Speaking from my own white suburban upper middle class perspective, I think I understand why Drake does this. When you grow up listening to art from people who've survived unimaginable physical and spiritual turmoil you start to associate good art with pain. This assumption forms that in order to be a great artist, you have to have a determination that can only be born in you when you come up from nothing. And when you've never worried about where your next meal will come from, or if you even have a future at all, you get insecure. You feel like you don't have anything meaningful to contribute. To deal with this you can either do as Drake does, dress yourself in traditions you don't know anything about while leaning on tenuous connections to your culture of choice to essentially steal valor, or you can recognize the truth about art which is that the secret ingredient is not pain. It's *truth.* The reason the great rappers from the streets are great isn't because their childhoods were violent and painful, it's because they chose to express their experiences in ways that provide entertainment, meaning, and peace to others. Being a rapper who sings isn't the problem. Being soft isn't the problem. Being half-white isn't the problem. Dishonesty is.

[@danielpatterson1576]

@@GodaerentalosBieber was hated in the early 2010’s for two reasons. First, the obnoxious amount of hip hop stars that were featuring on his tracks, people knew damn well the only reason for those features is because Usher wanted to build Justin into an RnB/Hip Hop star and use his connections to make more cash off Justin’s success, and the majority of people weren’t having it (myself included, that’s not Justin’s lane, he’s a pop star and a damn good one, but he’s not Usher, The Weeknd, etc.). Second, his early relationship with Selena Gomez was extremely public, especially their breakup; his entire life was shoved into people’s faces, but the relationship in particular became such a recurring obsession in the media that it created problems between the two, and it damaged both of them mentally and emotionally. The difference here is that Justin and Drake are entirely different. Justin never tried to be something he wasn’t, even with all those features he still only made pop tracks. He didn’t act like he was some champion of the less fortunate, or pretend that he endured the same struggles and experiences of those he featured with. Drake did. Justin isn’t perfect, never has been, he was raised in a shitty industry that used and abused him for profit, but for the most part he’s honest, about himself, his upbringing, his past and mistakes. Drake isn’t. As Kendrick said in MTG, Drake lies, he lies about everything, his personality, career, all of it is fake.

8:08 drake in these clips actually seemed very likable. He seemed like some average chill dude with ambitions which I prefer rather than a culture vulture fraud willing to lie for fame

[@nwatson2773]

The saddest part is that he seems so unhappy despite the money and fame

[@leultrainstinct406]

When has drake ever lied for fame? He’s never not once said he was from the hood or was ever in a gang. Y’all just create fake narratives. Kendrick got people who aren’t black calling drake a culture vulture what has the world come to😂😂

[@cowboydelnorte3078]

Finally some smart people. Drake never raked anything y’all gay af hating on him taking sides etc with this Ken doll J cole ish going on. Get a life listen to Immortal Technique start there ftw 💥

[@722.fxbien2]

@@nwatson2773Money doesn't equal happiness,people always say that,his situation is most likely just a living example of that

[@Dapper_Dad]

That’s why Wayne told him to just be himself. Wayne wouldn’t have vouched for him if he didn’t see what he could have been. He’s an emotionally damaged person that entrenched himself in his vices. Kendrick saw that too so he wrote TPAB, but unfortunately Drake didn’t listen and tried to stab Kendrick in the back(I think during the 100 MV he did with Game). So then we got DAMN.

[@dr.alexander7039]

I never understood how people call Eminem a culture vulture, yet those same people have given Drake a free pass, especially after he paraded around in BLACKFACE.

[@colie2020]

Em is cool. Drake is not. I've never heard anyone like Drake over Em in the hood. They don't always play Em in the hood but we they don't hate him.

[@WaltrPnkmn]

How did someone consider him as culture vulture? He literally grew up in the hood and knows what it be like even tho he's white. And he's not really talk abt it in his songs unlike drake

[@AJJr-hc5lz]

​@@WaltrPnkmn he considers himself a vulture. He's compared himself to elvis in that regard

[@shinyyoungstar931]

They both are July Rev 2:9, 3:9 All the music, entertainment, money etc is own by July very own. Taylor Swift too They put their own on top because it's their own business. Everyone else is pawns in a game chase. If they want riches, they must give up a lot . Drake draconian Dracula Started from the bottom wasn't talking about his career 6th god... 6 is falling, unlike 9 is rising Toronto is cold....... That's the opposite of jungles aka heaven Toronto raptors... Drake is old as dinosaurs aka Draconian wanna be dragons. Get his some of his tweets now ?

I also remember when Drake started rapping. I was a freshman in high school. He was still on Degrassi and they were promoting his music videos on the network at one point. I remember thinking “he ain’t gon make it” 💀

[@2muchReality7ven]

I remember this time period is when I started seeing his music. comeback season was out and thats when I gave him a chance but he eventually started following new direction with his music when the industry started to clown him for signing and rapping.

[@Shay416]

Y'all remember J Diggs - Push it Up?!? That's what everyone was bumping ppl said that was the dude we chose. The difference is Aubrey has better connections

[@Boogs.310]

@@2muchReality7ven Mhm, exactly. Wish he would have just stayed true to himself. Or like Wayne said “keep it Canadian” lol

[@Boogs.310]

@@Shay416 I had to look him up. Nah, I’m from the states. I’ve never heard of that dude, but I can see that everyone in the comments are calling him “the original Drake” haha

And now bro is the most streamed artist on the planet. That's crazy.

[@TheRealPennylow]

@@leultrainstinct406if you’re at you’re friends house for the first time and they yell, talk back or give attitude to their mom , yes it’s normal to assume that’s normal for them but of course it’ll be weird and stand out to you because you know not to do that because their are consequences. if they have the grapes to act bratty and disrespectful at their big age , it’s safe to say that’s been the norm for their relationship because they don’t suffer any real consequences from their behavior and it shows . And yes if they act that way towards their mom , also again at their big know better age . they’re prom to act the same if not worse towards people who aren’t her as they get older .

[@TheRealPennylow]

@@leultrainstinct406also this comment is about drake being 6 years older than the 17 year old girl at the time , kissing her and saying “ your breast feels great against my chest “ . Aka Creep

[@BurningMoreXP]

I’ve known ultra white people that don’t live as white as Drake.

[@leultrainstinct406]

The fact being black is always associated with being poor and struggling is the real issue in this whole race baiting argument Kendrick brainwashed y’all into thinking

[@leultrainstinct406]

yet none of them became the biggest rapper in the world because they didn’t understand the culture enough or have the skill and talent

[@LeoMes01]

Usually drake fans are lower middle class Drake didnt even grow up Lower middle class and could probablt have a debt and work free college experience.

7:35 “…inspired me to get into music particularly pharrell, he’s like one of my idols” he says this as he flaunts melting pharrells old chains, and saying he can’t stand him sing. so fake and performative. cornball activity
