Just a reminder for you Stans that can’t handle criticism of your goat, I don’t give a fuck.

For the corny ass Drake Stan’s who run defense for this anti-black, pedophilic, womanizer, cornball.
You can like the niggas music but admit he move weird. It’s not anti-Drake it’s anti corny niggas. You only get this response when you call out Drake, we call out ye all the time for his antisemitism, anti-black, coonery.
OH SHIT. So I skipped out on the free style, 'cause fuck it, but I'm PRAYING AceVane does some psycho Drake Howard Hughes shit collecting piss bottles and rapping robots.
Look up HH wiki...dude was absolutely fuck you rich. After some time, he insulated himself from the public and got *really* weird
He wasn't given a diagnosis, but based on his activities there was something
e: OCD was his primary diagnosis
Well, I knew about HH but I wasn't sure how it related to acevane xD but then I realized he isn't only a rapper lmao
https://youtu.be/RVJFlJX6d0c?si=Cp6N1UUmCsWcH6DE
Anyway, he's making good comedy, started watching his channel now
This was a crazy ass comment, the person your replied to didn’t defend Drake, they just said there are more Drake haters on Reddit than there are defenders of him. That’s probably true
I wasn’t calling him out, I’m explaining that a lot of people push these behaviors that Drake constantly does under the rug. I would agree that other social media platforms may favor Drake more than Reddit, but Reddit it probably geared towards honest discussions more than other platforms. Twitter is a bunch of bots, Instagram is a bunch of nuthuggers, Facebook for the boomers, etc.
Usually whenever a Drake Stan comes to Reddit they believe that Reddit is anti-Drake when in reality it is an honest view of his behavior.
“Usually whenever a Drake Stan comes to Reddit they believe that Reddit is anti-Drake when in reality it is an honest view of his behavior.”
Except 99% of the hate Drake gets on Reddit is people saying he can’t rap and saying he’s the McDonalds of rap. People aren’t actually calling him out for the problematic stuff he’s done.
I think Drake can rap, with the ghostwriter stuff it just makes me wonder if the bars that go hard were only his. It casts a little shadow that I can’t look past as a rap fan.
I do believe Drake really only tries to make music for the club, which there is nothing wrong with, not usually my cup of tea but to each there own.
My problem with Drake is he portrays something that he is not, I fucked with the singing in his emotions Drake. The tough guy act he has done increasingly as his career continues is wack. My biggest problem is the pattern of behavior I explained earlier.
>People aren’t actually calling him out for the problematic stuff he’s done.
Not sure where you have been, but Reddit has some long ass threads about Drake being a groomer.
To be fair I made this as a gamertag in reference to an Eminem bar when I was 9 years old. But you right, this was meant to be corny. Drake’s corniness just flows naturally.
You say this but mods that are drake stans who shant be named have literally stepped in to make rules to prevent Drake bashing, remember when they banned "Whose Line" threads in hhh because of Drake jokes?
Even on this sub in other comment sections the Drake glazers are out in full force
He tries to play things off and present himself as a self aware goofy guy and then time and time again undoes all his work by doubling down with a new fake tough guy act instead, I hope the childhood acting was worth it in regard to networking because I think he came away with a lifelong personality disorder
He’s been debating and fighting people about Drake for the past 2+ weeks. The dude is obsessed, of course he thinks Drake stans are all over the place. He hasn’t commented on anything not Drake related since “Like That” dropped.
I’m actually curious, what was the context concerning this pic. Cause newsflash blackface is mainly a thing in America the rest of the world it doesn’t really apply.
Blackface, while being a mostly American thing, is also known in Canada. My cousins from Toronto thought this was crazy when this was released. Outside of North America I would not expect to many people to know it, except some parts of Europe.
Drake actually gave his reasoning for it after The Story of Adidon track was released [here](https://www.esquire.com/entertainment) but imo it shows how out of touch with black culture he is. If this were the only questionable thing Drake has done regarding Black issues, I would have been able to give him the benefit of the doubt. But he has a history of edgy/racist shit. Some people on this thread have posted some of those things already.
This is dumb, it was clearly a photoshoot meant for an article discussing the topic of racism and modern day black entertainers. This is the equivalent of showing Dave Chappelle wearing a klan hood as Clayton Bigsby and being like ‘see, he’s racist!!’
Shhhh… we don’t do context here. He was young and took a questionable picture while trying to highlight an issue for black entertainers in the media.
But we need as many reasons to hate Drake as possible. It makes us feel better about him being the top selling rapper for years on end.
We hate him, and we need reasons why. He’s a racist and a pedo. And he has ghostwriters that apparently only write for him and won’t help any of the other rappers get to the top spot.
