How can you be from the hood and root for a "culture vulture" to end Meek Mill's career?

[The Emperor]

I'm a fan of both Meek and Drake's music, but how can you root for a guy that a number of rappers have called a "culture vulture" over the guy who really started from the bottom?

i'm not asking whose music you prefer. i'm not asking who won the battle.

i'm asking how can you wanna see this dude fail at the hands of a "cultural appropriator"

how can you root for a man to go to jail because he dissed drake?

If you are a rapper right now who do you want to give you a verse for your single.

Also Drake is just as entitled to make music as Meek.

How was his life privilege? I didn't know he lived in mansions and held yacht parties.

I sincerely hope you're trolling with this post.

I just let y'all talk and embarrass yourselves.

I have to thank god I'm not a lame

A lame?

Bruh, this street shyt was NEVER cool outside of the movies and a few songs here and there. That shyt doesn't make you a better person by any degree. Meek won a life lottery...all those boys around him are still hoping for the same chance.

 

[OfTheCross]

No.

Just.

No.

Summer Sixteen is a BETTER song. Not even close.

War Pain is a better DISS. Big difference.

How is it a better song?

The beat?

Lyrics?

Flow?

Performance?

Cadence?

Impact?

Reception?

Engineering?

Arrangement?

Break it down for me, fam

What does any of that have to do with the topic?

I think some of yall legit have learning disabilities.

I don't even care about Meek Mill, he's not even on my radar. I don't listen to any of his disses and as far as I'm concerned this "beef" died last summer.

Literally all those categories were better in Summer Sixteen. Its literally meant to be a song. shyt was wittier too.

But Meek dissed Drake directly and outright, so yeah, thats the only leg up he has when it comes to comparing the songs.

Meek is just airing Drake out on an instrumental.

You can like it if you want, and don't get me wrong Meek isn't a bad artist himself, but if we're talking SONG MAKING CAPABILITY, Drake is gonna win every time.

You're acting like "the hood" means something that it doesn't.

And then you're claiming this "culture vulture" shyt...what culture is Meek defending BTW? Cause if we let real stewards of the community tell it, all that gun talk and drug talk ain't exactly helping either.

But no...you want to discuss this on some perceived masculinity shyt so you can feel better about this whole "alpha male" vs "feminine behavior" shyt...

Drake warned these dudes about acting tough instead of being themselves...We know how that ends.

 

[gho3st]

now we are getting to the root of the matter ... But lets cut the bullshyt, Drake makes better music than Meek Mill


Yes Meek mill got a great Flow but he is mediocre as a Rapper. He's the equivalent of a basketball player with great handles that can't shoot the ball to save his fukking life. shyt, He even struggles with layups and dunks

 

[3rdWorld]

Cause the better rapper won?
Who cares who is from the hood. I post on the coli
I'm about empowering my people, don't give a fcuk about convicted felons who promote destructive activities from the comforts of their Olde City condos.
I like meek but he ain't getting my blind support because his parents made fcuked up decisions and raised him broke with struggle braids

How is he the better rapper when he cant write his own shyt and needs another man to speak for him. He's female status cause that's who gets written for? ??
Self expression is a cornerstone of hip-hop. You must be one of those edm fans that migrated to hip-hop.
And you're right on one thing about Drake..he's a rapper. Not an emcee.

You dumb mothafukka I'm countering your weak argument that Drake is a culture vulture by stating that he's just as entitled to make rap music as Meek.

And also you slow mothafukka I'm asking the question "If you were a rapper and needed a verse for your single who would you call Meek or Drake?"

I know who Meek called a lot...

 

[Tetris v2.0]

As soon as you come to terms with the fact that Drake is this era's Eminem; and that this era is MUCH different from the previous one...it all makes sense. Hip-Hop is big business, tied into all sorts of marketing and brand from corporate sponsors. He's tied up with the NBA, Apple, Sprite, Universal Music Group and the City of Toronto (which is growing in a major way on a WORLD stage)

All of these entities have the ability to shape and guide the masses towards certain trends and ideas, and it is very much in their best interest to not let Drake fail unless he actually does something awful (criminal charge, rape/sexual assault) in which case they will throw him under the bus on their OWN terms in a way that benefits them. Id be highly surprised if they let Drake fall over some petty rap beef over who writes lyrics and who is actually from the hood...

I'm not trying to hang out with and be friends with these guys my G, I care about nothing BUT the music

Read the first post again and youll see that this thread obviously doesnt apply to you then.

Why yall keep responding with sh*t that has nothing to do with the thread?

 

[NaijaProdigy Redux]

I don't even care who wins ultimately...I just want some good music to come out this...War Pain was dope as hell

And breh I ain't from the hood. I'm soft. I went to boarding school with nikkas that look like Drake
