Drake's Dad Claims Rapper Admitted to Making Up Absentee Father Lyrics to Sell Records

[Afro]

black American dad story

The absent black dad story sells more and garners more sympathy, sickening.

That line hit me pretty hard since my dad was in and out my life alot.

Playing with my emotions ain't cool man

 

[Knowledge]

Every bar he ever spit was the truth?! nikka don't even write his own bars tho

 

[CouldntBeMeTho]

Obviously they aint close like that otherwise theyd be on the same page about this. So im inclined to believe drake this one time

 

[NSSVO]

Smh he talks about visiting his pops.

 

[Strapped]

So is so far gone mostly

 

[Music Fiend]

The absent black dad story sells more and garners more sympathy, sickening.

Im just sayin this, I 100% believe everything breh said about his pops.

1) No pops would ever try to damage their sons career
2) It makes complete sense when they lived in 2 different places
3) wasnt this nikka in jail/prison for a bit
4) How many time have I heard this exact things from deadbeat dads. Some of these clowns will do the bare minimum for their kids and then expect to be praised for it because others have it worse

 

[Nature's Fury]

If I recall correctly, drake has a song where he name drops some of his cousins in Memphis and says something about southern America being part of his heritage.

Don’t sound Like that nikka was “absent” to me. Just divorced his mom and moved to a new city. shyt happens.

 

[Wild self]

"Boo hoo sad story, black American dad story"

Its sad that in mainstream rap, being some broke dude growing up without a father is considered "real" and "gangsta."

Nas spoke how people tried to give him hell because he grew up with a father in his crib, as well as slandering him because he dropped pro black records.

 

[get these nets]

"maybe I should talk rap about how Black people have to struggle, yeah....that'll get them on my side"

 

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

Monkey suit Dennis


Tick tick tick

 

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

I tell you how I know Dennis lying.
He know goddamn well he called him "Aubrey" coming up.
This "Drake" shyt is new.

I did think about that

Like this nikka been going by Drake for only thr last 10 years

Dad bought into the gimmick

 

[iBrowse]

You are hiding a child your father.

Pusha T. Push a ton. Push a ton of that shyt that makes ya nose run.

"maybe I should talk rap about how Black people have to struggle, yeah....that'll get them on my side"

 

[JLova]

Drakes dad wasn’t in the home. So while he may have had trips in the summer it’s not the same. Imagine growing up seeing a parent every few months.

I’m sure drake embellishes shyt just like any rapper. I never got the opinion that his father was a deadbeat.

 

[Easy-E]

That’s not enough

He was from a different country....