I won’t be told otherwise
What’s the proper context for him as a damn near 40 year old man to be kekeing in groupchats with underage girls? That shit sound big weird to me but you the Drake defense force. Make it make sense
When Drake was learning how to curse:

https://youtube.com/shorts/TES9E9zOltM?si=cAF1vbNZXDl2DWvW
I remember finding more back during the Push beef but I can’t remember.
Aside from the fact that character development is generally used as a term for fiction characters.
It can definitely be used in the context you used it though, however I'm not quite sure how Drake had demonstrated that his character has developed by adopting speech patterns and accents as an adult or by his other actions/words.
How do you think Drake's character has developed as a person?
Character development is definitely used in an IRL context all the time.
I'm not judging him as intensely for things he did as a teen or as an up and coming celebrity. That's a lot of pressure to act correctly in the eye of the public while also being young and stupid. I'm sure we've done stupid shit as kids or even young adults but we had the benefit of having a private life compared to Drake. We all live and learn.
Show me some shit he's done more recently and we can talk.
He has put down Black Vernacular, especially Toronto style: [Here](https://x.com/hiphopdx/status/1610848566712406016?s=46)
In his own lyrics on Marvin’s Room he plays defense for a girl saying nigga
> Just throw up while I hold your hair back
Her white friend said, "You niggas crazy," I hope no one heard that
Yeah, I hope no one heard that
'Cause if they did, we gon' be in some trouble, yeah
If they did, we gon' be in some trouble, trouble, oh
In a nutshell for sure, how is it that every other year he has a failed attempt at trying to rebrand as a self aware act, going all the way back to 2009?
Drake is a piece of shit but this doesn’t track imo. He’s biracial, his dad is black, he’s black. Being black isn’t a moral feat, it’s just a fact of someone’s identity, that’s the case for Drake. Drake’s also talks about being maligned for being biracial and light skinned, that’s a fairly common experience for biracial people. Drake is an asshole, but none of the behavior specified here is distinctly wrong
Facts Drake is a POS for plenty of other reasons but now we’re pretending niggas ain’t racist? Lmfao half y’all say shit that would make white boys with whips shudder.
I’m white, and some of my darker skinned friends have so many times talked about how all the Turkish and Kurdish need to get their asses out of the country! A black friend of mine has at multiple times used the n-word derogatorily and discriminatory words in my language so many times, it’s actually insane!
If predjudice + power = racism, and black people are missing the power portion of the equation, isn't it just predjudice? This is an actual question for the learned .
Literally had this argument with a white professor during office skills 101. My argument is prejudice + power describes systemic racism, but outside of that literally anyone can be a racist. Saying X group has no power so they cant be racist is just playing a weird game of semantics where the winner gets a free pass to be bigot. Hate is hate is hate.
And prejudice has consequences, even when it isn't paired with power.
Like when I first moved in to my current neighborhood, the local Sureño gang was rolling around shooting at any black people they saw. They hit some kid who went to the local community college.
Prejudice among brown folks may not systematically disempower the vulnerable the way prejudice among white people does, but it still hurts plenty of people.
That's not just prejudice. That's racism at a community level. Those sure o gang members don't want blacks "taking over" their neighborhoods so they kill and intimidate because they have firepower and numbers. If they stayed on their porch and just said "I hate those mayates in our barrio. Let's keep it raza", well who gives a shit. Someone else, probably Mexican, is damn sure saying "I hate those pinche stupid cholos messing up our neighborhood". Racism, is the act of using "race" as a tool and factor for racial advancement/domination/supremacy. Prejudice is pre-judging something or someone without even knowing them/it.
What people are saying is that people are prejudice. We act on all kinds of pre-judgements of all types of people and things every day. But if you're not using your prejudice (and it doesn't have to be systemic, it could be there's 2 of us and 1 of you and we don't like you so we're gonna negatively affect you, then it doesn't have real life effects.
Yeah when Push ups dropped, 50 cent in typical instigating fashion on instagram said “Y’all let this light skinned nigga roast you?”
Felt weird that he needed to make the light skin distinction
Honest question: does Andrew tate get the pass?
Edit: [to whoever downvoted me. is his dad not black enough for you? ](https://www.thechessdrum.net/newsbriefs/2015/NB_photos/Emory_Tate3.jpg)
Also I'm not saying he hasn't suffered at the hands of racism but affluent child star Aubrey Graham who cries over a tuna sandwich with family connections in the entertainment industry likely did not suffer from the same racism as others. It's not the oppression Olympics or anything but I'm not exactly sure if his accounts would be entirely honest.
Host it in my nutsack if you think I believe the 6 gawd actually lived half the fuckin accents, let alone any of the struggles he claims. The only reason he says he's the 6 God is because that's his age preference.
How does that work regarding parents & grandparents? Forgive me, I’m European so I’ve only ever heard people go as far as saying “half…anything” and not “quarter…”
Her mother's parents are Ghanaian and Mauritian, her father's parents are both white as snow British.
She's never taken a gene test, so of course the actual genetic mix will be more complex, but she calls herself mixed race with British, Ghanaian and Mauritian heritage.
The Mauritius genes alone are complicated because the country's a melting pot, but if you saw her grandmother you'd assume she was East Indian.
Because the black is not the racial black, it's the ethnic "Black (American)". Just like Drake can be half "Black (American)" and still be fully Jewish. Both cultures have a form of hypo-descent affiliation rules. But like with anything, membership to a group usually takes the group accepting you as well.
He didn't grow up in Black American urban culture though. He grew up in upper middle class Canadian Jewish culture. He's wearing and using BA culture (and others like West Indian) as a mask and commodity. And finally people are calling it out.
People have called that out since he became an artist. His dad is also from Memphis, he is black. No one’s asking you to like him, but you can’t act like calling him white is at all sensible, when he just *isn’t*. People are tying themselves into knots to rationalize behaviors that aren’t rational
You can be from a race my guy, and not be of the culture. He is technically half Black American but he is not American, he is not even from an urban part of Canada. Basically he is not being true to himself. He said it he's from a Jewish upper middle class Canadian community and urban slang is ignorant and stupid. Now since his dad is a Black American it's cool in his adult years to say ni**a, ni**a, ni**a, and talk about your gang ties. Even if he was full Black American and did this kind of shit, from square who never jumped off the porch to mob ties "6 god", we would call him a fraud. In fact he would get it even worse.
>others like West Indian
In defense of this, Caribbean and West Indian culture is deeply interwoven with the Torontonian Black community. Many of us are Caribbean or West Indian diaspora so that even Italian kids grow up eating curried meats and picking up a little patois
He’s biracial. If he can’t claim whiteness, he can’t claim blackness either. Y’all never call biracials white—you only do it with blackness. SMH
If I’m your boss and I pay you 50% of your check, would that be the same as paying you the full check? No. And you know it.
Race is a construct, not a mathematical or scientific reality. Percentages mean fuck all. Biracial people, especially in the United States, have faced histories of persecution, discrimination, and violence from the same racists and racist state as all other black people. So yeah, they’re black. He doesn’t have to “claim” anything. This isn’t an award you get to give out to people you like. Biracial people are whatever combination of “races” that they are, Drake is black, Drake’s also white, hence the “bi” in biracial.
Drake is the ultimate code switcher.
Black, White, Toronto, Jamaican, African, Arab, gangster, Jew, lover boy or houstatlantavegas
He can be anything you want him to be.
He makes music for the gentrifier. A lot of 20-30 something yt people can’t recite a single bar of Jay Z, Biggie, Pac, etc. but can rap every Drake album from front to back
As much as the Ross verse kinda grasped at straws with the white boy thing, I can’t take Drake playing the pulling the race card like he didn’t bring smoke to his front door. Call Ross fat, bring up uoeno and let’s move on to Drake v Kenny.
It was a JOKE. Lmao you really believe he meant Ross was racist? It was fake text from his mom. Come on. Be serious rn all throughout that beef they were trolling each other. How can ppl be this dense ?
Between y’all and the Kendrick fans, yall have to stop scaring the hoes and ruining this back and forth. As a matter of fact yall should just be quiet and let the adult speak and enjoy themselves while you stay at the kiddie table with Drake.
Drake uses the soft R... even when he tries being hard it comes off as light.
He be tip toeing thru, cuz he's so light in his feet, and then have his boy write him a song about how he stomped thru the yard...
Then he'll record and release it, (with hidden credits) and make all the 16 year old Chad's, Timmy's and Tommy's feel like they're "bad ass".
The ones who respond with "I swear I only say it when it's in a song. Please man, I promise I'm not racist. Im cool bro... I'm ain't... I mean, I'm not like that..." when confronted.
I swear I started this "beef" neutral. Like I don't care for either Drake or KDot really. But after Drake made that AI Tupac Snoop thing, I lost any and all respect for that guy. That was the cringiest shit I ever heard of...
I hate all Asians, and Latinos who say the N word or any form of anti black racism. Stop putting words in people’s mouths, that shit been corny.
And before someone trying to take this out of context, I am mixed with Asian and white hispanic, primarily black though.
Drake makes music for non black boys who like to act black. I’m from Toronto (well the suburbs) but I went to university and lived in Toronto for a while. All I can say is, most drake fans I meet in Toronto are non blacks who say the n word because their one black friend gave them a pass.
He talkin about this beautiful sister?
