How so? While the world was dogpiling on Meek, fortune 500 companies clowning him, other celebrities roasting him, Cole allowed Drake to come on HIS tour and played hype man while Drake performed Back to Back. This was a factual occurrence.
It was all fun and games when Drake was the one basking in victory but now that its Drake’s turn to eat dirt all of a sudden its “disgusting”? fukk outta here. And I believe Cole is sincere because he’s been saying the same thing since he apologized but he’s also acting like he hasn’t seen how Hip Hop treats losers since rap battles have been a thing. Jay-Z had to literally FLEE to Europe for a month after Nas scorched him with Ether because people turned on him. Irv Gotti said himself that they’d be walking down the street in NY and random nikkas would be shouting out Ether lyrics at him. Ja Rule became the laughing stock of the entire industry after 50, G-Unit, Eminem, and BUSTA RHYMES ganged up on him. And Ja actually showed more heart than Drake could ever muster. He ain’t file no lawsuit.
Drake ain’t special. He put himself in a vulnerable position beefing with prominent artists and as soon as those artists smelled blood they attacked. Same thing would have happened to Kendrick if he’d lost. I GUARANTEE Big Sean, Jay Electronica, Lupe Fiasco and French Montana would have all taken major swipes at Kendrick if he looked like he was about to take an L to Drake. All of OVO would have clowned him. Akademicks would have thrown a block party. Joe Budden and his cronies would have been talking for WEEKS about how Compton was over and done for.
