Drake is still a loser even after he won... 

Fantano telling everyone Drake sent him a vegan cookie recipe out of friendliness only for Drake to immediately reveal "nuh-uh! I actually sent you a bunch of insulting and disparaging texts because your reviews bother me so much!" is still one of the most pathetically insecure things a musician of his stature has ever done.

Drake acts like a 40 year old alumni who goes to their old college bar and gets mad the girls aren’t “marriage material”.

Who here after KDot fried this dork again?

Drake is a Canadian actor who is cosplaying a black American rapper.

It’s truly impressive that someone can make less mature music at 37 than they did at 25

Its like a rich dude that got rich to prove someone from his HS wrong, but that person is happy with a family, while the rich dude is still miserable

Drake is one of the world's oldest teenagers

Drake is in the top 1% of everything, money, fame, access to beautiful women etc and yet he remains the most petty, vindictive, bitter and resentful dude in the game. It's really incredible.

Drake threatening bodily harm and gang violence to anyone bringing up the groomer narrative is genuinely hilarious cause like . . . it's Drake. Nobody is afraid of Drake. I'm no drake-ologist but bro looks like the most dangerous crime he's capable of is farting in a dressing room at jcpenny

I feel like Drake and Taylor Swift weirdly have some of the same problems. They both spent so long as the underdog and butt of the joke but now that they’re at the top of the power structure they still haven’t lost that defensive victim mentality that now causes them to act like bullies. I think you could also argue Nicki Minaj has gone through that to some extent too.

This video aged well

Who here after kdot cooked his ass

Drake is basically Taylor Swift for guys Update: Taylor Swift is not a groomer

Someone on another drake video said “Drake is the Tyler Perry of rap. He is not going to evolve because his formula is too successful” and I have never seen a comparison so true

The way he he acted after being called out for stealing from XXXTENTACION was a great example of how insecure and immature he is. Who disses a dead man multiple time just because he mad he was called out for stealing from him 💀

Back to watch this after “Meet the Grahams” dropped.

Drake has 2 modes. Fake tough guy and the “good guy” who has to tell you he’s the good guy.

"You are hiding a child" was one of many major turning points

even the RU-vid algorithm is dunking on Drake lmao

As a Canadian the out of nowhere success of this guy was bewildering he wasn’t part of the scene here he didn’t pay his dues in his city or country he used his TV celebrity platform to promote himself which everyone could tell wasn’t authentic and not based on talent but on pure marketing.. he tries desperately to check all the boxes even when it makes no sense he tries to be not scary and accessible to the mall type crowd, but at the same time act hard and make fake gangster references to a fake gangster lifestyle he never had.. me like many others up north thought he would be a flash in the pan and gone as soon as he arrived, but equally as bewildering, he seems to have longevity for no apparent reason.. there are so many more talented people up north that could lyrically run circles around him, but will never reach his level of success for reasons the true hip hop generation will never understand

The Boondocks needs to come back to have a Drake episode so it can be appreciated 10 years later.

It's really hard for someone who spent most of their life as the underdog to transition your mindset away from those feelings of disenfranchisement once you've moved up and out of it. Drake isn't the underdog anymore, but he hasn't done the work to make peace with his past so he's still stuck in angry nerd mode. Honestly, one of the things he's probably feeling is paranoia and confusion wondering why he still doesn't have the things that he truly wants.

Bruh this is SIX MONTHS OLD AND ITS PREVELAINT.

This aged like fine wine 🍷

He’s Jay Gatsby. Amassed a fortune in the hopes it would give him what he didn’t have, what it could never give him.

Drake is so corny man, bro is beefing with Rihanna and Rocky when they are NOT thinking about him. Like bro how sad can you be?

I don’t think someone as self serving as Drake will ever go to therapy. That’s a difference between him and Kendrick. I heard a story about Kendrick being empathetic towards someone working for him, we’re always hearing the opposite stories about Drake. I’m not saying Kendrick is perfect, I’m just saying he cares about the people around him instead of expecting others to respect him without showing any respect in return like Drake.

