Is he the first pop artist on that scale to escape public scrutiny unscathed?

He committed a cardinal sin in hip-hop and peole basically shrugged it off. He literally wears a fake Caribbean accent and no one has yet to publicly call him out on it.

He's an interesting case if you think about it. He's reaching Michael Jackson turning into a white guy levels if public acceptance and it's kind of cool.

who the fuck gives a shit about Drake outside of anybody that likes hip hop

Are you serious? I know this is /mu/ but damn it must suck hasn't such little self awareness.

Saw him at coachella two years ago. His performance was so bad people all around me booed and left in droves. I was actually surprised how fucking terrible it was. I missed fucking ODESZA because my girlfriend wanted to see this talentless shit.
>>
>>64640770
he's half black, half jewish, therefore 100% infallible by the media
>>
>>64640915
He's talentless because he gave a bad performance once?
>>
>>64640915
>getting audio cucked by your gf

lol
>>
>>64640820
This. It's pretty much an illusion that Drake is an actual rapper. If you can't get your reputation ruined by being exposed for not writing your own material, hiding from other tougher rappers, getting peed on, and getting slapped by Puffy, it goes to show you never had a real place in hip-hop.

>>64640917
Also this, but it's just more of his jew side. If he was white and jewish, he's get the same attention or even more.
>>
>>64640898
thanks. damn this is bad
>>
>>64640770
Wells he's a black and a Jew.
And Canadian.

Untouchable by the media
>Plus drake the type of nigga to cry about cutting someone off

You don't know any of those things to be true.

We've all seen him "freestyle"

>>64640820
A massive amount of people who usually listen to pop. He's a superstar at this point, especially after Hotline Bling.
>>
>>64641244
Using a phone to read your lyrics become a staple since then. Again back to the OP's point. He's untouchable.
>>
>>64641244
>freestyling is an objective measure of a hip-hop artist

Is this the early 90s?

Corny rap for women and cucks

There is no way he's not a homosexual man. I am just waiting for the eventual 40 homolove album I wanna see how far Drake can push this shit.

>>64641265
Yeah OP is right, right about when NWTS came out it became pretty clear this nigga's finna change for nobody and hip hop just went "alright nigga fuck it you win".

But Drake's been pretty good at making sure he's the only guy around like him at his level so at least there's only one of him to put up with.
>>
>>64640915
damn, ODESZA sounds fun as fuck
>>
>>64640883
Arigato, Obama-san.

I feel like Drake is just a different form of artist and no one really knows what to do with him. He's not treated like a rapper, he's treated like a pop star...but he makes hip-hop and people in the hip-hop community like/look up to him. It's almost like neither side wants to piss off the other? Or neither side cares enough? Idk the dude is practically a public enigma at this point
>>
>>64641205
>You don't know any of those things to be true.

He even passively admitted he uses ghostwriters and calls them "help" . He uses reference tracks from Quintin Miller and Partynextdoor. Even if you don't believe that, all those other embarassing stuff about him is 100% fact that Drizzy is a wimp.
>>
>>64641674
I mean the stuff you obviously know you can't prove, like him getting urinated on.

No people definitely care it's just honestly hard to classify Drake

He's the first of his kind of "pop" star
>>
>>64641877
There are few people that were exclusive with T.I and Drake said it was true. But The guy was Drunk, so started peeing and got to Drake's direction. Meek Mill isn't the one to lie in a diss song.
>>
>>64642075
>meek mill

lol isn't his career over?
>>
>>64641091
i worked closely with a basketball team

these are some of the most ghetto people i have ever had any sort of relationship with

they all love drake

i mean, i don't get it, but i think we're the ones that are missing something here, not them. i just don't know what it is
>>
>>64642208
He's black and he sings, if that stupid nigger with the potatoe in the throat called future can be successful then of course this pretty, wimpy ass nigger can be
>>
>>64642102
>lol isn't his career over?

How? Because social media has made people into drones?

>>64642208
That doesn't disprove my point. Compared to Kendrick, Pusha-T, Future, or even J. Cole, he's not as much as a rapper.
>>
>>64642315
he never claims to be

In fact he says in multiple songs that he's a pop star so what point are you trying to make?
>>
>>64641387
They sucked ass when I saw them opening for Beat Connection. Maybe they're better since then
>>
>>64641911
Kanye?

>>64642075
I most definitely would pin Meek as someone to lie or use someone else's lie against another rapper, yes. He's exactly that guy to me.

Have you even listened to Meek mill beyond his "Wanna Know" ? Meek has dissed Cassidy, Kendrick, Drake, and then 50 cent.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ligGguhHu5U

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73xJ32p1R7A

Meek uses other rappers weak points or embarrassing things about them and goes in about it.
>>
>>64642297
Then why aren't you famous nigga? It might not seem like it, but for someone like future to make it big, he had to be in competition with, idk, more than 900,000 other rappers in atlanta. And even after he got signed and made a few bucks, he still managed to please not just the label, but the people. That looks like talent to me.
>>
>>64642820
>more than 900,000 other rappers in atlanta
where the fuck did you get that number from?
>>
>>64642815
Lmao Meek has nogains and can't fight (box) for shit. He is the epitome of L's, he shouldn't be going after the big shots.

He's good but also petty. You underestimate this and it exists in everyone. I'm just saying you can't use something you can't prove against Drake. I'm using court rules, nigga.
>>
>>64642849
You have a city that big (5 million people) with THAT many black people. It's the ghetto. Only ways out are sports or rap, and I could bet you anything you would have a pretty hard time finding someone who is NBA quality among 5 million people. Also that 900,000 figure is nothing, understand that 5 million is a fuck ton more than 1 million, already a ton of people.
>>
>>64642849
Atlanta native here, everyone raps and they're all similar in some way.
>>
>>64642916
Atlanta isn't "the ghetto", holy shit.

We're going through a movement because a lot more kids started coming to our schools due to the job market. They're bring they're taste and sensibilities and it's changing the city's culture and sound. It has little to do with there being a large percentage of black people already there. Nearly every shithole in America would be musically relevant if that were the case.
>>
>>64642916
Try checking atlanta's population again you fucking idiot.
>>
>>64642850
Are you one of those Drake dick riders that types " lol L XD " at every Meek mill video?

>>64642897
> I'm just saying you can't use something you can't prove against Drake.

but you got no proof that it DIDN'T happen. There is Meek , a reporter, and a comedian that says it did happen
