Why Doesn't Hip Hop Respect Drake?

Ten years after his breakout EP So Far Gone, Drake’s legacy is in a firm yet complicated position. Undeniably, Drake is one of hip-hop’s biggest game-changers ever and has a good chance of becoming the best-selling hip-hop artist of all time. But despite his big status, and in some ways because of this status, the shift in the masses from celebrating Drake to hating on Drake was quick and intense. In particular, we will look at how increasing commercial success, ghostwriting allegations, and constant time in the limelight has changed the popular opinion of Drake from a goofy, non-threatening Canadian hitmaker to one of hip hops most clowned rappers.

Drake is a market genius. He knows how to keep his name relevant. As a fan, I can admit that nowadays he chases trends instead of creating them like he did before. It was a time (2010-15) that didn’t hear any bad or corny verses from Drake. Even if he put out trash; general public is going to eat it up just bc who he is. Drake will most likely go down as the most popular rapper of all time and you can’t hate him for out smarting the game.

[@mrblend]

I feel like he never had a chance from the American hip-hop folks. He was always fighting from the start, they tried the "he is Canadian", "he aint from the hood", then the "ghost writing stuff" allowed the community that was against him to LEVEL UP, LOL. I would do what Drake is doing, if the hiphop/rap community doesn't respect him... I would say fuck em anyway. Go for just being the best artist while keeping a choke hold on the urban culture. Global icon is better anyway.

[@resolvexi808]

@John Thats not even the main reason. You dont have to be from hardcore streets to make it and be respected in Hip Hop, its the fact hes lied so much throughout his music and doesnt care about the culture and those that got him there at all. He spit over one Dilla beat and after that never mentioned his name again. He cheated with ghost writers and sent his fanbase of dumbass females to attack Meek for speaking the truth. He speaks of women like objects and they still suck up to him. These people just dont understand the anger that brings to those struggling. None of this would matter if he didnt act like he wasnt the best in hip hop, and Put out "Gods plan" as if he cares at all about any of them people. To top it off he only smirks the hate off cause he knows he got money. Thats all these people will ever back him up with, the money and his "character". And Mr blend fuck you, and fuck the 1% taking all the wealth like they deserve it. All that money will be nothing when hes dead and he'll just be remembered for being rich and loving himself. Pac and Biggie will be remembered for being who the fuck they were and not an actor.

[@kingxixu1029]

[@resolvexi808]

@John they dont fuck with him because hes an actor whos trying to portray a hard hip hop mogul whos the "best", when in reality hes just acting and singing words other people helped wrote. And they hate to see someone so inauthentic make more than those whove really struggled and crafted an important message. Drake was cool when he first started out. Just a kid rapping like everyone else does. But he fucked up lying about shit and acting like hes the best then backing off after a beef and claiming to have a Industry killing diss.. And that being from the streets shit aint cool, it's fucking sad. Its all glorified on the radio. White mommas listening to war stories in the car like they should be vibing to it . I hate seeing my city like this, and seeing people who come from it talk about it likes its nothing. Shit needs to change and that aint gonna happen with a hip hop full of drakes and drill rappers. Niggas who use their influence for themselves, and niggas who dont use their Influence for shit!

Show me a community in Canada where there is no high school and the middle school doesn’t have books or supplies? Name a community where they don’t have large grocery stores because there’s too much theft. In Detroit they drive cars through walls of businesses all the time. People do armed robberies for $500 to feed their kids. You can die for $20 in Detroit. There are several classes below Canada’s lowest class in America. A Canadian can’t understand having no healthcare and a job that doesn’t pay enough, with the highest car insurance and worst roads in the country.

Ayrton Goncalves Yeah, I agree. When you are about the regulation of titles, Drake can’t walk around talking about being the best. He’s a great entertainer though & has been the most dominant rapper in history. Staying on top for 10+ is no joke & I feel he still has some legs on him.

That was his last dope project as far as I’m concerned, but I think that his style has gone too far into the pop category coupled with the same tired themes of fame, women, and issues he has with other rappers. I don’t doubt that Drake can put out another solid project, but I’m not convinced he will. Just my $0.02.

I think you missed going into Drake's rep as a wave rider. His whole pull a new artist up can be read as part of that, and people clowned him on the Toronto Raptors super fandom because before that he was riding the Warriors, and the Heat. That feeds into him coming off as inauthentic. Now, that alone isn't enough to sink someone, there are tons of inauthentic rap artists, but he's inauthentic in ways that play into the natural suspicion people have of him already. That's why pusha's dis was so devastating: it felt like exposure of the in-authenticity on multiple levels.

[@hibomohamed7710]

When I was in Europe, I saw this video of Drake, it wasn't even Rap, it was this video, I couldn't even see him or hear him well, I was who this, I was this track even though interesting is not my kind of track, later not knowing that him ( Drake), I saw a a few video's of him, I was like what, this is exactly some of the stuff I studied. So I knew then he was good, checking his issue, which I think is addiction. I was watching other videos and listening to other tracks, so busy with promoting music I liked, then when, I think, he was ten years into the game, and he was still around, plus I saw his acceptance speech I think it was at (AMA, I am not sure, pls when you have the time check that) he was so positive, in life you gotta be positive to get any where. For me personally, Drake the past years since his signing is blank for me. I am excited about the coming years, since in the Rap game, people are ordinarily pawns, they got to come up with what sells to everybody, no matter the demographics, and since the cross over is an insult in the real Rap genre. So yeah, most authentic Rappers are on low income, construction worker, sanitation, admin; labels such fashion, music, public relations etc. My mom always said to me" this world's wealth has already been allocated". So Drake is light-skinned, he's not from the ghetto's of America. I know, what African American men respect in terms of Rap, in my view that era is over. " Hip Hop is dead" ( Nas) I think it died when Tupac and Biggie died. R.I.P. Today I am blessed I can listen to that good music of the 90s.

[@KingSpaceySprockets]

I put Drake in like the category of Kobe and Tom Brady-people love them majority of do, but they still have a lot of haters or people who dislike them. I am not a big fan of Drake as a person but his music is great.

[@BarbaPamino]

I like him as a person but I think his music is shit.

SteveDonJovi the best and simplistic way to sum it up. Had to explain this to my nephew tonight how if you’re great than you’re great and nobody can take that from you when you put them numbers up. I hate the patriots as a team but not as individuals beings I don’t know none of them. I’m a eagles fan from Philadelphia. However I wouldn’t call them a trash as team when they’re getting rings left and right like Russian mail order brides. It is what is and some people need to just understand that some people are destined for greatness at no matter the cost 💯
