Joe's Take on Yasiin Bey (Mos Def) Shading Drake | "The MC's Don't F**k with Yall"

[@TheDreadknoxx]

[@bjvu9460]

That doesnt make any sense because when you get to shopping music, that means you have made it. The one thing haters do but isnt smart enough to realize is, they claim that when you are adored by the masses , you for some reason have sold out because they couldnt do that. Mos Def is only known in a small, let me rephrase that, an extremely small, segment of the game because he wasnt talented enough to go beyond the small block he was on. THATS IT! Its like the drug dealer criticizing the mob boss saying he no longer stand out on the block, hustle on the streets and get shot at and be in the game because now, he sits in his mansion and control the entire cartel and call hits from his private plane .. MOS def is the drug dealer on his block, that couldnt expand beyond his block and drake is that drug dealer who started on a block and now runs the entire cartel in the country. The goal in business is to make money and most def didnt go to school so he had no clue about BUSINESS IN MUSIC BUSINESS!

"the empire" "buying and selling", it's not hate it's a POV, a perspective. Maybe the fact that it was a jab, the way he said it was hilarious, dilutes the content: Drake is pop in a sense that is consumer based for the masses who want something just because, not because of the quality of the goods, not because there is artistry to it. Mos Def ain't lying.

[@This_Is_Skooba]

Most def is about the culture. Drake is about moving units. To be fair to Drake though I don't have a problem with it. You can't deny the talent. And it's okay to go that route. But when going that route you can never be considered a top 5 or 10 emcee. That's what makes Lil Wayne, Jay z, Eminem so impressive. Cus they have the numbers and they are emcees at its core.

[@joungyalen25]

Sounds a little pretentious. Art always gets annoying with the whole purists vs. pop niggas just having fun thing. I think Freddy Mercury said it best, you get tired of making serious songs all the time. Art is about having fun too. Plus, people tend to put Drake in a box when he can do both. He can make fun pop music, but he also has bars and clearly respects and spends time on his craft. I don't get how you can listen to songs like the Middle of the Ocean or If the Shoe Fits and marginalize him as a pop rapper just because the nigga can make a Nice for What as well. It's like mfs pick and choose what side of Drake they want to acknowledge when he's clearly multi-faceted. Respect to Mos Def, but it sounds exhausting trying to take yourself so seriously all the time.

Why do we call any and every unpopular opinion hate? When Joe gave his honest critique of Drake's last album he was labeled a hater also. It is true that without any malice in your heart, you can give an honest opinion that may be unfavorable to others who simply may not see things from your perspective or agree with it altogether. Joe clearly is aware of this because he stops himself from making a point @3:25 because he knows he'd be put back into that "hater" box he so often finds himself in when giving his (very educated) opinion that is found unfavorable to others. Primarily that artist fans. I like the unapologetic Joe that callees it like he sees it and creates a space where TRUE opinions and views are shared. Not watered down ones where everyone expected to be buddies. Everyone isn't going to like what you do or your opinion (when asked) about what they are doing. Let's stop calling them haters.

He makes microwave music...music that's quickly made and will hit that hunger itch for a little while but will always leave you wanting something with a little more substance. Drake drops music like every couple months and the last few projects are forgotten quickly. He makes music that's easily accessible by EVERYONE. That's the literally definition of a pop artist.

Drake is pop. Him using the meth Clip cause he know he can't say shit about mos. Drake mad he'll never get the respect he craves from the method mans mos defs, buddens of the game

[@PrinceCortezJones]

i would be salty too. Especially if i made better music. Imagine actually believing Mos, method or Joe were better than Drake because they are "purists". Problem is when Drake decides to spit he spits better than all those you mentioned and that's fact. Drake isnt just a better artist than those people, but he RAPS better than all those artists too.

[@thecunninlynguist]

​@@PrinceCortezJones😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 hell no. Drake does not make better nor spit better than any of them. Stop.

Y’all like to conveniently forget about his classic verses and diss records 😅

I like Drake but he's pop he in the bruno mars lane more than anything. Only reason he is considered hip-hop is cuz Wayne put him on that's alllll.

[@Highznberg]

When I heard "7 am on Bridle Path", I was convinced this dude is nice with it. And this is coming from a 51 year old 90's era type hip-hop head.

[@thedon0516]

Drake has a shit ton of bar heavy songs just like that bro, check then out, I'm sure you'll fuck with them

FACTS!

[@clarencecrawford2078]

In light of recent events once again Mos was profound in his analysis. 😂

[@tcrawford213]

Why is honesty considered hate 🤔 😂😂

[@Queenofpentacles1]

Why is a critique or opinion have to be hate … this is a very simplistic view of conversation

[@221ddj]

This wasn't hate on the part of Mos Def...Drake is pop, but he ain't trash. He feels like trash right now, should probably stick to dissing people not named Kendrick. I never bought a Drake album, not worth multiple listens in my opinion.

[@Isiah61]

It’s hate BUT it’s only a diss if Drake takes it as a diss. Breakdown what Mos said “Drakes music sounds like, it’s acceptable enough by most people, to be play in common shared community areas” If Drake took that as a diss it means he doesn’t believe in his own bars.

[@King-oj8hr]

Dislike and hate are completely different things…

[@sharroberts9083]

DMX told us all his hate for lil drakey and he wasn't hatin at all. He was telling what people are finally getting
