No, they don't. The hell? :heh:

So let me get this straight. Drake is Jewish and tried to get into 2 industries dominated by Jews. He's from Canada, one of the nicest places on the planet. Not only that, he's from one of the richest parts of Canada, and had friends with acting agent dads that hooked up his gig on "Degrassi".

If I gave you an acting agent, and literally nothing else off that list, then you'd have a point. Dude hit the lotto as far as advantages go. Why people are so loath to admit that, I dunno. The ironic part is if Drake never made the song, this wouldn't even be a point of discussion. He did, so here we are.

Fred.



Man I like your posts in the breaking bad thread but you obviously have no idea about the music or entertainment industry if you think its that easy to just be put on. The industry tries to make stars every day and fails. What drake did is special and something to be proud off.

Dudes don't even know what hating is...pardon them...it's a American slang term


ppl aren't hating on drake their giving their honest opinion...

hate would be something like saying drake don't sell ..something that's blatantly not true...


to say someone is hating...when their giving their opinion is called dikk riding

acting was this dudes dream. rap superstar was his plan B. he had the family to do so.

what a peasant that all of us no having, hope to one day get it, all aspire to be.

let us just sit here and watch this poor, poor boy, cards stacked against him. prinicipal didn't want him to succeed, society didn't, just completely overcome all odds and become an inspiration for a lifetime.

damn brehs.

that's what the kids will say.

These nikkas is hating. nikkas is stupid at that. So if a nikka ain't the poorest of poor, he was never at the bottom? FOH! shyt is illogical. tell me the difference between a family that moves to a good neighborhood and struggles to make ends meet and a family who remains in the hood and send their kids to private schools and keep their home in order and kids fixed up? What is the difference. Their really isn't one.

NY all day..Da Stead & BK..
what mixtapes did he have in 07? I know you not talking about the "prince of Va" stuff.

the mixtapes and the free styles came after Trey Day (which came out fall 07)

This is "Just gotta make it" Trey songz that we are talking about.
No it isn't..."Just Gotta Make It" came out like 04-05...Trey had mixtapes and mixtape songs out BEFORE 07...shyt..I still bump that "Games We Play" mixtape track he did to The Game "I Don't Need Your Love" beat...just gotta make it was already out for damn near 3 years already in 07...

Its cause a lot of these dudes actually had rap dreams. They cant objectively look at drakes success without feeling like failures. Its hilarious they try to downplay coming from Canada and being on a teen TV show to being the best rapper in the game just like that. Its not like anyone gave it to him, he kept grinding and now the industry has no choice but to fukk with drake. He keeps making hit after hit and anthem after anthem. He pretty much is the rap game and everyone else follows his lead. It was great watching his career unfold.

you do know forest hill homes cost more than a milly right?
Now or then? And so what if they did, do. You can still be the poorest amongst your peer group. nikkas in the hood ain't poorer than nikkas in third world countries and shyt, but they claim the gutter, so why he holding Drake to a different standard.

for what its worth, the video made me appreciate his love for music.

I have no problem with drake rapping. what pisses me off is the ridiculous plant push and the unwarranted props that he gets for being an average rapper. hes not the only one tho.

and yea, that "started from the bottom" chit pisses me off as well, of course.

whatever man. if u think its cool for rich ppl to say they are poor than that's on u.

if drake started from the bottom then my making ends meet ass is deep in the earths crust or something. the bottom is rich and I guess the top is reserved for bill gates.
