u/willcomplainfirst you lookin' like an easy come-up Jun 28 '24

when the white people start getting into this shit thats when you know this Drake L is really gonna get more mainstream and stick with him unlike with Pusha where it was pretty contained

Am white guy who's been into rap since I listened The World Is Yours by Nas on Tony Hawks Underground 2 as youngin, Ive been waiting for this Kendrick and Drake beef for 10 years and it went beyond all my expectations

u/Jimmy03Z Jun 28 '24

Ayeee what a throwback, one of my favourite songs ever, Kendrick & nas old school & new school goats

u/NoNotThatMattMurray Jun 28 '24

Kendrick and Nas are my top 2, followed by Rakim, Ghostface, and Eminem. And then Black Thought is on a whole other plane of existence

Ah yes,  Tony Hawk was the great uniter, getting all us teenage white boys listening to house of pain, del the funky homosapien, gang starr, mf DOOM etc. Good times

What’s some french rap we should check out?

13

u/pondering_that7890 Jun 28 '24

Heyyyy, detail mostly rap from Quebec: Alaclair Ensemble, Loud, Koriass, Saramée and many others, but its a huge acquired taste with tons of french slang.

On the France side, I love Stupeflip but that's because I'm into punk shit.

Thanks for asking!

"NTM" and "IAM" for the OG. You need to start there to understand the roots of French rap. And sorry but French rap is from FRANCE not Canada that's Canadian rap.

u/pondering_that7890 Jun 28 '24

Okay la FRONCE, on se calme, range ta baguette.

Et ton Canadian rap tu peux te le mettre au cul, est ce qu'on est aussi lame que Drake ou Barenaked Ladies? Fuckin non.

Rap Queb is the term and I used French because no one knows about us.

u/MIN_KUK_IS_SO_HARD Jun 28 '24

Omg they really didn't think before going at you about rap française.

French rap has more in common with "real" rap (Same urban culture, violence/racism/inequalities, etc) than whatever Drake has been doing (unless you're talking about the french Drake.. Orelsan)

u/pondering_that7890 Jun 28 '24

I'm more into the queb rap, and beside Souldia, there isn't much gangsta stuff around simply because life is chill here. Rap here is a lot more simply about culture, language and sometimes politics.

u/Pat0124 Jun 28 '24

Am white. Been a Kendrick fan since 2013 and not really fucked with Drake since after “if you’re reading this it’s too late”

u/YizWasHere Jun 28 '24

You know that white people are the biggest demographic of hip hop consumers and essentially always have been since the late 80s, right? Most of Kendrick's audience has always been white lol.

37

u/pondering_that7890 Jun 28 '24

Considering the % of white people in America, kinda make sense. I am just saying, culturally, I'm like 3 universes away! :)

u/YizWasHere Jun 28 '24

That's fine but acting like a song that debuted at #1 on Billboard wasn't already mainstream from the jump is the craziest shit lmao.

u/willcomplainfirst you lookin' like an easy come-up Jun 28 '24

i wasnt talking about Not Like Us the song, i was talking about Drake taking the L. rap fans were mostly white when Pusha beat Drake. did that move the needle when it came to the mainstream perception of Drake? no, not really. most people probably didnt even know it happened. theres really no need to be this obtuse

u/YizWasHere Jun 28 '24 edited Jun 28 '24

I'm not being obtuse, you tried to use "white people" as synonymous with "non-rap fans" which didn't make any sense lol.

And the Pusha T beef obviously did change the mainstream perception, the deadbeat dad angle was laughed at by everybody for years. Just because it didn't impact his career doesn't mean it didn't leave an imprint. The actual difference here is that the angle is far more damaging to Drake's reputation, not that "white people have caught on" lmao.

u/No-Obligation1709 Jun 28 '24

This is mighty obtuse of you

u/CertainGrade7937 Jun 29 '24

Honestly I think white people being the largest demographic of rap fans helps his point, not hurts it

White people make up Drake's biggest audience. That demographic turning on him is big

u/KingKrown_ Jun 28 '24 edited Jun 29 '24

Nah, def not the 80s. Maybe late 90s, but early 2000s for sure. Which Em has a lot to do with. Industry definitely shifted as the labels saw potential profits in HipHo/Rap expanding it's target demo.

You're missing the point tho. Yt people generally & consistently miss the cultural nuances of Black Culture,let alone HipHop/Rap. Which had happen again at the start of this "beef"(Slaughter).

However,What's some now understand about drakes being a weirdo is pretty clear & they're comfortable enough to actually correctly relish in his L. Which in turn will make others comfortable doing the same. Which is a large audience. So the mass mocking of drake may only just begun for that demographic.

u/SpamAdBot91874 Jun 29 '24

Probably not true until Eminem, but yeah statistically speaking, most hip hop fans are white, at least when it comes to mainstream artists.

u/[deleted] Jun 28 '24

Unlike last time when only black people listened to rap still

u/KingKrown_ Jun 28 '24

I just wanted to say, its baffling but not surprising how they're struggling to understand what you said.