He is getting verbally folded by Kendrick now

Drake is insecure and it bleeds through everything he does.

This is literally how i have always felt about drake. Drake just gives overcompensation on so many levels

Drake is the biggest Culture Vulture that hip hop has ever seen.

Kendrick must’ve watched this vid lol

I still maintain to this day: The worst thing that ever happened to Drake is that nothing happened after Pusha T demolished him in their beef. Because it showed that no matter what Drake does-nothing matters. Why improve when you can just churn out the same shit year after year, and your fanbase will call it fire?

Hit the nail on the head. I’ve always said Drake is the result of a person who was Lame in high school finally getting everything he fantasized about to show off to those who doubted him. Spot on.

and 6 months later....

Drake has already hit his peak. There will no longer be a future album that will turn into a classic album, He’s also pushing 40 so he’s most likely at his beginning stage of A Mid life crisis with the fact that the HipHop culture is changing, along with his fans, but he’s still see’s life like he’s still 25.

It's crazy to me how long someone can refuse to evolve as a person, and even arguably regress. Because, at least way back when he could PRETEND to be interesting and in touch with his feelings, but the guy just offers nothing about his personality aside from how immature he is.

Drake needs reconcile his many identities.. the bi racial Canadian, the dork, the pop rapper who is capable of more. He needs to decide who he is, do some internal work, and be content with himself. A man who chase multiple identities is in search of his own…

I remember reading in my teen beat magazine that jimmy from degrassi was going to be the next big thing in hip hop and I was like “haha these magazines really do be making up the most random things”….

The video has aged like fine wine

Fiq: Drake is a dork and his music is corny Drake Fans: You just dont get it. He used to be a Certified Lover Boy but Honestly Nevermind because That's Her Loss. Now this is For All The Dogs.

Had me at "Drake is Still a Loser"

video aged like fine wine

Video is aging better by the day

Bro as a certified drake hater it’s nice seeing an articulated version of the shittalk I engage in

Drake is so corny. It’s like he’s permanently stuck as the little boy who never got the girl or always got bullied and but because he has money, he feels the need to constantly prove himself to the people that made fun of him 20 years ago.

"The corn recognize corn": level of self awareness and self acceptance is admirable.

Watching this in 2024, post euphoria is crazy

Drake now makes bitter sugar daddy music

It's wild to think his whole career has just been a distraction from his chronic insecurity. Makes sense tho. A lot of sense.

This was recommended after the kendrick beef.

What is it with Drake and slave bars? Read the room my guy.

“I remember you was conflicted Misusing your influence Sometimes I did the same…”

Drake is the epitome of the “Nice Guy” trope. He’s incredibly immature

Excellent analysis. Really articulates a deeper cultural problem I find with some men in my age group. As an adult, I had to cut off a childhood friend with very Drake-like behavior. We were entering our late 20s and early 30s and he was still struggling with that “I gotta glow up I gotta prove everyone wrong” mentality. The final straw was when he crossed serious boundaries with me as I was engaged with my now husband. And then I was the villain in his story when I called out the disrespect and severed the friendship, just like Rihanna and other exes are the villains in Drakes story.

This wasn't just a video about Drake, this was a PSA.

