WTF are you talking about....it was Drake
-kissing a 17 year old on stage and talking bout how thick she is + other weird interactions with underage women
Some of you are too retarded for this conversation and it shows.

I don't condone Drake's actions. I'm simply letting you know that he's I'm a position where he has to try and close the floodgates.

So battles should only happen in URL and on the battle forums now. Wow.
It's wild seeing black men trying to switch up the hip-hop game like this. This is unprecedented.

So from now on bringing shyt on wax is a no no. You wanna battle someone you need to create a specific event to do so...damn.

No accountability at all. Let them say it Kendrick set out to destroy Drake intentionally. You let them say it and they'll promise you that Kendrick went up to UMG and promised them that with their help Drake was gonna be destroyed and that's how it all started.

This is utterly disgusting.
It's going to be like boxing. You'll have two mainstream rappers sign waivers and will abide by rules, ex: Can't rap about this x,y, and z :francis: irony that record labels will have more power. But Drake is fighting the good fight :heh:

If drake wins we are talking about pre-drake battles in hip hop history vs post lawsuit drake battles. This is what ovohoes want:yeshrug:

Drake trying to sue makes it clear he was never hip hop and has just been using the culture to make money. It is against hip hop to diss somebody then run to the court crying defamation after you get dissed back. Drake should be persona non grata in hop hop but he will probably get a pass for this hoe shyt too.

Its against hip hop culture to snitch and cooperate with the police but Gunna is just as big or bigger than he has ever been. 50 cent working with the feds to release hit piece documentaries on his rivals aint hip hop either. If you got beef you handle it in the street. You don't wish jail on your worst enemy. That used to be the code. But its 2024. Yall cheer lead the feds and pick and choose which snitch rapper you want to support.

Whether you listen to drakes next project to hate or whether you listen as a fan it doesn't matter cause he gets paid either way. The "culture" is irrelevant. This aint the 90s were folks could get blackballed due to limited distribution channels.

that Siri shyt is getting disregarded with the quickness. They said if you put certified lover boy it plays Not Like Us. No fukking shyt, Siri finds music from the title or the lyrics. Say “hey siri can you play “insert a drake lyric” and it will play based off lyrics. “Certified lover boy… certified pedophile. Simple. What a disingenuous cowardly loser . Just throwing bullshyt at the wall. Anyway Happy fam day coli :blessed:


:eat:“Hey Siri Play”

“never got his ass whipped til he opened up that can “ “freak bytch I like my Mac touching yams”

The genius play is for Drake to invite Kendrick to join the litigation and give Kendrick a portion of the earnings if he wins the cases or settles. That way, they can reframe the battle as less important than artist rights, etc. :sas2:

Plus, Drake can say, “if they do it to me, they will definitely do it to you” :mjpls:

That’s been a fight for decades in music and film. But even basic napkin math will tell you it’s impossible for Drake to hit even on that deal after a couple years. That’s not a knock on Drake either. Prime Michael Jackson wouldn’t recoup that quick.

This man and his Coli fans spent the last few months telling us NLU had no impact on his streams or popularity yet now they’re all arguing so much damage was done that he can’t satisfy his contract lmao. Make it make sense.

The real problem is that his new shyt isn’t nearly as popular as his old shyt, and that deal is based on the assumption that he’d be rolling out God’s Plan/In My Feelings/etc jams. That isn’t happening, his old music (pre-new deal) is dominating his streams. And instead of making better music he’s crying about legal harm lol.
This!!!

If you’re not a lawyer or directly quoting a lawyer with relevant expertise it may be best to just not weigh in with your expert takes. The Tory case is proof of this.

Someone who’s never watched film is not gonna weigh in on two high safety coverage vs single high cover 3 and expect to be taken seriously.

This has never stopped the attorneys from Coli, Coli, and Glazers LLC before, why would it now? :pachaha:
