’t a culture vulture he’d have his nail polish, gold grill and barrette’s on around his mom’s side of the family and her community. He only presents and acts that way around us…
Who gives af about the culture… it’s nothing to be proud of 🤷🏾♂️🧘🏾♂️
Sonny bo stop talking while Ryan talkibg 🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
This proves how remedial race angle is. J.Cole a different type of white?
Black father=Black son.
Bob Marley father was a white man. Was he Black enough?
Culture & race is different. Our race created our culture.
That’s not how that works
If you are biracial, you can’t claim aside you’re just biracial you’re not more than the other J. Cole is biracial drake biracial you can never claim them as black
@@staymadloser7754 that is not true. Bob Marley dad was a white man. Nobody claims that Bob Marley is not black enough. Does Ye have black kids?
They keep our people dumbed down and it's ill because when they think they are fighting the power- all they are really doing is spreading their narrative.
How is he a culture vulture? Half his family is part of the culture. And not just skin color like his uncle and father are musicians who created cultural music. You don’t think he learned from them? Corny discourse
It's more his fake personality
@@camrendavis6650 y’all believing these rappers aren’t lying across the board shows how gullible people are. There’s a handful who are about it, the rest dogged fades, made music and used their hoods as the backdrop.
@@timoffthewall1561 apparently the offense hits harder for someone like Drake
its because he was raised jewish in canada, it doesnt matter how many cousins in memphis he has, he was never a part of the culture to begin with
@@PALIVE-mp6gn Who made any of yall the gatekeepers of “culture” yall only care when it comes to famous people. I wish yall could just listen to the music and stop making it yall personally. I don’t care where a nigga from, if the shit slaps it slaps. Never said cousins, I said world renowned uncle and his father, there was due diligence done. And if you believe every rapper was about that shit in the hood, that’s a level of delusion I’m not willing to accept. These niggas all lie, some do it better than others
Mixed this half that not black. Not a color crayon. I don't know about all of that. All I know is there is no comparison from money. Women number one hits and world. Wide. Stardom period one sounds like Kermit. The frog and the other is Dominating business and music for a long time now.
Go home
Regardless of the fact, both of them, Drake & Kendrick, are mamzers. If you don't know what a mamzer is, then look it up.
Which definition? If it's being born out of wedlock, or the other, it's a moot point.
Don't nobody care bout dat goofy sh!t u talkin bout
I seen that slick shit you said before youtube deleted it. Still doesn't matter it has no bearing on who a persons character is.
@@Matches_Malone0 There ain't nothing slick about what I said, I definitely said it outwardly and bold, youtube deleted it lmbo, so what, well I said it again, and will say it again and again!
Drake father is black. Father is the progenitor. No such thing as mixed!
