popcaan defends drake against mr vegas

[exiledking]

Vegas is not going to respond with a threat

I grew up around guys like that

They act tough to the world who don't know how they grew up.

They wear the toughness outside but the inside is insecure as shit

See the body language from his boys?

See his dip when he was acting out?

I don't know where you are from but that means i will go down if you fuck with me.

So that part was not cool.

My problem is when you have hood people adopting a craft, getting some success and acting all hard.

popcaan is NOT an artist

He doesn't study the craft, work on his craft etc....

He made some hits, is popular now but will crash and burn.

Meanwhile the US locked down the conscious reggae artist from traveling.

All designs to kill the culture.

There is a WAR going on to kill reggae music and youths like pop can't see the forest for the trees

Lol relax yourself. You're over the top. But then again it's YOU.


Again, even the creation of dancehall was seen as the death of Caribbean culture. Short memories

That's what I'm worried about. This could potentially get bigger than it is once people start taking sides. Vegas is a nice guy, but he isn't a punk.

You ever been to JA @exiledking ?

 

[Ming Fei Hong]

Damn, I'm disappointed at how Popcaan handled this. Even if he disagreed with Vegas, he didn't have to be so disrespectful about it, especially considering Vegas was trying to look out for him on some OG shit.

I hear you. But you cyan blame di yute for standing up for his culture. He can be outspoken at times, but he's just tired of the fuckery that reggae artists continually deal with major label artists. I personally don't think he's looking for hype. That guys is rich. Richer than popcaan. But you never know.

my bad, Jamaican culture. Thats what it was seen as, and you know it. DOn't ask me irrelevant questions. I know where you're from. I wouldn't be talking about shit I don't know about. You know where I'm from. The point is, you don't know wtf you're talking about and making up grand conspiracy theories about nothin.

Some days youre talking all this Black people shit, now all of sudden youre dividing up the carribbean, and excluding Drake from being Black. Your whole argument is dumb.

You wanna exclude Drake, and ME from this discussion? fine- then you and Vegas are also excluded. Only persons opinion who matters is Pop Caan, and he's good with it. Next year you can bring this up again is your prediction comes true.

 

[exiledking]

You ever been to JA @exiledking ?

why does that matter? And why the fuck would I be talking about something I don't know about? More importantly, IS WHAT I SAID WRONG?

 

[exiledking]

All he has to do is sit back and stfu. If he decides to make something of this thats on HIM.

wtf are you rambling about?

show me where I said anything about anyone's blackness

is that post responding to me?

i'm confused

Man why are you even addressing that dumb ass nigga?

my bad, Jamaican culture.. The point is, you don't know wtf you're talking about

you are sooooo funny

1st sentence = my bad, you are right, i didn't know wtf i was talking about, let me correct myself

2nd sentence = now that you were correct, shut the fuck up cause you don't know what you are talking about

You're right about one small difference in how I worded it. Jamaican culture vs the whole Carribean.

But what I meant to say was Jamaican culture and what I said about what people used to say about dancehall being the death of it is still true. True or false?

 

[exiledking]

you see that man's body language?

that was a fucking threat

"They say what we know
Is just what they teach us;
And we're so ignorant
'Cause every time they can reach us (shoobe, doo-wa)
Through political strategy (shoo-be, doo-wa);
They keep us hungry (shoobe, doo-wa),
And when you gonna get some food (shoobe, doo-wa),
Your brother got to be your enemy, we-e-ell!"

Political strategy my ass. It's 2 Black men doing business and 3rd one who has nothing to do with it rambling on about it without ASKING about the details.

ANd here yall go rambling on about some shit that you're nto involved in either. I'm saying ALL YALL STFU. I don't know Pop Caan. I don't know Vegas. I don't know Drake.

But if Pop Caan and Drake, the two brothas involved in the business are happy... THEN WTF ARE YOU RAMBLING ABOUT?

All this shit about the future of dancehall and all this other dumb shit.

Again, just let it go. Most people have never even heard of Pop Caan outside of the Caribbean.. NO... JAMAICA- to be precise by your terms. Now they have, because he's featured on the album of one of the biggest rappers out.

 

[water]

Man why are you even addressing that dumb ass nigga?