I was bullied pretty heavily when I was a kid, and even though it mellowed out during high school I stayed isolated for a long time. I was very lonely. A large part of my life was spent wondering (privately but desperately) what it was that made me such an easy target. I'll probably never really know the answer to that, whether it was something intrinsic to me as a child or whether it was just a question of circumstances, but I was always trying to do something to my behaviour so that I could fit in, even though it usually just made me more awkward and gave me pretty heavy anxiety. I never learnt to just exist, because it was pretty clear that there was something about me that my peers did not like. At least, that's what it felt like. I don't know what happened during the course of my twenties--probably a number of things, including a) being rewarded heavily in university for stuff that, it turned out, I was really good at, and b) falling really ill. Just when I was starting to encounter success and shed my social outcast stain, I lost nearly everything; I had to drop out of school, became very isolated again as a result of forced bedrest, and had to come to terms with the barest bones of what made my life worth living, because (not to be morbid, but) a lot of it up till that point had not necessarily been worth it, and the amount of energy I needed at that moment just to stay alive felt insurmountable. But I did want to live, and so I fought for it, and when I emerge on the other side to start rebuilding from scratch, I had fuller, deeper knowledge of what I wanted for myself, who I wanted to be. I guess this all pares down to the ole "love yourself" adage, but in my case that reckoning with social trauma was forced by anther, much more dire trauma. I don't like a lot of who I was before I was ill, and I didn't like it then either. I was mean and bitter and confused. I'm still confused, because everyone is, but I'm a lot more comfortable in that confusion. A lot of my fight for my health was also about a fight for my dignity (the medical apparatus is Not Fun when you're female). Now that I've fought and won that fight, I know what I've survived, and that self-assurance, above all else, is what allows me to now recognize and confront bullies, but also preserve my own sense of empathy and kindness. I don't know if I'd have untangled myself from the knot of all that trauma if I hadn't almost died. I'll never know. Welp this was a novel.

The surviving drake special is only a matter of time

This aged very well

DOT Money, Power ,Respect the last one is better.

I needed this video for myself . Was In a bit of an underdog situation but I triumphed and now I don’t know how to celebrate myself . The people that hate me are my family . So there’s that but it’s time to let that hurt go and just be great . Thanks my guy !

This is why I cant stand Drake. Each year he grows older but still talks about the same stuff and has thin skin to go with it. He's got the money and time to grow up

Drake is a pop star trying to run with rappers.

My youtube filled with people critiquing drake🤣🤣 and i'm watching every single one of them!😂😂

FD never went on a Drake and Drive

I think the worst part about Drake is that he doesn’t seem to move forward in his life. After having a kid being exposed as his, about to hit 40, and being one of the most successful rappers without the endorsement of the game (fellow rappers, OGs, and fans), he still raps like a 20 year old nerd that thinks he’s being cool. He’s rapping about the women he slept with and complaining that it’s a problem when he doesn’t seem to wanna look in the mirror. Dropping random female names saying he jams them in his phone like sardines is something I’d expect from a bachelor in his 20s. Not a grown man with a kid. Also side note, it’s worth mentioning that he constantly talks about being promiscuous while trying to act like a good dad (making songs about his son and messages to him and putting his drawing as an album cover).

Bro, I don't know what it took forever to find this channel but I 100% agree with the last few I've seen.

I'm from Brasil, and I always thought drake was a pop singer... I had nothing against him until the day he came to Brasil and said he wouldn't drink our water??? Wth dude

"Corn recognize Corn",.....love it! That's just one reason I greatly appreciate and very much enjoy your videos. You're awesome. Thank-you for doing the work to process through and from your own trauma. For also promoting and inspiring others to do the same, it truly makes ALL the difference in a person's life and the world around them.

Not only was Drake the type of guy to go to a Budden concert, he WAS that guy. There's a video of young Drake outside a Budden show in NYC where he's telling Joe how much he appreciates Joe 😂

i feel the exact way about nicki minaj, nobody is taking away from her what it took to be her .. but all this back and forth and clownery doesnt feel like she knows who / where she is

Bro broke down the successful nerd archetype.

Imagine if Drake actually tapped in and made songs centered around what he thought was best for him/struggling with facing his past. Win-Win.

It's crazy how Drake is the embodiment of pop superficiality, and yet so many people identify with him. lil bit terrifying tbh

I always come back to this video. It’s relieving to know that people think critically about music. Thank you for keeping it real. I hope that one day (soon) people will open their eyes and see the truth of who Drake really is. He’s a literal fraud.

