Could this permeation of feminist issues within a rap feud be evidence of a shift beginning within hip hop, moving away from its associations with chauvinism and machismo and towards a more progressive and socially conscious focus? 
Or could it be a pissing contest between two performers in a genre that is what it is? Not everything in life has to be seen through a political lens.

This whole schtick grants them far too much agency. So f***ing what if one of them read out a “statement” at Glastonbury? It’s laughable. Performers (that’s all they are) of a different colour wouldn’t even make it on stage with the same attitudes.

Buju Banton, another black ‘musician’ was indulged in his sick homophobic lyrics by the usual trendy white luvvies in a way unimaginable if a white person had said anything about ‘dem Blacks ‘. The usual laughable double standards.

Aba n Preach have a good go at disecting the paedophilic “coincidences” of Drake’s fangirls admiting that he hit them up while underage.

Becoming cringe and soft would kill rap and save the lives of thousands of young men in ghettos across the west. In that light I pray that this trend continues.

There is a British Grime artists that’s raps he’s “had more girls than R Kelly” which is mind boggling as far as bragging rights go. Who wants to out themselves as a bigger paedo than R Kelly!

I like that this Drake guy is post-racial like the Rock. I regard this as the height of cultural aesthetics today.
Otherwise, he is rather podgy and resembles that TV magician David Blaine who is far from accidentally a friend to him. Both are probably post-Democrat too, but not Mr Lamarr who is another sad throwback to 60s US radicalism in the racial separatist mould.

Calling a mixed race person the “HEIGHT of cultural anesthetics” is just a tad racist.

There is no such thing as “post racial”. Drake is a mixed raced performer in a predominantly Black genre.
A tradition as old as America herself.

This read like a ‘sewer’ a ‘cesspit’. A reflection of the worst in black American culture. It’s very sad.
