@slausongirlnews She had 4! Years and she did nothing . There’s still TRASH motor homes under the freeway to this day! just look 👀
Bass and her administration failed our beautiful and beloved city.
Did the label throw everything behind Kendrick?💀
The issue here is regional loyalty.
Every region supports their own artists.
Problems arise when loyalty outweighs honesty and the music itself.
When respected voices stop judging music fairly because they’ve already chosen a side.
This was the same thing people saw happen during the beef.
People picked who they wanted on top before any records even dropped. Bars went unnoticed. Music was dismissed.
Now it feels like we’re witnessing the same pattern again, but now bots are replaced by real people.
Everything Drake releases gets labeled as “mid” by sections of the West Coast and their podcaster friends.
And it’s not because they genuinely believe that.
Some people leveraged everything on that outcome, that beef, and now they have to stand by it.- And this is why they’re all doubling down on their words.
Drake has been relevant since day one.
His music played in cars, clubs, parties, radio, sports arenas, playlists, and social media.
That level of dominance is significant in any genre.
Because when people think of artists operating at that level, they think Drake, Eminem, Kanye, Nicki, 50, Wayne, and more.
These artists moved beyond one lane and became part of everyday culture.
And then there’s Drake. Not just part of that conversation, he rose above it.
Operating at the very top of the pyramid musically for over a decade.
Kendrick’s name was known, but he never operated at the same level as those above.
Being respected and operating at that higher level are two different things.
So if the goal was to take down someone operating there, and above, they chose the wrong target.
And this has hurt rap over the past two years.
Because if you truly love the culture, you should want the genre to thrive.
You should celebrate anyone pushing it forward, rather than sticking to predetermined judgments and gatekeeping, which limit its reach.
And now all these dusty old heads out here losing credibility defending a mountain on which they already bet everything, for a man (Kendrick) who could never fill Drake’s shoes.
Great video below🔽 well said. As always, he cooked the midget as always.🪓🪓
Streaming 🧊🧊🧊🧊Man.
I see some of the west coast really salty. I’m just a hip hop fan and I’m loving every moment seeing grown ass men hating on drake.
Give this man his flowers. Hip hop, r&b, he did it for the love of the music. And it showed.
