dont give a fukk about aubrey here

iim mad about fif sitting down with andrew schulz, especially right now

yeah most people are stupid, and kids eat up vapid shyt and add numbers, what's your point?

I didn't ask you what her sales were, I asked you if she was good. Notice you can't think for your fukking self and use sales as a metric because you lack any artistic ability to tell if someone is talented or if music is good unless you have a co-sign by a populous. It's not just the skills, her music was better too.

Out of touch are the drake fans that thought this battle was going to go well for Drake, I remember drake fans saying Not like us wouldn't play in the clubs. Being that I have business in the nightlife industry, I'm around this shyt likely more than you (so I touch grass); and told people it will play. it's the nikkas that aint cool, and can't set trends that don't see where shyt is going, so they lap up the shyt that has the numbers because they need to "feel" in, and are scared to move on their own.

justin beiber sold more than outkast; ariana grande sold more than lauryn hill, McDonalds sells more than Au Cheval...seeing a trend here?

starbucks probably has the best coffee to you huh? gets the most sales.

Nothing you said negates what I said. You're actually co-signing my point. I've been saying these things since 2009, because I WAS THERE, for Drakes ascent. Go figure, that my opinions are based in actually being there.

Crazy how that works.

"Drake didn't become "That nikka" in Southern Black Spaces until he got with Migos, Atlanta, and Futuere" <---Negate this. If you can't, then there's nothing to discuss.

Real question, how old are you?

And what region of the united states are you from?

Negates what you said....nikka I wasn't even talking to you. . I should have attached a trigger warning to that post.

As for the rest of that crap...nobody cares about your arbitrary "b but but was he the most popular in my hood tho?!" goalpost moving exercises.

If you was really out here when Drake came up you'd know he was already getting heavy play from black folks already by the So Far Gone days. By the time Thank Me Later dropped he was in the stratosphere. Everybody fukked with this when it dropped since it just so happened to be during Trey Songz peak



Anyone claiming otherwise is delusional, it's not up for debate fr

What region are you from? They were NOT playing successful like that in exclusively black Southern spaces. HBCU at MOST. SoFarGone was a huge POP rap album. It did it's numbers, but he wasn't in that same space as Southern rap artist when it comes to popularity in black clubs. Drake wasn't being blasted "in the hood" like that until he got with Atlanta and hopped on that wave. He wasn't in the strip clubsphere neither.

Trigga Trey was already an established artist. What that mean?

Migos, and Future were the biggest facelift and kept Drake in these spaces well past what we anticipated his shelflife would be. He was an immensley popular POP rapper. That was his niche.

Notice this dude can't talk about anything but numbers and popularity lol That's why he likes Drake. He likes the idea of him being popular. that's all.

McDonalds is popular too. Guess it's quality then. notice you found away to avoid addressing my actual post. (because there isn't a way to do so)

btw, better music by lesser known artists don't blow because of people like you. you should have a strong enough love for hip hop and an artistic IQ to say "hey, this girl should be wayyy ahead of Cardi B and sexxy Redd, let me support that"

instead you support and defend the guy who brought us sexxy redd? and makes that type of music also? Vapid. You'd make bad music if you tried.

still can't answer if the girl is good or not regardless of sales talk. Has to check what other people think lmao

I mean, I agree to some extent. Kendrick is like the dog that chases a car.

He caught it but, now what? Kendrick is the kind of artist that drops every 2-3 years and keeps a low profile in between projects.

He's not going to go on a run like Drake did from 09 to 16 holding us down every summer. That's just not him.

With that said, Drake hasn't been that version of Drake in years. He's been running on fumes.

The reality is Drake, Cole and Kendrick were the Millennial answer to "Biggie, Jay-Z and Nas" but they really shouldn't be at the forefront anymore as they're all approaching 40. The industry should have had new blood take over by now. This would be like if Jay-Z was still the most popular rapper in 2008 and Wayne, TI, and Kanye never took over.

Fans and the labels were too eager to crown the next guy, that’s why overrated generic ass Lil Baby has been flopping like crazy for years. They put him on a pedestal he should’ve never been on (“the next Lil Wayne”) and even as somebody that’s never been a Wayne fan, he was never at all close to 06-09 Wayne.

you're not going back and forth because it's not a fight you'd win. We've all been on this shyt long enough to know what it looks like when a user wants no smoke and has no retort.

Set the ego aside and concede those weren't jokes, then we'd get somewhere.

sometimes I test ya'll by throwing out some easy shyt to refute...and funny enough ya'll always got smoke when the argument is easy lol

entertainment shyt led to a trump election; maybe we should take it a bit more seriously. You still fukking with schulz after the non jokes I listed?

The reason I’m not engaging in this debate isn’t because I “don’t want the smoke” or have no retort; it’s because it’s clear you’ve already made up your mind that the world, and especially white people, are out to get you. When someone has such a fixed perspective, no amount of back-and-forth will lead to a productive conversation. And honestly, your interpretation of comedy suggests you don’t understand what comedy is meant to do.

The Flagrant podcast is full of comedians testing material, often pushing boundaries or presenting controversial ideas just to get a reaction. That’s the nature of comedy—it’s meant to challenge norms and provoke thought, not to be taken as some manifesto on race or politics. Sure, sometimes it’s in poor taste, but that’s part of the process of refining the craft. The problem is, you’re so focused on this imagined “race war” that you take offense to anything remotely edgy or provocative involving race.

Let’s step back for a moment: This is the only country where people obsessively categorize themselves as “Black” or “white.” In most other places, racial divides exist, but people don’t dwell on them to this extent. It’s not that prejudice doesn’t exist globally—it does—but the way Americans constantly dissect and amplify racial issues is unique. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t take racism seriously, but it does mean we need to pick our battles wisely. Getting offended by a joke on a comedy podcast? That’s not it.

And let’s be real: Do you honestly think someone like 50 Cent, who’s clashed with high-ranking white executives at Starz and elsewhere, would tolerate anyone disrespecting him? He’s shown repeatedly that he keeps the same energy no matter who he’s dealing with. That alone should tell you these moments are entertainment, not serious offenses. The fact that 50 willingly engages with these entertainers speaks volumes about how he views these situations: as business and comedy, not as a personal attack.

Finally, this militant, confrontational energy you’re so committed to? It doesn’t translate in real-world, professional settings. If you’ve worked in a corporate environment—especially in a high-ranking position—you’d know that the approach you’re advocating isn’t how you build relationships or advance in life. Non-Black people often find that kind of behavior off-putting because they don’t view the world through the same lens of constant opposition. It’s not about selling out or conforming; it’s about being strategic, knowing when to push back, and when to let trivial things slide.

At the end of the day, we should not be looking to comedians or entertainers for serious guidance on race relations or politics. Their job is to entertain, not to educate or inspire outrage. Taking them too seriously only gives their words more weight than they deserve. So no, I’m not upset by what was said—I recognize it for what it is: a joke. Maybe it’s time you do the same.

Successful and Best I Ever Had was played everywhere in NYC I don't know about down south.

They were.

All of his music has been.

I don’t care about the race argument but it’s crazy to find out that there’s some white guys telling some black guys in here that Drake doesn’t have black fans and his music wasn’t accepted til he did music with Migos etc. while detailing the experiences arent what they’re saying

But then also say the listeners like McDonald’s wtf man

I think it’s time for me to stay out of the booth lol