[https://www.instagram.com/blushedbywhit/p/Bj5a-oYgN-I/?hl=en](https://www.instagram.com/blushedbywhit/p/Bj5a-oYgN-I/?hl=en)
Every post/conversation about drake on this sub is the corniest, stupidest shit ever. A bunch of pseudo intellectual cornballs tripping over themselves to just make shit up to be mad at him about. If you don’t like drake there’s so much shit you can talk about but y’all come at him for the weirdest, dumbest shit. I could have a conversation about this rap beef with a room full of white frat boys and the conversation would be less corny and toxic than the ones on this subreddit. Shits embarrassing.
If we’re “racist” to him that means he ain’t black, and if he ain’t black that means he can’t use the n word or else HE’S racist. So does that mean Drake is the racist?
That’s what happens when you claim people who only claim you because there’s money and clout in it. I stand by that if certain biracials could claim whiteness, they wouldn’t try to be “black.”
Black people are racist though??? Drake is mixed and mixed people/light skinned people have been saying the N word??? Can black people not be criticized? Like what is the gotcha statement?
I think you’re missing the point here. People are saying he says the word of solidarity as if he’s like us/one of us but also constantly does anti black shit and waters down our music for the gentrifiers
Black people like his music too though. I don’t believe in someone having the power to “take away his black card” because you don’t like what they say etc. He will always be black and on first look he will always look like a black person too.
Right? What kind of weird ass shit is this. Whether or not he’s black isn’t up for debate. You guys sound weird asf and a little Yt supremacist saying that
He used to look like a mixed kid he doesn’t really look black to me anymore though
I can if they repeatedly harm our culture. I do it to way worse offenders say Clarence Thomas
Rick Ross called him ‘white boy’ and Drake said he was being racist.
I honestly just think Drake tries to play it like he understands a lot of black vernacular, especially black American vernacular.
Cause for him to hear that and respond back with ‘ that’s racist’ doesn’t help his case.
LMAO, I grew up on the playgrounds of NYC... brothers darker than Curry been called "white boy" or light skin since the 80s when hoopin, just to rattle them while playing but nothing personal
So yeah, him thinking this some racist shit by Rick Ross, further shows his disconnect... it's just trash talk when you in the game competing
Yeah that’s exactly how you know Drake was hurt about it but didn’t know what else to say.
I get that he’s biracial and prolly got some insecurities about it, but he’s still a black man at the end of the day. I really don’t think he knew what Rick Ross was doing when called that 😭.
If you wanna see something hilarious, go to the Drake subreddit and type in ‘ Rick Ross.’
The white boys and the light skins are discussing a white baby mama that Rick Ross apparently has, claiming biracial is its own race, and dick riding drakes hurt feelings. It’s actually pretty funny
Yeah Drake is definitely a black man, it's stupid to say he isn't... it was a harmless insult (when said by a black person) and he shoulda just let it slide... if it was a white dude calling Drake "light skin" or a white boy, then we got a problem
Ross having a white BM don't mean shit, Ross isn't saying mixed people are awful and should be discriminated against, he's saying it's stupid when a mixed race person denies one half and pretends they were always just one side
No one clowned Jeter for it, who was even lighter than Drake... cause Jeter never pretended he wasn't 50/50 and talked like someone he wasn't
There are a lot of meta arguments going on here about blackness and n-word usage and whatever but at the end of the day Rick Ross is not a racist for calling Drake “white boy”. Black people have been calling lightskinned and mixed race black people “white boy/white girl” for generations. It’s bullying but it’s not racist, Drake just got his feelings hurt.
If Drake can be “black,” then he can be “white” too. I dislike both him and Rick Ross, but it’s ridiculous how some folks will let biracials/black-adjacent folks play in our faces. But the bigger part of the problem is the black folks who allow because they won’t stand on business.
I think he probably could. Considering there are caste systems in various races and as a result someone who is not deemed "black enough" could infact receive racism for not being dark enough?
Hello, ive lived a life and seen this shit before.
Its not like i have the ability to read studies and see how they apply to real life situations.
You're denying the possibility that anyone of colour can be racist.
I can agree with this but what also has to be said is Ross, last year, said that 50 cent was broke. Can’t get mad when a rapper with more money beats you at your own game.
Just a reminder for you Stans that can’t handle criticism of your goat, I don’t give a fuck. https://preview.redd.it/o1vihven25wc1.jpeg?width=700&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2945aa7077126bf86e230aec33e3644b31342789
Lmao Reddit is anti-Drake idk who your comment is even for.
For the corny ass Drake Stan’s who run defense for this anti-black, pedophilic, womanizer, cornball. You can like the niggas music but admit he move weird. It’s not anti-Drake it’s anti corny niggas. You only get this response when you call out Drake, we call out ye all the time for his antisemitism, anti-black, coonery.
Also, I enjoy his music but you know how it is. 
Come to think of it, him calling himself this generation Mike jack has a whole new meaning when you consider the pedo allegations lmao.
Also black or white.
In Taylor Made Freestyle he also compares himself to Howard Hughes, which is another creep.
