They were.

All of his music has been.

I don’t care about the race argument but it’s crazy to find out that there’s some white guys telling some black guys in here that Drake doesn’t have black fans and his music wasn’t accepted til he did music with Migos etc. while detailing the experiences arent what they’re saying

But then also say the listeners like McDonald’s wtf man

I think it’s time for me to stay out of the booth lol
I'm black. From the South. I REALLY don't know what region most of yall are from. You do care about the race argument, or you wouldn't have brought it up. I've lived in multiple Southern states. NLU 3rd verse was just an amalgamation of what many ppl were saying in real time, 10+ years back. Accept it or don't. :hubie:

Successful and Best I Ever Had was played everywhere in NYC I don't know about down south.
Those are POP rap songs. With no real specific regional appeal. They were played all over the radio in 2009. These are two different arguments being made.

I'm from the south too and Drake has been played down south since




Most people that was listening to Gucci back then probably wasn't listening to Drake but plenty of Black folks were listening to him.

He got played as much as any major pop rap act would get played. There was a noticeable shift after he got with Migos and Future.

I don’t even view this as a Kendrick/Drake topic, I’m talking broadly about “content” being valued over art.

Zero issue with 50 clearly favoring the rapper that reminds him more of himself (in terms of pop rap).
thats fair

Kendrick has never bragged or even mentioned the grammys in any of his raps that I’ve listened too, if you can find me a lyric I will take the L

Kendrick has always been the CRITIC darling and Drake the industry darling. Kendrick nor Drake kiss ass when it comes to the critics. Drake has always played the industry games though that anti industry stuff is a damn lie :mjlol:
