Drake was much more authentic here. People could clown him for being soft or uncool or whatever but at least he was being real to himself, not the fake tough guy mafia don he pretends to be now
THAT’S WHY I’M VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH DRAKE FOR THAT CAUSE THIS DRAKE FROM 2009-2010 IS THE ONE I GREW UP WITH CAUSE I LIKED HIS MUSIC AND HOW HE USED TO BE HIMSELF BUT NOWADAYS I LOST EVERY SINGLE PIECE OF RESPECT I HAD FOR DRAKE.
He really wants to be connected to his fathers black side more so he does more hip hop act tough sneak diss and it doesn’t suit him knowing where he grew up wasn’t dangerous like other black artists in Atlanta, LA Ect
@@deadboylife17BUT ON THE NEGATIVE WAY. DRAKE HASN’T STAYED TRUE TO HIMSELF FROM A VERY LONG TIME. HE HAS LET THE MONEY AND FAME TO MAKE HIM THINK HE IS SOME KIND OF TOUGH GUY AND GANGSTA.
Well college drop out or nah.. you can always go back to school.. and life teaches valuable lessons too go with it..(educated fool)..yep some people are...all that education and don't know squat!!..
Man I can understand him, for me it's exactly the same. Most artists are different and outsiders at their high school, people just don't understand the way you are most of the time!
It's cuz he was half black in a primarily Jewish school so I'm sure he never fit in with the all jewish crew and now he can't fit in with the black crew lol. You should've listened to wayne and stayed Canadian Drake lol
Jewish people are middle eastern and even Ashkenazi Jewish (like drake) have more DNA in common with middle eastern Jews and less DNA in common with Europeans. Most Jews in Israel of middle eastern and North African ancestry (abt 60%) Also some Nigerians in America might have ancient Hebrew ancestry and due to the slave trade they don't know about it. So Drake's dad could also have some Jewish ancestry
Angelique Hoeberigs if you will met Israeli jews you will see thet most of them look middle eastrn\Arab!!!! because most jews in Israel are spardic Jews =jews from ARAB contris
This verse is also from a time where being rich was extremely rare and impossible to create on your own. Your in no position to judge when you yourself are taking verses out of context.
@@tornadocrossfire544 your right but to add to that..He was a byproduct of his environment as all people are a byproduct of the environment they are from. He did good and bad things just like most people. He made music for the people that society casted away. The rest of the world just were allowed to listen to it.
I love Drake .. not just for his music but the fact that behind all that YMCMB he is soo intelligent and a good person .. he has a good heart .. and he's super sexy :) ! And the dude can rap !! Ahh I love you Drake!!!!!!!!!!!
Peopele want to say what others can do...crab mentality is a thing especially with black Americans...as a kenyan..the recent drake and dot beef just shows how black american culture is founded on PTSD rather than love.
For those of you who don't know ...Forest hill where drake grew up is one of the richest neighbourhoods in North america. I have no idea if Drake grew up with money or not, there is a section of that area that does have apartments and is just kinda expensive. His highschool forest hill CI is a snooty public school where a lot of VERY wealthy go . there is virtually ZERO crime there and maybe on murder every 4-5 years. Toronto is already safe , his particular " HOOD " is THE SAFEST in TORONTO.
I like how he talks, he's not educated, he dropped out, but you couldn't tell. 50 Cent talks good, Diddy talks good, Jay Z talks good, there are a lot of rappers who enunciate their words and talk well, well, the businessmen at least. I just adore Drake b/c of the way he talks, race doesn't matter, it's 2011, who cares about that. There are white rappers in hip-hop butchering English but no one's saying a thing, who cares
It’s so cool learning about his Judaism. Many don’t know that Jewish is an African language, Afroasiatic, and that Jewish Africans were stolen from their homeland and forced to worship Christianity in American slavery. I can relate to Drake feeling like an outsider because I look “white, straight and Christian” yet am gay, Jewish and .1% indigenous Egyptian, aka Coptic Pharaoh. Likely frok when Jews were slaves in Egypt. I wonder if he speaks French. He had a bar mitzvah, I did not. He said in another interview that Toronto is mosaic so he fit in, mosaic is a very Jewish word Some may call me a gay jewish black rapper yet I am praying here, not rapping or singing. m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6ec010Edumw.html Bless everyone. We are all one-Judaism is about oneness so don’t believe the chosen people nonsense-all people are Jewish spiritually whether or not ethnically or whether they don’t believe in God. Bless all m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6ec010Edumw.html Thank you
People who talk like you are the reason ppl like Drake DID have a hard time growing up, & when they make it they NEVER wanna come back to their hometowns; cause of nosy, ill-informed ppl like you! Money doesn't make you happy if your neighbors, classmates, co-workers talk to you like shhh, just cause you look or act differently from them. It's best to just MIND OUR BUSINESS cause EVERYONE has problems & doesn't need anyone judging them. *Jesus Saves*
And of course the interview is broken up into 50 000 pieces so they can put an ad on each one instead of just one ad!! The things people do for money...
This tends to be true, all the kids that are not cool or outsiders in highschool tend to become rich and famous?? drake, lil wayne, eminem and many others, all three where picked on and considered outsiders in highschool, i wonder what those students think about them now.
I get pissed off when people get mad b/c drake is well spoken. I mean he sounds smart and intellgent... he dont have to keep saying "u kno what im saying, nigga this and that". I love how he talks ...its so fucking sexy man
@@tornadocrossfire544 I agree and the person we're commenting under is a perfect example of what you commented. All the fan bases of the people that teamed together to form that hood avengers of you will meaning Metro, future, weeknd and so on.... all come to Drake vids, shorts, edits even old vids like this to clown giving Drake more attention than kdot when he won so hilarious to me.
So as it turns out drake wasn't made of money growing up .. but comparing most people to those that go to forest hill would be considered BROKE ... it would be like comparing a middle class normal person vs beverly hills or orange county type brats .... Poor drake .. he didn't get a BMW and only living off TV revenue from his show must have been really tough ... in a crime free area , clean city, free healthcare .. school and all the opportunities of the world in Toronto .. Tough life kid .