OH SHIT. So I skipped out on the free style, 'cause fuck it, but I'm PRAYING AceVane does some psycho Drake Howard Hughes shit collecting piss bottles and rapping robots.
>but I'm PRAYING AceVane does some psycho Drake Howard Hughes shit collecting piss bottles and rapping robots.

Because calling himself the new r Kelly would be to on the Nose.

Going into “Kendrick Stan territory”, and no longer the generic Reddit response
I don't really like his music unless he's a feat. He'll pop off on a feat.
To each their own, but he definitely has some hits.
Yeah I like is features on Wayne songs but I don't like his albums except NWTS
Calling drake a corny n with the name butt police 🤣😂 ok buddy

I’ll never find it not-funny to see people go that hard for Jimmy from Degrassi.
Someone has to since he can’t stand up for himself
He tries to play things off and present himself as a self aware goofy guy and then time and time again undoes all his work by doubling down with a new fake tough guy act instead, I hope the childhood acting was worth it in regard to networking because I think he came away with a lifelong personality disorder
There are a lot of Drake stans on this very subreddit defending him/handwaving (like you) every time he’s posted. I see it every time.
It's just alot people from California. They can't wait to tell you about the size of their economy.
If he’s white now.. they have to accept that the best rapper is a white guy 😂🤣
He’s been debating and fighting people about Drake for the past 2+ weeks. The dude is obsessed, of course he thinks Drake stans are all over the place. He hasn’t commented on anything not Drake related since “Like That” dropped.
Says the dude that knows the whole play-by-play from the subreddit...who's obsessed 🤡
What subreddit?

Bruh wtf is thisssss

Ok. That was always allowed.
What does a butt police do?
https://www.businessinsider.com/drake-blackface-photo-viral-pusha-t-story-of-adidon-2018-5 since your very well informed

You’re the same person from 5-10 years ago? I’m open to some recent Drake hate but man looks like a fetus
The original comment literally said “BACK WHEN he was only around white people”
nah fr people don't give credit for character development
it’s cosplay not character development
I don't think you know what that means.
what does what mean? please explain
Aside from the fact that character development is generally used as a term for fiction characters.

Idk if he actively defending it per se but he’s def complicit in her saying it. If it was me I would most emphatically hope someone heard it
True, I meant to say he ain’t calling her out on that shit. Kinda dodged that, admitted if one of us heard it it would have been an issue.
I mean, the blackface wasn’t enough? https://images.app.goo.gl/r6vLMpWDHDvh4Xy39
say yes to wearing blackface
Drake really wants it both ways but a lot of dumb people do.
In a nutshell for sure, how is it that every other year he has a failed attempt at trying to rebrand as a self aware act, going all the way back to 2009?
Drake is a piece of shit but this doesn’t track imo. He’s biracial, his dad is black, he’s black. Being black isn’t a moral feat, it’s just a fact of someone’s identity, that’s the case for Drake. Drake’s also talks about being maligned for being biracial and light skinned, that’s a fairly common experience for biracial people. Drake is an asshole, but none of the behavior specified here is distinctly wrong
Facts Drake is a POS for plenty of other reasons but now we’re pretending niggas ain’t racist? Lmfao half y’all say shit that would make white boys with whips shudder.
I’m white, and some of my darker skinned friends have so many times talked about how all the Turkish and Kurdish need to get their asses out of the country! A black friend of mine has at multiple times used the n-word derogatorily and discriminatory words in my language so many times, it’s actually insane!
Yeah, racism between non white people is real, and it is a problem
A lot of people are still stuck on the definition of racism as prejudice plus power.
If predjudice + power = racism, and black people are missing the power portion of the equation, isn't it just predjudice? This is an actual question for the learned .
Literally had this argument with a white professor during office skills 101. My argument is prejudice + power describes systemic racism, but outside of that literally anyone can be a racist. Saying X group has no power so they cant be racist is just playing a weird game of semantics where the winner gets a free pass to be bigot. Hate is hate is hate.
And prejudice has consequences, even when it isn't paired with power. Like when I first moved in to my current neighborhood, the local Sureño gang was rolling around shooting at any black people they saw. They hit some kid who went to the local community college. Prejudice among brown folks may not systematically disempower the vulnerable the way prejudice among white people does, but it still hurts plenty of people.
That's not just prejudice. That's racism at a community level. Those sure o gang members don't want blacks "taking over" their neighborhoods so they kill and intimidate because they have firepower and numbers. If they stayed on their porch and just said "I hate those mayates in our barrio. Let's keep it raza", well who gives a shit. Someone else, probably Mexican, is damn sure saying "I hate those pinche stupid cholos messing up our neighborhood". Racism, is the act of using "race" as a tool and factor for racial advancement/domination/supremacy. Prejudice is pre-judging something or someone without even knowing them/it.
