This.

Watch this video and then tell me Drake doesn't sound like a "whitewashed" black kid.



Suburban kids trying to take over hip-hop :snoop:.

It sounds weird as hell when a suburban black person says 'nikka'.

:snoop: @ 1:18



Do blacks from Canada say nikka as often as american ones?




Oh Lord, yall dudes been on one in this thread. I'd take Drake's suburban ass over, 90% off these "hood" nikkas with shytty lyrics whose hip hop existence is predicated on how "real" they are. Because that shyt ain't anymore hip hop than any other nonsense you cats wanna get behind.

And as for Drake or any Black or Suburban black person using the N word, I'm curious to know, who gets to officially use the word IYO?

are you saying the only nikkas who can say nikka are from the projects? What if you live in a house by the projects, do you get to use it sparingly? If you can pass the paper bag test are you limited to a usage count? I just wanna know.

He sounds the same as he does now when he's not rapping. Drake really doesnt put on an accent for rapping, outside of being a bit more "street" which almost every rapper does. He changes his inflections, and flow a lot too.

Yall saw my post about her rereleasing the album in september right? Man I tell you these record execs are shrewd masters when it comes to this whitewashing...they know people gonna be saying its no big deal cause the album sold less than 100K and fancy beong #1 for 5 weeks isnt anything because macklemore had multiple #1s...so the 7 new songs being released at least one or two more of them has a chance to be another big hit...the grammy cutoff is usually in october...so they still mau have a chance to push other songs before and give her am excuse to win multiple awards along with eminem

The better question is why should we feel the urge and right to fight tooth and nail to continue use a word that was used to disparage and dehumanize our people for over 400 years?

If this is what we think our only privilege as black people is...then that's not good at all.

You are absolutely right, but I'm not going to even touch that, because last time, I got roasted on here.

And don't forget this bullshyt.

Why yall keep comparing this bytch to Eminem?

Eminem is a hip hop legend whether yall care to admit it or not.

This chick ain't even an average mc.

And when did yall start giving a fukk about grammys?
