[@theAfricanObserver]

I'm tired of comments like "Drake isn't true hip-hop". People accept change everywhere except hip-hop. Even though Hiphop is from America's inner cities, it is now a global art form. It has evolved from its early origins, and the definition of blackness has evolved from just America to a large black diaspora. Drake represents this black diaspora, venturing out into the different art forms and bringing them to the limelight. Drakes' feature with Wizkid was a big moment for Afrobeats in America and Nigeria. His branching out is not a negative but a positive, only Americans and supposed "true hip-hop fans" see it this way. Kendrick and Drake have their role and space in hip-hop, one is not better than the other. The definition of the black struggle must also evolve for black Americans, there is a large black diaspora out there that connects with the art form and loves some form of representation. Drake featuring other artists from other art forms shines a light on their music and even sometimes is followed by American music money for the local music industry. Your video to some aspect has a narrow American view of Drake.

[@BJC-pk8cm]

You need to EDUCATE YOURSELF ON KENDRICK LAMAR. Your ignorance shows when you accuse him of probably having a persona. His entire album MR.MORALE SPEAKS TO ALL OF HIS DEMONS AND SHORT COMMINGS. He's always been honest about who he is. You've completely ruined your so called documentary for me. You're not smart at all, Sir.

[@Johnnybravo0ox]

​@@fredronknowles4200 cope harder

[@jacquesbossou5484]

The video is really great but I think chapter 8 misses the mark. The reason why Drake's accusations towards Kendrick Lamar haven't caused much of a stir is because Kendrick already talks about all his shortcomings in his music. He doesn't portray himself as a role model at all, but as a flawed person who tries to make the right choices, and keeps saying "I am not your saviour." And Drake HAS claimed to be part of the culture.

Kendrick did reject the idea of people calling him a messiah and a savior or a righteous and flawless person. wrote a whole album about it. why does every other person talking about this beef ignore this fact. he speaks on important and impactful issues, he brings attention to them, he makes people think and reflect on them, maybe inspires people but he can't solve the issues for people. none of the artists/celebrities can.

[@kimaya4503]

Whole album just went through one ear and out the other for a lot of people because it was too introspective I guess. Otherwise pretty good vid

[@leultrainstinct406]

No. Kendrick only used that idea when it was convenient. Yet 2 years later here he is trying to take that role again and control everyone’s opinions so they can all hate on another man. He becomes the savior when he wants to hide his insecurities. But abandons that role when the pressure gets too much. Biggest hypocrite

[@lighter_fluid420]

@@leultrainstinct406 How was the pressure "too much" when he made MR. moral? That argument doesn't make sense. He isn't trying to be any one's savior; is he supposed to just stop making music?

[@tbrill2]

I don’t know if you’ve actually listened to “Mr. Morale”, but Kendrick addresses his infidelity, his depression and his inability to continue to be a martyr for his community. He is instead stating that while he cares for all these things he has to heal himself and his family, the crown of thrones represents Christ Conscious in that he will sacrifice all for his family, that he chooses himself and his family other then standing as a cultural figure….. so all Drake did was listen to Kendrick’s album and regurgitate the self proclaimed struggles Kendrick already told his audience. That’s what makes this battle even greater, Kendrick can expose his own mind and his struggles publicly , Drake just wants fame..

[@Fast_and_Cool]

You're absolutely right 💯

[@mims1992-y6c]

I think Drake was banking on the fact that the majority of his fans will not have listened to Mr. Morale, so he was playing this perception/public image game more than anything. Hip Hop heads will know its a regurgitation, but the wider public might not. The issue is while Drake was trying to service the wider public with his raps - Kendrick was coming from the perspective of black culture and those within it (and also those who even if they are not black, they have taken the time and effort to try to understand that culture intimately) - which ultimately in the world of hip hop is what matters most. You gotta get that down before trying to achieve anything else if you truly want to be respected as a hip hop/rapper rather than just a pop star. Kendrick's focus on the culture - one that he is intimately familiar with given his background and experiences - is what ultimately contributed to his winning this beef in my opinion.

[@TennesseeWhiskii]

Damn, you should do your own Documentary on the subject! Holler at me when it's up lol

[@finished6267]

[@notcompletelynormal]

This part drives me crazy. All these reactors saying it’s ridiculous that Drake accused Kendrick of cheating, being an absent father and Whitney possibly leaving, since that would ruin his reputation, while also clowning on Drake for not understanding Mother I Sober. Meanwhile, Kendrick literally has a whole verse on that song on him not having any addictions except one: “sleepin' with other women” and how much it hurt Whitney. Later he says he “made it home, seven years of tour, chasin' manhood”, followed by “But Whitney's gone, by time you hear this song, she did all she could”, then on how these other women made him feel and that he prays their children don’t take after him. I think you have a great point in saying “Drake’s just saying out loud what Kendrick already said, what all fans know” - but then why do all these reactors insist that they’re fans, but that these are lies and shocking, unrealistic allegations? I just think it’s a double standard. I am absolutely not a Drake fan, but the fact that people believe everything from Kendrick and nothing from Drake, even when the guy admitted it himself seems wild. That feels just as weird as these Drake-stans in denial, insisting he won and can do nothing wrong.

Drake is not your savior. Kendrick is not your savior. Cheating on Whitney is no revelation because Kendrick talked about it extensively on Mr Morale, the album you mentioned which I don’t believe you actually listened to like all other drake fans. “A title he did not reject”, again clearly did not listen to DAMN or Mr Morale because Kendrick very clearly does not want the title of Hip Hop’s messiah. If you see him wearing the crown of thorns and think it’s literal, I’m sorry but you need to get better at critical thinking and analysis.

Mans is hella downplaying some crazy stuff, ESPECIALLY the dating inappropriately underage women part. Even if it is ‘typical’ for a celebrity (it really isnt), its still insane especially for someone of Drake’s high-status position. It also seems like he downplays the same typa thing (13:15) where he says “but none of this really lies beyond the realm of respectable behaviour in the entertainment industry. “ … “And none of what I said is UNUSUAL in context” For context, right before these sentences he talks about drake texting underage women (specifically Millie (at 14), and Kylie Jenner (at 16)) only to brush it off (at least to me) saying its not unusual (WHAT?).

Volksgeist putting out great content. Thank you

[@Trinsolo]

I never understood why people loved him so much. His voice is whiny, and his whole persona is disingenuous. The industry pushes this man in our face, and even then, I never like him.

[@user-ki1vd3ti8j]

It's not about the Industry pushing him. It's about the people who actually buy his music. The Industry only provides what the customers are willing to consume.

[@Trinsolo]

@user-ki1vd3ti8j Well, he was really good in the beginning. It's after 2016 that things went downhill.

[@coupdsantana206]

If drake would just be whoever he truly is, i feel like so many people wouldn't dislike him 🤦🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

[@j.t.fletcher2214]

Baka's got a weird case why is he around?

[@MegaIIII]

Again, Dr Dre is a literal wife bearer and Kendrick still sees him as his mentor, top dawg too is a domestic abuser.

[@j.t.fletcher2214]

@@MegaIIII if only Drake was smart enough to use it in this battle. Baka is a sex trafficker. The difference being that Baka is getting paid by Drake and Kendrick was working for questionable people. But Drake clearly didn't actually care or else he'd have leaned in a little more on those ideas. He missed a lot of opportunities to turn the tides in his favor

Drake is not the rapper that started singing first Kanye West was the conduit for that via 808's and Heartbreak. In fact Drake's first Album Thank Me Later was a knock off of 808's. Kanye chastised Drake and Noah 40 about it. Drake, Travis, Lil Uzi all of those guys singing are Kanye's children not Drake's.

It was really cathartic seeing Drake get destroyed

[@Hollowendz]

That’s why I always hated the started from the bottom song cause I knew his history.. he was just trying to cater to the hood.. But if I am mad at him for doing so should I be mad at movie directors/writers

[@mohamedfahad2364]

Volksgeist you need to listen to Mr Mor ale coz it appears that you didn’t listen to it based off the way you mischaracterized Kendrick.