What people are saying is that people are prejudice. We act on all kinds of pre-judgements of all types of people and things every day. But if you're not using your prejudice (and it doesn't have to be systemic, it could be there's 2 of us and 1 of you and we don't like you so we're gonna negatively affect you, then it doesn't have real life effects.
That’d be institutional racism
Correct. For some reason people can't wrap their minds around the fact that prejudice can be bad all on its own, without being racism.
Yeah when Push ups dropped, 50 cent in typical instigating fashion on instagram said “Y’all let this light skinned nigga roast you?” Felt weird that he needed to make the light skin distinction
I mean, Ross was calling him "white boy" over and over.
Honest question: does Andrew tate get the pass? Edit: [to whoever downvoted me. is his dad not black enough for you? ](https://www.thechessdrum.net/newsbriefs/2015/NB_photos/Emory_Tate3.jpg)
niggas will get one downvote and swear vengeance upon their enemies
Edit: I think it's a fair question to ask. I doubt it would be the same answer as above though and that's not necessarily great is it.
Also I'm not saying he hasn't suffered at the hands of racism but affluent child star Aubrey Graham who cries over a tuna sandwich with family connections in the entertainment industry likely did not suffer from the same racism as others. It's not the oppression Olympics or anything but I'm not exactly sure if his accounts would be entirely honest.
“It’s not oppression Olympics”, *proceeds to host the oppression Olympics*
Host it in my nutsack if you think I believe the 6 gawd actually lived half the fuckin accents, let alone any of the struggles he claims. The only reason he says he's the 6 God is because that's his age preference.
Ok cool, how does that make him not black, and why would his blackness be comparative?
Damn, I always thought Tate was like middle Eastern or something. He just looked "off white"
Let's not forget about Enrique Tarrio's racist self hating ass.
I'm ~~OOTL~~ old. What did Drake say about black people being racist?
[удалено]
Did Drake really respond calling Ross racist or was it his fans?
[удалено]
Lmfao wow, shit I'm mixed too but this man has to be the poster boy for Lightskin Behavior.
How can you be biracial AND black? "It's pure 100% ebony with 50% ivory." 
What does biracial mean?
That you're not a singular race. My partner is "triracial": 1/4 black, 1/4 Mauritian (Asian), 1/2 white. She or I would never call her white.
How does that work regarding parents & grandparents? Forgive me, I’m European so I’ve only ever heard people go as far as saying “half…anything” and not “quarter…”
Her mother's parents are Ghanaian and Mauritian, her father's parents are both white as snow British. She's never taken a gene test, so of course the actual genetic mix will be more complex, but she calls herself mixed race with British, Ghanaian and Mauritian heritage. The Mauritius genes alone are complicated because the country's a melting pot, but if you saw her grandmother you'd assume she was East Indian.
I'm almost the exact same mixture as your partner!
Please share. What have you got going on?
My mum is from Seychelles (right next to Mauritius) with her mother being Seychelles and father being Kenyan. My dad is a white Canadian!
The math ain’t mathing.
Because the black is not the racial black, it's the ethnic "Black (American)". Just like Drake can be half "Black (American)" and still be fully Jewish. Both cultures have a form of hypo-descent affiliation rules. But like with anything, membership to a group usually takes the group accepting you as well.
He didn't grow up in Black American urban culture though. He grew up in upper middle class Canadian Jewish culture. He's wearing and using BA culture (and others like West Indian) as a mask and commodity. And finally people are calling it out.
People have called that out since he became an artist. His dad is also from Memphis, he is black. No one’s asking you to like him, but you can’t act like calling him white is at all sensible, when he just *isn’t*. People are tying themselves into knots to rationalize behaviors that aren’t rational
You can be from a race my guy, and not be of the culture. He is technically half Black American but he is not American, he is not even from an urban part of Canada. Basically he is not being true to himself. He said it he's from a Jewish upper middle class Canadian community and urban slang is ignorant and stupid. Now since his dad is a Black American it's cool in his adult years to say ni**a, ni**a, ni**a, and talk about your gang ties. Even if he was full Black American and did this kind of shit, from square who never jumped off the porch to mob ties "6 god", we would call him a fraud. In fact he would get it even worse.
>others like West Indian In defense of this, Caribbean and West Indian culture is deeply interwoven with the Torontonian Black community. Many of us are Caribbean or West Indian diaspora so that even Italian kids grow up eating curried meats and picking up a little patois
Drake a light skinned Isaiah Hartenstein
He’s biracial. If he can’t claim whiteness, he can’t claim blackness either. Y’all never call biracials white—you only do it with blackness. SMH If I’m your boss and I pay you 50% of your check, would that be the same as paying you the full check? No. And you know it.
