WAITTTTTT because this is actually deeper than Hov being mad at Drake 😭😭😭
LIL WAYNE IS THE PROBLEM.
That nigga introduced NICKI MINAJ and DRAKE back to back and BOTH went on to become filthy rich off the very thing JAŸ-Z spent years convincing rap wasn’t enough:
THE FUCKING MUSIC. 😭
Do y’all understand how nasty that is???
For YEARS the JAŸ-Z/Roc Nation gospel was basically rap is the entrance. REAL success is ownership, investments, liquor, companies, equity, “I’m not a businessman I’m a business, man” blah blah blah 😭
Then Lil Wayne comes stumbling out the tour bus with a styrofoam cup and two psychopaths named Nicki Minaj & Drake and accidentally FUCKS THE WHOLE THESIS UP 😭😭😭😭
Because Nicki Minaj became a multimillionaire SUPERSTAR with RAP at the center of her empire.
And Drake??? That nigga took it somewhere disrespectful.
Drake basically said why tf do I need to prove I’m bigger than rap by leaving rap??? I’ll just make being DRAKE worth the business. 😭
Streams. Albums. Singles. Features. Touring. Catalog. Deals built around the value of HIS MUSIC and HIS audience.
That’s why y’all yelling “BUT JAŸ-Z IS A BILLIONAIRE!” never hits the way you think it does.
BITCH THAT’S THE POINT 😭😭😭
We said RAP and you started naming liquor.
We said MUSIC and you pulled out an investment portfolio.
We said RECORDS and suddenly y’all are giving us a Forbes presentation 😭😭😭😭
Meanwhile Drake can sit his ass right there in the original category and make you uncomfortable.
And THAT is what Lil Wayne unleashed that I don’t think people fully understand.
YMCMB produced TWO artists whose careers challenged the idea that the rapper’s ultimate victory was escaping the limitations of being “just an artist.”
Nicki Minaj made FEMALE RAP itself commercially enormous.
Drake made being a RECORDING ARTIST so lucrative, scalable and globally dominant that the old “rapper → businessman = final boss” hierarchy started looking real funny.
Lil Wayne ain’t teach them how to escape rap.
Lil Wayne introduced two motherfuckers(Nicki Minaj & Drake) who made rap worth staying home for. 😭😭😭
THAT is why the Drake/JAŸ-Z tension hits different when you look at the economics underneath it.
Because JAŸ-Z mythology says:
“Look what rap allowed me to become.”
Drake’s career answers:
“Look what I became without needing to stop making RAP the receipt.”
OH THAT’S NASTYYYYYY 😭😭😭😭😭
And the funniest part???
Lil Wayne never had to give a TED Talk about it.
That nigga just said “I got Nicki Minaj. I got Drake”.
And twenty years later Roc Nation gotta explain why the spreadsheet needs liquor brands on it.
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 😭😭😭
YMCMB.
Put the fries in the bag, Shawn Carter. 🍟
BREAKING 🚨
RUSSIAN AIR DEFENSE DETECTS UKRAINIAN FIGHTER JET
Russian air-defense forces have reportedly detected and tracked a Ukrainian military aircraft during heightened combat operations.
The development highlights Moscow’s continued focus on strengthening airspace surveillance and maintaining high operational readiness amid escalating hostilities.
We went to circle to buy 4 used hard disk drives for our lab and it was funny when the vendor formatted all 4 in front of us thinking the data was gone. I was like “ah what does this guy think he’s doing?”😂😂.
Formatting doesn’t equate to data wiping.
This is just one of the drives and the forensics process is not even done.
Funny enough I have gotten hold of a PowerPoint document dated back to 2004😂✊🏽.
Artifacts retrieval still on going.
The church is stationed & they don’t need to setup every week. Everything has been fixed accordingly. TGMA has just some few days to setup, and since it’s a live broadcast, there’s no chance or time to do try and error.
The sad part about the Gloves thing is that, they use it to touch EVERYTHING which defeats its purpose. I pray those who use it will change it frequently in a day.
Only if roadside food vendors knew how much of a difference it would make in their sales if they took hygiene a bit more seriously. Simple things like gloves, nose masks, hair caps, etc would go a long way and boost sales significantly
