Remember when J. Prince said Drake’s response to Pusha T would “destroy families”? And we never heard it. Stay cautiously skeptical 😂

This is why Candace Owens did hip-hop platforms that wouldn’t fact check what she says. She speaks with authority and anyone without knowledge can get easily intimidated. The minute actual data is brought up, she hides

Tupac’s estate has hit Drake with a cease and desist for using his voice on “Taylor Made”. He has 24 hours to take it down. “…a blatant abuse of the legacy of one of the greatest hip-hop artists of all time. The Estate would never have given its approval for this use.”

I’m pretty sure Kendrick was referencing DMX not liking Drake…but I’m not surprised Drake would think it’s a Julia Stiles reference 😑

God bless Megan Thee Stallion. The way men in hip-hop keep failing her and she continues to stay focused is truly amazing

“Euphoria” is great rapping. It’s not exposing Drake for anything we didn’t already know (Pusha already did that). It’s not trolling (like using 2Pac AI). It’s taking facts and putting it on wax for 6 min and 24 seconds. The end.