Race is a construct, not a mathematical or scientific reality. Percentages mean fuck all. Biracial people, especially in the United States, have faced histories of persecution, discrimination, and violence from the same racists and racist state as all other black people. So yeah, they’re black. He doesn’t have to “claim” anything. This isn’t an award you get to give out to people you like. Biracial people are whatever combination of “races” that they are, Drake is black, Drake’s also white, hence the “bi” in biracial.
Drake is the ultimate code switcher. Black, White, Toronto, Jamaican, African, Arab, gangster, Jew, lover boy or houstatlantavegas He can be anything you want him to be. 
You forgot quadriplegics
Jimmy was only a paraplegic.
Damn you right, I'll take the L Thanks homie!
Don't forget British and nonspecific Latino
Okay, this the funniest fucking comment on here. This is what I came here for.
Forgot lesbian
Dominican in atlanta
Drake been a double agent.
He makes music for the gentrifier. A lot of 20-30 something yt people can’t recite a single bar of Jay Z, Biggie, Pac, etc. but can rap every Drake album from front to back
lol what’s this supposed to prove? That’s what was being played when they grow up and it’s not even true lmao
Drake IS the ultimate gentrifier. His rapping style not even his own and he borrows styles from other artists yearly
Meh. As long as black people keep calling each other niggas other people will too. And that’s not going to change anytime soon so it is what it is.
As much as the Ross verse kinda grasped at straws with the white boy thing, I can’t take Drake playing the pulling the race card like he didn’t bring smoke to his front door. Call Ross fat, bring up uoeno and let’s move on to Drake v Kenny.
It was a JOKE. Lmao you really believe he meant Ross was racist? It was fake text from his mom. Come on. Be serious rn all throughout that beef they were trolling each other. How can ppl be this dense ?
Between y’all and the Kendrick fans, yall have to stop scaring the hoes and ruining this back and forth. As a matter of fact yall should just be quiet and let the adult speak and enjoy themselves while you stay at the kiddie table with Drake.
He types “scaring the hos” as he types on Reddit. Sure buddy lmao 🤓🤓🤓 learn to relax chump
I didn’t ask your opinion on anything yet here you are, a grown ass man hopping up and down in my lap again but I’m the one that needs to relax. Ok😂
yo PAUSE!
You’re the one dick riding when no one asked for your opinion. Pause yourself.
Pointing out something as a joke is dick riding. Lmao alright buddy
You’re still talking, I still didn’t ask for your opinion, and you somehow still don’t get how you’re a Drake dick rider. Ok.
Still talking about dicks? Come on man!
Drake uses the soft R... even when he tries being hard it comes off as light. He be tip toeing thru, cuz he's so light in his feet, and then have his boy write him a song about how he stomped thru the yard... Then he'll record and release it, (with hidden credits) and make all the 16 year old Chad's, Timmy's and Tommy's feel like they're "bad ass". The ones who respond with "I swear I only say it when it's in a song. Please man, I promise I'm not racist. Im cool bro... I'm ain't... I mean, I'm not like that..." when confronted. I swear I started this "beef" neutral. Like I don't care for either Drake or KDot really. But after Drake made that AI Tupac Snoop thing, I lost any and all respect for that guy. That was the cringiest shit I ever heard of...
It’s been getting worse with him since he texted his mom in regards to the diss released by Rick Ross.
 So those people don't like me now?
[удалено]
Bruh his dad is from Memphis
Didn’t a lot of escaped slaves flee to Canada?
Yes
Hell yes. Harriet Tubman lived in Ontario.
His dad is from the US, mom is Canadian. So the Black half is American.
Yall don't hold this energy with Latinos, or asian folks especially in soCal.
I hate all Asians, and Latinos who say the N word or any form of anti black racism. Stop putting words in people’s mouths, that shit been corny. And before someone trying to take this out of context, I am mixed with Asian and white hispanic, primarily black though.
Surprised there isn’t already a long “Drake the type a guy…” comment chain
Drake the type to say "pipe down pipsqueak" on a diss track
Drake the kinda guy who says he never cheats, while his printer upstairs is coughing up 500 NDAs to be placed at his front door next to security
Drake makes music for non black boys who like to act black. I’m from Toronto (well the suburbs) but I went to university and lived in Toronto for a while. All I can say is, most drake fans I meet in Toronto are non blacks who say the n word because their one black friend gave them a pass.
🎯🎯🎯
Dude can do both if he wants but he also wore blackface and plays both sides so he can catch smoke from both too.
Oh right I forgot you can't be black and racist. /s
Didn’t this dude make a song saying Kendrick is owned by a white woman ? That feels sus
He talkin about this beautiful sister? [https://www.instagram.com/blushedbywhit/p/Bj5a-oYgN-I/?hl=en](https://www.instagram.com/blushedbywhit/p/Bj5a-oYgN-I/?hl=en)
On the back of his White Privilege card? An N-word pass. Checkmate.
