Nobody said Drake isn't black.
Nah. yall do this shyt all the time
Kendrick even called his son a black man lol. The thing people are commenting about is the way Drake cosplays with black culture.
a black man can’t cosplay black culture…yall are all over the place. UNLESS…you think theres narrow definitions of blackness. Yall did this shyt when Kanye came on the scene. Then Cudi. Then Childish Gambino.

Yall are literally the Carltons yall think yall aren’t.
From African American culture (Houston, Atlanta, Memphis, etc) to Carribean to top boy/UK grime/etc.
Drake has never cosplayed black culture. Not once. He’s paid homage to places of influence, reverence, and respect. Unless you think these are rigid lines that can’t be violated or engaged with
This is a guy who grew up surrounded by white people,
Wrong again. The guy grew up in mixed neighborhoods and all his childhood friends are black
who used to make fun of black slang in front of his white friends, and came in the game not even knowing how to properly say "nikka" lmao.
The guy was raised by a white mom before his dad left in an international city
The issue isn't even the code switching, it's his disdain for black cultures
This is untrue. Factually untrue. He’s never had disdain for black culture.
until it was time for him to become a rapper. He's a fraud, an actor. And he has no real culture to go back to or lean on.
You can’t say he comes from no culture when you neglect Toronto culture.

:mjlol: Ross was the one calling Drake a white boy not Dot.
“fubu was never in your collection"

c’mon now. Yall are playing with this shyt cause yall really want it both ways. Either you’re narrowly defining blackness or you’re gatekeeping in some special way to exclude Drake. Just admit that yall think this is about aesthetic and not some actual objective marker.

J Cole has been skating by wearing beat up clothes and cycling around with dreads for the last 5 years and yall ate it up.

Ebro does this shyt too while hiding that he’s got a white jewish mom too :dead:

You all are really cheap dates when it comes time to have “culture” discussions.

grand opening grand closing. People gonna accuse Justin of being bitter and ignore the fact that this loser apologized to Justin.

My only issue with Justin's reaction was that I don't think it's crazy to believe Drake was saying nikka more than usual in response to Kendrick - because multiple people on the Coli called that the day Family Matters dropped. From the way his white mom starts the song by suggesting he not say the word, to the word being the first thing Drake says....yea, I can buy Drake saying it a bunch of times to "prove" he can. And you know what? That's another example of Drake not being of the culture and wearing blackness (specifically African American blackness) as a costume. Because a normal black person wouldn't even think like that.
The same way school boy Q encouraged white fans to sing thf n word ? Or Kdor had the white girl saying it . You guys are just Kendrick parrots you keep saying the “culture “ this that as if we got some culture check list. It sounds stupid

no he doesn't your drake stannery is if causing you come at good reasonable posters for no reason :dead:
There is no “reasonable” argument in spewing bullshyt about “Drake cosplaying blackness” then saying some shyt about “Drake hopping between different parts of the black diaspora"

My nikka…is this illegal or something? What are yall talking about? Yall sound IN-fukkING-SANE right now. Like this is some visceral violation at the core of your spirit or something.

Are you linguistically challenged? Are you all this immature? I mean I’ve been waiting for MONTHS for someone to tell me what criminal sin was violated by Drake working across the BLACK diaspora. The nikka NEVER did white pop collabs. And this is how yall act? :gucci:

I’ve been seeing this shyt for months and people just accept it whole cloth with no push back as if they themselves have some secret understanding.

They can’t actually explain what the problem is with Drake doing all this stuff across the BLACK/AFRICAN diaspora but they for some reason hate it. They can’t even articulate it. They dont even have the ability to say “hey he could sell it better” or “I wish it sounded more authentic” or “his accent makes me feel like he’s not really from [insert location]”…BUT THEY CANT DO IT. They’re illiterate lemmings! Not once did Drake c00n, or mock, or even beclown himself or disrespect the black community or its representatives.

Yall let Wayne come out here and disrespect BLM. Yall had Nicki Minaj out here doing chicken and watermelon stage performances. Etc. Drake NEVER did any of that shyt. Even had Kodak and Sexy Red out here sucking off Trump. Even French Montana is doing songs with Lara Trump :mindblown:

Like WTF are nikkas talking about right now? :dahell:
