Why doesn't drake have any social responsibility ?

[ThiefyPoo]

Please refrain from the bs stan wars I don't make drake threads .



I see people always talk about how he doesn't need to talk about our issues because that's not his lane .


Why does it have to be his lane to bring awareness when he's one of the biggest entertainers .

It kinda make those people who say he's a culture vulture right .


I say that because hip hop wasn't just built on party music and fun . It was also a gateway for our people to communicate and spread word about what's going on .


This gives me pause as to why can someone like drake use the great parts of what we build . Yet he's not responsible for the tough subjects .

Before you bring all these young ignorant rappers up stop I'm talking about drake . He's one of the biggest entertainers and I'm using him as an example .


Now I might be wrong drake fans but what charity work does drake do ?

I've seen the baseball game donation during the meek beef but we all know that was just a pawn move.


Think he also donated to some lady in Ohio who suffered a tragedy .

Apart from that I don't see anything else but like I said I could be wrong .

I just don't understand why it's ok for him to use just the good parts of our culture .


Also please don't bring up drake speaking out about the police shooting that shyt was like 5 years too late .


Jay z and Beyoncé give a lot of money to charity and they never speak on it .



Why don't we hold drake accountable ?

You don't have to agree with my post I just want to hear some valid reasons .

He idolizes jay z.

Hes half white

Hes jewish

Hes about his money

No reason to be anything more then an entertainer

 

[ikbm]

cause drake doesnt hold himself accountable
everything is a ploy to make money to him
"if i went concious...i could get all of your fans"
its the reason he goes to ridiculous lengths by borrowing flows...songs, lyrics from different artists all over the globe...as a means to stay relevant.
he just wants to be the biggest artist...without any of the polarizing thoughts that may come with having an actual stance
plus he's a half jewish boy from toronto....thats enough right there

 

[stealthbomber]

he's making money in america but at the end the day he's canadian

i could give a fukk about mexico's problems



the little sublims he throws in every once in a while showing he's conscious of issues is enough for me

let american artists deal with american problems

OP stank p*ssy having ass believe hiphop was founded and gained popularity of social commentary/ responsibility







'Conscious' rap is for some, not for others - Get used to it..

OP stank p*ssy having ass dont know anything about hiphop if she believe social commentary is supposed to be a part of your domain and subject matter as a rapper

 

[Hungerpain]

His soul existence is to exploit cultures to further his career as an entertainer.THATS IT.
That's like asking why dont roaches pay Rent.
Nobody gonna get him out the paint because he make too many people bread so unfortunately were stuck with this Canadian caricature of a rapper/R&b singer until who knows.

If you really think about it Drake doesn't talk about shyt. That's probably why he's where he is. His content is basic shyt that's relatable...

**I have haters
**I have doubters
**Relationship drama
**Family struggles
**People switching up when I got bread

The everyday nicca/female can relate when they listen to a Drake joint. But relatability doesn't mean substance. There's not much substance to his music.

Him being a mixed Canadian also plays a part. He doesn't have to embrace political, cultural and societal issues because he's not fully Black and he's not American. So it gives him an easy out.

@Hennessy&Enemies YOU A CAC, YOU PINK DIKK SPF45 NEEDING TROLL.

cant fukking stand you, you have no life but claim you're rich


you wouldnt even call a number long distance from canada to prove your cac voice isnt a cac!!!

you have no respect for blakk women... you know why??? YOUR IDOL DIDNT COME OUT THE VAGINA OF ONE

 

[RammerJammer]

Didn't take long for a sensitive Drake stan to enter the thread. OP has a valid argument. She's not saying that Drake has to come out with a Dead Prez album *he'll probably bite them the next album though*

I mentioned that in the album thread...

I feel like he chooses the most generic things to make songs about in an effort to relate to as many ppl possible.

Whats the problem with doing that as an artist?

 

[010101]

the community he comes from ain't going through what we are they got their own problems
he's a fan of hip-hop/rap culture first and foremost but he's not really apart of the place it comes from
it's the same way safe suburban folk love that gangsta shyt but don't give a fukk about the fall out cause they don't feel the negatives
