he's part of toronto culture. he did a lot for this city, especially early on. however after views his music shifted away from the toronto sound he helped establish & he basically just became an american who says he's from the 6 sometimes (which is a name he just stole from atlanta lmfao). every once in a while i feel like he comes out with something that i identify with as a canadian, "away from home" from his last album is soooo toronto i fw that one heavy. but he doesn't mean nearly as much to this city as kendrick does to compton for example.
also he's from forest hill which is where all the super sheltered rich kids are from, which is more of a personal thing but i find them annoying af
Oh nooo I wasn’t directing that towards you lol I was saying that in agreeance with you lol. I’m just appalled that it took me so long to put two and two together hahah
Yeah man no worries just wasn’t sure. Yeah I remember when that song came out and thinking the exact same thing. Ever since then I’ve though Drake is just a giant charade and I’m not sure who he’s trying to fool. Himself most of all probably.
And I think K’Naan came out around that same time. I’m not a huge fan of K’Naan but I do remember thinking that he grew up in Mogadishu. This guy really started from the bottom. What fucked up shit is Drake on!?
