You quote me with some random ass article about ANOTHER rapperšŸ¤£šŸ˜‚. Avoiding bringing up your guy the salty deadbeat 50 year old drug junkie who fled to South Africa to avoid paying his Past due Child support.


This ainā€™t Pusha vs Drake, this is Mos Def vs Drake.


Good Night.
This ain't even Mos vs Drake.

This is Mos getting interviewed and sharing his honest opinion on what was being asked, and mostly everyone saying "yeah he's right" and all the Drake fanboys catching feelings.

Yasiin PR stuntinā€™ like a Department of Revenue arrest warrant coming, nobody but the news after he fled the country to avoid his dad responsibilities mentioned that manā€™s name in over 15 years until he gave his ā€œopinionā€, You must be one of them deadbeat ones toošŸ¤£šŸ˜‚

Go that way nikkašŸ‘‰šŸ¾šŸ‘‰šŸ¾šŸ‘‰šŸ¾šŸ‘‰šŸ¾šŸ‘‰šŸ¾ā€¦

A mos and Drake beef is one of the most random things
People arent allowed to have opinions about him without his fans catching feelings. Same thing with Eminem. Their fanbase are insecure, and ppl like drake and eminem are their pathway to the culture. So if these rappers aint hip hop, that means they aint hip hop lol.

If u looking at drake as a true fan of hip hop, there's nothing wrong with what Mos said. His music is good, but its safe and its a formula. He isnt a true hip hop artist cause he's singing more than have da time and doesnt even write his own lyrics....and even if he wrote everything he isnt saying much Its commercial and he's a pop star

No one would ever question whether j cole or kendrick is hip hop. There's a reason Drake gets called out

Wouldā€™ve happened what happened to Common. Donā€™t go there, they ainā€™t no hidden children to ā€œexposeā€. Drake will put his ass on a multi Platinum selling record that people will be rapping from the top of their lungs 10 years after itā€™s released real fast.




drake smoked common....

I was suprised common came weak I thought it was gonna b a fight :francis:

He took his chick and bodied him on wax. Not the last rapper he did that to.

ā€œshorty wanna to tell me secrets about a Rap nikka, I told the bytch is more attractive when you hold it downā€

Burned that man Soul. Broke him down and he bowed down and admitted he was emotional by going at Drake over a girl.

Huge fan of both and i don't even think what mos said is super controversial. drake himself has referenced his pop status and going away from the more lyrical or as he called it his old conscious shyt. but i also consider drake hip-hop too. idk - this just seemed weird/light to me that this is such a big deal in general. lowkey both are in my top 10 favorite rappers

Why do haters always wait for 1 famous guy to act like their hate is validated :mjlol:

Drake does make a lot of pop music, he makes club music, rappity rap music, that music , this music - if you can't hear that, that says more about you than him.

As far as Mos Def, dude was industry and Hollywood for 15 years in America, made a lot of money in America and retired now acts like he's been walking on clouds like some trust fund kid who acts like he doesn't like the money his dad gives him. And takes 25k trips to poor countries for 1 week jus to return to their million dollar house. I mean breh was a fukking model for Louis Vuitton just like last year. And on the backdrop of him working from Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy - I think they call them champagne socialists.

if you think he's hip hop thats fine,
i consider him hip hop to a degree as well.
I just dont understand how someone couldn't see why some ppl think he isn't. Its a pretty reasonable opinion lol

he even got mad when he was nominated in a rap category instead of a pop category.