I forgot who he was for a minute

I'm out.

You can't even spell "caribbean"

you want to quantify your fuckery calling it a "small difference"

jamaica vs caribbean?

all your posts are littered with the wrong fucking spelling

the word is "caribbean" mofo

now go edit all of it and call it a "small difference"

 

[RoadRage]

Yeah all that shit is wishful thinking and your example of hip-hop proves it. Hip-hop wasn't destroyed by white people. If it's destroyed at all anyway.

And what's "destroyed" about hip-hop is already destroyed in dancehall with. I ones help- actually there are some old school reggae music heads who would say dancehall is what destroyed reggae with the slackness lyrics, gun talk, drug talk, etc....

And Jamaica IS the Mecca of it, but it's a musical rhythm that travels the globe with the people who travel. It's not like there was no dancehall artists in Canada already. Or new York. Or England. Or Africa for that fact- they jack it all the time and make hits. But I guess since the African market ain't getting more money than them, no one's gonna call patorankin out.

There's been tons of white ska groups who had a ball with that and that's from Jamaica. Tons of reggae groups and Thats from Jamaica. If you wanna go to a real dancehall party you'd have to have jamaicans but if you think they ain't puttin on Justin Beiber "sorry" at some point or Drake, you're buggin. People can copyrights and publishing but they can't own a rhythm. The thing that makes most people even like it in another market is when they're allowed to do it also and in their own way. Free it up.

My point flew way over your head....

 

[BKF]

In other words he got in that man's business. If he aint said shit. Then he shouldn't be saying shit.

Ok so you're again on the petty instead of the real issue.

But I'm good just as Pop Caan is.

And y'all can hate on the sidelines with your bullshit doomsday predictions lol


Dancehall is full of crazy gun talk, pussy talk, and murder. But THIS is the end of it. LMAO y'all sound stupid as fuck.

 

[ViCiouS]

There's no fight. Pop just told Vegas to not speak on HIS business which is perfectly fair. And Drake is a "brother" too or are we still making rules on whos black whenever we feel like it?

the industry has determined that he is a jew first, THEN black

 

[exiledking]

I wonder if Kaya agrees with you on this lol

 

[exiledking]

My point flew way over your head....

The whole point is over yours.

Drake has a deal with Pop Caan. Not Vegas, not you, not anyone else. You have a prediction about what's gonna happen and it's based on your own distorted view of history. But hey, all you can do is watch. And when the sky don't fall, I'm sure you won't admit it lol.

Its not about Pop Cann or even Vegas its about respecting the culture and the music, if not your nothing but a culture vulture... Because when RUNDMC did that joint with Areosmith white folks was up in arms due to them not getting more credit, even though at that time Walk this way way over ten years old...
But even so they were kind of right, if your going to do shit with different music of a different culture you should pay respect to the culture as a whole, even if the artist you are working with are too dumb to see the significance....

 

[bborn]

peace

 

[Complex]

Let's revisit this in a year or two.

People seem to change their tune with Drake when they realize it doesn't really help their career.

Lol every example you use actually elevated the culture. Walk this way made run dmx one of their biggest hits ever dumbass. Stop talking about culture. You're not good at it lol

And again, comparing Drake to aerosmith? Is Drake white to you?

If dude got a check at all of any publishing then it's helped his career. If he thinks this song alone is gonna make him as famous as Drake then year he will be disappointed. But a piece of publishing on a Drake album is a win you don't have to wait a year to see.

But if you need a year long result , notice you don't see Bounty Killa talking shit about the feature he had in a Drake video. He did his part, got his check and moved in with his life. Drake can.do all this dancehall shit and.never step foot on Jamaica to do business of any kind. But he does and you foola are still mad lol. Dancehall culture- as if it's some kind of uplifting thing for Black people in the first place. I love it , but it's fucking dance music.

This is far more positive exposure than these daggering videos out there.

You must only listen to Sizzla and conscious shit like that lol.

What was disrespectful about "walk this way" to run dmc or hip-hop?

I hope you're getting a check with OVO with the way you're caping.

NO one is saying anything about blackness

Are you that dumb to be saying the same shit over and over?

we get it, you had a fucking dodge charger with a confederate flag on the hood

that says a lot

we understand your conflict
