Let’s talk about colonizing. These fake activists want to be so smart.
Niggas knowingly sign and seek out these same culture vultures to sign with, even when they have options.
Then the same fake activist who complain support the music which in turns pays the Cracka while Pennies go to the artist. Hell most artists are in debt after their album
That's a different topic and we can go down that road, but there's still concrete to travel on the one we're currently on, so let's stay here.
Most of this beef had been about Drake Cosplaying as African-American / black, the recent pedo/grooming shit aside.....
He is a colonizer, riding whichever wave he thinks will benefit him most at the moment, from UK Drill, ATL swag (21, Metro, Future and Migos), H town culture (Prince family...etc), that NO swag from Wayne and them, hell the dude even jacked shit from mfkrs in his own city, Weeknd, PND, DVSN and more......
But we know exactly who Aubrey really is. He had a Bar Mitzvah, he grew up damn near exclusively in Toronto suburbs and was the token "black" kid in most of his classes / friend groups.
He's the type of "black" that didn't see anything wrong with Whyte people trying to touch his hair. He keeps making references to "American" slaves because he feels no connection to them. (The underground railroad ran from the American South to the North and some slaves did flee to Canada, Aubrey.) It's weird, how he said N!gg@ early on was so damn cringe!
I'll give you another example, listening to Jay Z do interviews early on, his voice was different from on wax, but his cadences, his verbage....everything was pretty similar but you can tell on the mic he exuded more confidence.
Drake on the other hand, it's like is that even the same person talking? But he got a pass because the music was good and Cash Money/YM had a fucking monster run...so while the hits were coming out, mfkrs overlooked those things.
