What did Drake mean when he said you always rapping like you tryna get the slaves freed?

he claimed he didn't want to be called a rapper, thats true, specially after Prince and George Clinton said he could become the best mutli-genre artist since Prince :yeshrug:
Ironically, you could say that Prince not only met the Graham’s but even co-signed them :ohhh:

I think Drake was tryna make a similar point but failed in every possible way.

black history month aisle at Target, Nancy Pelosi kneeling in kente cloth raps…

the last time he actually was tasked with trying to actually speak real talk on racial matters, he blamed black people for cops killing unarmed black kids in some mainstream cac magazine while we were out in the streets fighting pigs in Ferguson ….there was backlash…the labels put the muzzle on him and he ain’t had a real life lucid interview about anything of worth since

Damn.

I always understood the angle to this but this is white boy like rhetoric and sounds anti black. “Why you rapping like you MLK or Malcolm X” would’ve connected better. There wasn’t not one real brotha in Drakes circle to say nah that ain’t it or foresee how that bar could be used against him?
They bytch ass Canadians. They lack the American sensibility to understand what saying that rhyme would do. I honestly liked Family matters but when I heard that rhyme I was like :patrice::picard:
