So let me see if I follow..
The reason he raps with a Southern drawl is because he spent summers with his dad in Memphis....
But he doesn't talk with a Southern drawl, at all... Ever...
So was his only form of communication with the people of Memphis in the form of raps?
Cut that dumb sh1t out...
If you like his music then cool, I do too.. Lets just not pretend that his Southern accent is as inauthentic as Nicki Minaj's british accent...
Its just blind hate....Drake seem about the same to me,just seem like he been around a buncha nikkas and think he cool now just like Justin Bieber....think he a little tuffer now,a little more cocky now....is it phony?I don't know,hangin around black folks and us not rubbin off on you I think would be difficult
...its harmless though really,I haven't seen em do a 180...I've seen street rappers change they demeanor and have a change in attitude after the money,fame and excess more than I've noticed with Drake which is all natural....on wax dude seems pretty consistent to me unless I'm not listenin close enuff which is possible,I don't check for everything he do.
... like it would be one thing if the guy was out there, essentially portraying the suburban toronto version of Rick Ross....if "Drake, the rap character" was out there thuggin in public like he's Jew-Pac... but he's not even registering chris brown, kanye, ray j, or even justin bieber levels on the "unlikely non-threatening celebrities channelling the spirit of 2pac" meter ....he's the same goofy ass mixed kid from that teen age sitcom that wanted to become a rapper, that just happened to grow up to actually be a rapper...he never claimed to be anything but that...I don't know what other people see when they see drake today, but i see a suburban half jewish nikka living like a rap star...which seems like a simple enough concept ...but then people treat the idea of a bi-racial kid that self identifies with both sides of his lineage as some 
or 
type stuff...it's not hard to clown Drake for being a corny rapper if that's what you think without reducing it to that middle school "he ain't really black, so they had to send him to the ghetto for a year so he could learn to disrespect women like a real black man 
" sh!t...it's embarrassing
Drake serves a purpose though, because the second someone tells me they fukk with him hard pause I know I can automatically discredit their opinion on anything hip-hop related
he still makes good music tho.
But aren't beats and rhy.....ahh forget it.
Some of it does, but not all of it. Like I remember the fake upset over "Started From the Bottom"... "Oh Drake didn't start from the bottom, what is he talking about". shyt is relative, living with his mom, starring on Nickelodeon shows. was not where he wanted to be in life. So he grinded and got to a higher plateau. People so focus on the "Bottom" part instead of the "Now I'm Here" part. Drake doesn't even talk about his past in music that much, he much more focused on the present. And presently you have to admit Drake is that nikka in his realm/industry.
U could say this about any rapper... U nikkaz suffer from selective outrage.
This pretty much reinforced what I thought his core fanbase to be..U could say this about any rapper... U nikkaz suffer from selective outrage.
Because of Drake we get free mix tape albums as a standard now and he has also used his fame to help artists he likes blow up. Sounds like a horrible person right?
