Multiple people dropped disses towards Drake around the same time and none of them hit.

Had cats at the Grammys dancing and shyt.

Only Drake stans are pushing this Not Like Us was an attack on biracial people shyt.
I remember even Suge Knight called it out when it dropped. It was definitely an angle Kendrick took.

Hey all is fair in disses. I don't care that Kendrick said it. But that you got folks legit trying to argue that Drake is a colonizer and not black is a real issue.

Like Talib Kweli said, Kendrick only opened most people eyes about Drake not being like us...but deep down, they all knew something was off with this guy. Even him saying "nikka" didn't feel right.

He's the biggest foreigner hip hop has ever seen, and that includes Macklemore.

Drake isn't black, he doesn't act black, he doesn't respet the culture, he doesn't comprehend it.

He's not like us.
What does act black mean?
What is black culture to you?
How does he not comprehend it?

Drake is just as black as key and Peele, Kravitz, Ross kids, booker t Washington, and a great deal of blacks in the history of fba culture

J Cole don’t get it cause he doesn’t encite jealousy. He’s low key and people don’t view Cole as running the game the same way they do Drake. Simple shyt. I hate that it even comes off like I’m defending Drake. This shyt is stupid. But u cats do too many mental gymnastics trying to make this shyt something it ain’t rather than just keeping it real and saying u hate the nikka and that’s why the disses hit harder for yall. lol. U clearly hate Drake. And that’s cool I get it. But there’s no logical reason to say Eminem isn’t a colonizer but Drake is meanwhile Eminem prolly has ancestors that owned slaves. That’s insane. lol.

Nah, J Cole don't get it because he is actually connected to Hip Hop and black American culture.

"We dont wanna hear you say nikka no more"

The first thing he does next is weaponize the word nikka, like a peckerwood. Somebody who is of the culture would know better than to do any of that and you know it. You also know it ain't about him having a black dad or not, it's about who he is at his core and that is not Hip Hop, he came from outside the culture to dominate, exploit and cash in on. You can call Em a colonizer if you like or say he's worse by default because he's actually white when one of the biggest knocks against him is that he doesn't imitate black music lol, point being he doesn't get that treatment aside from Ghost calling him a Pilgrim because he is rooted in the culture enough to show fukking respect.

Na
Drake is JEWISH, he had a fukking bat mitzvah. It ain't about whether he's black or not, who his absentee father is or not. He wasn't raised within the culture and it SHOWS in the way he moves. Some of the biggest missteps he made in this battle were things that someone raised in the culture would know better than to do but there is an obvious disconnect.

You keep talking about foreigners, tethers and who's mixed, I'm talking about Hip Hop culture. Just because you're black doesn't mean you fully understand wtf is going on in Hip Hop culture, especially for foreigners since you're so hung up on bringing that into the argument. It's why Drake trying to instigate a UK vs. US. rap beef ain't work because THIS IS OUR shyt.
Yeah its some Black ppl who were born here and try to engage in hood shyt who really shouldn't be able to

But slang has become so gentrified you can't even say that now

Ppl will look at you crazy for calling it out

Lames really won

I just wanna say that Aubrey is not a black man. He is a biracial man (Oreo) who as he ages is starting to look like a culture vulture white man

People making it about him being mixed are playing dumb. J Cole is mixed too, but he ain't wearing black face, making punchlines out of slavery, saying that foreign rappers are better than rappers in the states and a whole host of sucka shyt.

So lemme ask u a question? Is Eminem a colonizer?
Eminem respected our culture way more than Drake :dead:


Eminem is a white man respecting and being fan of black culture. Drake is a colonizer that doesn't respect it (maybe not intentional, but that still proves the point)
