Yasiin Bey(Mos Def) says Drake's music is pop and is compatible with shopping at Target.

BTW this is actually true. Back when I lived in LA, every time I went into the local 7-11 they were playing Nice For What. It happened at least six or seven times I went in that bytch. Had me feeling like the simulation was glitching

LMAO at shopping with an edge

Drake probably wouldn't disagree. Didn't years ago he said one of his goals was getting a vegas residency or some shyt like that?

Drake makes easy listening hip hop. Even his “real hip hop” songs are easy listening.

nikkas talking about Mos is hating need to stop dikkriding. To much dikkriding in rap now instead of just being honest

If all of Drake’s rappity rap songs are “easy listening” then post some hip hop songs by mainstream artists that you wouldn’t consider it easy listening.

Mos def is original backpack, ofcourse he ain’t fukkin with the mainstream bs

However, I do think it should be noted that multiple legends don’t fuk with drake’s music at all.

People are gonna focus on the whole Target bit but the “what’s in it for your audience besides banging the Pom poms” should be the focus

Drake trash

 

[King Harlem]

Hes right tho. Even though drake being pop is pretty obvious

He's not right. We always conveniently forget the origins of Hip Hop was party music and the MC would get the crowd going. Drake is Hip Hop.

 

[dtownreppin214]

why is he talking like that?

No because for many it would force them to look at their favorite rapper because it applies or that rapper tried to make it so. Rap been pop for almost 3 decades. All pop means is popular and no genre has been bigger this century. Also hating involves jealousy and wishing ill. I didnt detect either. Sounds like his opinion which he is obviously entitled to.

 

[Formerly Black Trash]

I don’t like Drake, sounds like some hate / weird though.

I feel like if you laugh like that it ain't hate

Just your opinion
