He's hating and he wrong..which makes it even more pathetic.
Drake is hip hop just all these other nikkas is hip hop
The irony is Drake is preferred to Mos in nearly all circles...
Yasiin Bey(Mos Def) says Drake's music is pop and is compatible with shopping at Target.

That's exactly what I found refreshing about it. Everybody has to pump fake like they fukk with everyone now, and it's dope to see someone just be real for a minute.
it's not like he's pretending to be Doom. I don't get how this is controversial.
Other artists cover songs or pay tribute to artists all the time. Mos is a KNOWN Doom stan. Like huge superfan. He did music videos of Doom songs years ago
if I ever heard another breh cover DMX songs I'd make phone calls n pull up quick fast. thats not happening with no punches being thrown.
First off PREACH CHURCH TABERNACLE...
regardless of Mos' transgressions he was at some point a very dope hip hop ARTist
From that view Drake is just a product for a certain target NOTHING MORE NOTHING LESS
AYO Nas PLEASE NEVER THROW THIS BRAIDED BEARDED LIPO CONFUSED TRY HARD c*nt A FEATURE DUNN

Okay, I can respect that.
Okay, I apologize. I was just tripping because you said you would try to play me but not other Coli rappers. My bad. We're hip hoppers, let's not beef. Let's leave that to X and Insta comment sections. The Coli should be built up with mutual respect.

The first video is dope. I wish he would of stayed like that. That dress style and passion for good hip hop.
Your posts put me in my place regarding all of this.
To everyone on the Coli - I don't really mean Drake is a better emcee than Mos Def. I meant for the long term and success wise.
Mos Def "Was" miles ahead of Drake emcee wise. Probably still is.
He was really, really dope. I just feel freaked out because of the child support accusations, the not releasing solo albums and especially his name change.
I did like him. That video you posted of him talking on Doom? That passion for Doom's rhymes? And Hip Hop? And what he said about vinyl records?
Or him at that XXL Harlem photo shoot where he was so happy mentioning all the greats there like Kool Keith?
Yes, that's Mos Def at his best. If he did anything recently that you feel is dope, put me on.

I mean… yeah. Been saying this to people IrL. And a lot of these other people are also pop or wanna be pop artist.
“I love this mall, so many products”
“I love this mall, so many products”
A better human being? Huh? How would you deduce that? You don't know either of them in real life. Weird ass thing to say. And I don't get why Mos doing a tribute show to Doom is a negative thing to you. Weird shyt all around Crumple.
I hate when basic interviewers get an honest subject on and ask them questions. She over here talking about "yeah i like drake" trying to clear herself like of course you do. Are you gonna add anything noteworthy or just leech off of mos?
....because Drake stans aren't very smart.....or self-aware....Drake stans love bragging that he's the most popular rapper, then when somebody points out its because he makes pop music, it's "Why you hating tho?"
See?

Word. @Crumple , I usually fukks with your posts and opinions on hip-hop, but your points are all over the place here breh. Like, what has Mos done to deserve so much venom in your eyes? All of this to defend this clown? :
Mos force fed himself in solidarity with Guantanamo Bay prisoners who were on a hunger strike protesting the inhumane conditions, torture, and unjust imprisonment they were being forced to endure, and were being force fed through nasal tubes against their will, and you say you don't respect it because it's "self-abuse"??
No shyt it's self-abuse, that was the whole point. He was trying to raise awareness to their plight and the conditions of the hundreds of people being held there extra-judicially.
That's like saying you don't respect people who donate blood to The Red Cross because they're abusing themselves. You keep talking about how terrible of a person he is, but you even shyt on the man when he does things for righteous and moral reasons. Can't have it both ways.
I retracted a bunch of things I said on this thread by hearing others out. My bad.