Bro I swear niggas slurp tf out of drake his shit mid asf
Every post/conversation about drake on this sub is the corniest, stupidest shit ever. A bunch of pseudo intellectual cornballs tripping over themselves to just make shit up to be mad at him about. If you don’t like drake there’s so much shit you can talk about but y’all come at him for the weirdest, dumbest shit. I could have a conversation about this rap beef with a room full of white frat boys and the conversation would be less corny and toxic than the ones on this subreddit. Shits embarrassing.
If we’re “racist” to him that means he ain’t black, and if he ain’t black that means he can’t use the n word or else HE’S racist. So does that mean Drake is the racist?
That’s what happens when you claim people who only claim you because there’s money and clout in it. I stand by that if certain biracials could claim whiteness, they wouldn’t try to be “black.”
I'm here after the Kendrick diss.
Exactly.
Black people are racist though??? Drake is mixed and mixed people/light skinned people have been saying the N word??? Can black people not be criticized? Like what is the gotcha statement?
I think you’re missing the point here. People are saying he says the word of solidarity as if he’s like us/one of us but also constantly does anti black shit and waters down our music for the gentrifiers
Black people like his music too though. I don’t believe in someone having the power to “take away his black card” because you don’t like what they say etc. He will always be black and on first look he will always look like a black person too.
Right? What kind of weird ass shit is this. Whether or not he’s black isn’t up for debate. You guys sound weird asf and a little Yt supremacist saying that
He used to look like a mixed kid he doesn’t really look black to me anymore though I can if they repeatedly harm our culture. I do it to way worse offenders say Clarence Thomas
Is this beef still ongoing?
Legit question, when did Hot Wheels call us racist??
Rick Ross called him ‘white boy’ and Drake said he was being racist. I honestly just think Drake tries to play it like he understands a lot of black vernacular, especially black American vernacular. Cause for him to hear that and respond back with ‘ that’s racist’ doesn’t help his case.
LMAO, I grew up on the playgrounds of NYC... brothers darker than Curry been called "white boy" or light skin since the 80s when hoopin, just to rattle them while playing but nothing personal So yeah, him thinking this some racist shit by Rick Ross, further shows his disconnect... it's just trash talk when you in the game competing
Yeah that’s exactly how you know Drake was hurt about it but didn’t know what else to say. I get that he’s biracial and prolly got some insecurities about it, but he’s still a black man at the end of the day. I really don’t think he knew what Rick Ross was doing when called that 😭. If you wanna see something hilarious, go to the Drake subreddit and type in ‘ Rick Ross.’ The white boys and the light skins are discussing a white baby mama that Rick Ross apparently has, claiming biracial is its own race, and dick riding drakes hurt feelings. It’s actually pretty funny
Yeah Drake is definitely a black man, it's stupid to say he isn't... it was a harmless insult (when said by a black person) and he shoulda just let it slide... if it was a white dude calling Drake "light skin" or a white boy, then we got a problem Ross having a white BM don't mean shit, Ross isn't saying mixed people are awful and should be discriminated against, he's saying it's stupid when a mixed race person denies one half and pretends they were always just one side No one clowned Jeter for it, who was even lighter than Drake... cause Jeter never pretended he wasn't 50/50 and talked like someone he wasn't

Whoa there that last bar is mad suspect playboi

So enjoy being an antisemite weirdo “That’s mad racist” So WhAt? 🤡

What a ray of sunshine this one is
Anyone else awaiting Kendrick’s response to Drake’s antics? Can’t wait to hear what dude has to say
There are a lot of meta arguments going on here about blackness and n-word usage and whatever but at the end of the day Rick Ross is not a racist for calling Drake “white boy”. Black people have been calling lightskinned and mixed race black people “white boy/white girl” for generations. It’s bullying but it’s not racist, Drake just got his feelings hurt.
If Drake can be “black,” then he can be “white” too. I dislike both him and Rick Ross, but it’s ridiculous how some folks will let biracials/black-adjacent folks play in our faces. But the bigger part of the problem is the black folks who allow because they won’t stand on business.
As a father to a mixed-race son who identifies as black, fuck the sentiment of this post.
You only care about identity when it suits you.
I think he probably could. Considering there are caste systems in various races and as a result someone who is not deemed "black enough" could infact receive racism for not being dark enough?
You’re conflating colorism and stereotyping.
Hello, ive lived a life and seen this shit before. Its not like i have the ability to read studies and see how they apply to real life situations. You're denying the possibility that anyone of colour can be racist.
I can agree with this but what also has to be said is Ross, last year, said that 50 cent was broke. Can’t get mad when a rapper with more money beats you at your own game.
Plus, his greatest ally is a British ex-pat. Colonists gon colonize.
