Mad lightskinned artists were praised basically universally before Drake....Lionel Richie, Michael Jackson, Prince, Heavy D and more. So it's not that.

Regular Michael Jackson was not Light Skinned

He is clearly being lighthearted and joking, but leave it to the 50-year-old posters in here to find a reason to hate on both Drake and Lil Wayne. lol

Lil Wayne has shared why he thinks people in Hip Hop “hate on” Drake, and he believes it has to do with the color of his Young Money collaborator’s skin.

The New Orleans legend stopped by The Richard Sherman Podcast on Friday (January 19) to share his thoughts.

“I get that from my upbringing, from being around Birdman,” he began, when Sherman praised his talent-scouting abilities.

When Sherman asked why people hate on Drake, Weezy didn’t hesitate to weigh in. “He red, he light-skinned.”

“That’s just American history,” he continued. “How I know is, because I’m not light-skinned. I hated on all light-skinned dudes in school. So yeah, it’s American history, man.”

Check out the full interview below. The comments about Drake begin at about the 16:15 mark.