Your videos are valuable

He’s now generating playlist; this felt more like a “Now that’s what I call Drake” album which at this point, it’s fine, it’s clear it’s not for me. It’s just odd for the first time seeing the one “on top” being so lazy with all that power

Finally someone who is old enough to remember and truly is a fan of hip hop telling the TRUTH on this farace of a roll out.

Watching this for the first time after the rap battle he lost, this video hits SO much harder 😭

Here after Kendrick bodied him

The thing about this is that Drake has kinda always been this dude. I can remember a time where real hip hop heads were pointing out the inauthenticity in his music from the jump, adapting the sounds and slang of Houston and trying as hard as he could to cover up the Aubrey in him. It's just even more glaring the more he ages, and there are people who can relate to that insecurity in yourself and fantasize about doing what he has done with that mentality.

I will say this every time I get an opportunity to say it: Drake is not even the most culturally significant musician in his own family.

Drake reminds me of a cop that was bullied in highschool

Fast forward half a year later and the man got his N-word pass revoked.

I’m 25…I was 11 when “Over” came out (what I call the beginning) Since I was 19, he’s just been complaining about his ex’s

That's because it all actually might be about his dad. He may have been looking for the acceptance of Black men/Black masculinity (as he idealises it) and ultimately ended up winning Hip Hop as a type of consolation prize. It was never about any of this. The Black Hip Hop community maybe never really took to him despite his success. As a person who also grew up without a parent (my mom) looking for that acceptance shows up in very interesting places. I also hope he processes with a good therapist. I actually became a therapist who specialises in the "mother wound" and other manifestations of childhood trauma. And I hope he comes back to share the healing and encourages the Hip Hop community to invest in their mental health - like Kendrick!

@2:45 "Except when he colonizes a whole genre "

Haven’t been able to stomach a Drake album since I graduated high school. It’s amazing how he’s regressed in maturity & as someone who’s grown older.. it’s embarrassing to watch him in a global scale & it sucks to se show much influence he has on the youth especially when he shoves toxic masculinity down everyone’s throats

Drake gotta be the most passive-aggressive man working in the entertainment industry right now.

it’s hard for me to feel bad that he doesn’t get the hip-hop cred he so desperately craves, because he doesn’t make any effort to get it. if he dropped an album with 12 8am in Charlotte caliber songs it would probably be hailed as a classic. but he insists on dropping the same bloated mess of stale r&b/trap fusion and whatever the flavor of the month sound is (rage beats on this album, NO bounce on scorpion, gentrified dancehall on views) EVERY TIME. i appreciate honestly nevermind more than most people because he at least stuck to a single sound for the whole thing

drake is an actor pretending to be a rapper but he’s really mastered the character and enjoys the role. he also chooses a new facade every season based on whatever culture is trendy

Drake using the artists signed to OVO as his personal hitmakers without promoting their solo projects needs to be reexamined

Drake has always been a studio gangsta who is one person who raps a lot of other peoples lives. He's went from a good guy old tiger woods type to a full on misogynoir advvocate.

That title bruh😭😭😭

Just realised I only liked Drake when he was with Weezy and Nicki.. Scorpion tried but nothing ever really hit since

This video gonna pop off even more now

Drake slowly unraveling into exactly what people trolled him for being in the 2010s ...

Drake is a 'nice guy' and all that entails 😕🙄

thanks for these videos, they're teaching me a lot about Recent Events

I remember seeing Drake on Degrassi back in 2005. He was the token “black” kid. Then in 2010, I came home and my older brother showed me a music video from his debut album. He blew up. We were shocked and excited. People now say, “I could never imagine Drake as Jimmy Brooks”, and are shocked he came from there. We still say, “Wow, I remember him from Degrassi”. We remember his past. Honestly… I feel like he was good when he came out, and good in 2015/2016. Then it went downhill. He started throwing out trash to make money. The guy always sucked personality wise when you could see his personality. He has no identity. He just sucks in whatever he can be accepted into.
