I just generally don't judge celebrities like that unless they do something that warrants.I don’t really listen to Drake’s music and I can’t discount what he’s saying but I think it’s cultural more than racial. I would guess that people see him as a Canadian nigga and so that rejection he is feeling is cats not accepting him as Black American. I may be wrong because I don’t listen to his music or follow him. But I never see him as yo that’s a Black man I just see him as Drake.
Same, but I've liked him since 🎶SUCCESSFUL🎶 There isn't one song that I don't like.I don’t really listen to Drake’s music and I can’t discount what he’s saying but I think it’s cultural more than racial.

Also, Black people with purpose don't just be going out purchasing airplanes & thangs, all willy nilly either.I don’t really listen to Drake’s music and I can’t discount what he’s saying but I think it’s cultural more than racial.

He is, his Mom is white.Honestly thought bro was mixed race, his skin is really light
I'm Half-White too and you just spoke my life. My dad is Black and he always told me that I was Black and to be proud of it because the other side would never see me as White. It ended up truer than I was ready to accept and around 16 I fully accepted that I was Black and that's how my White side saw me. I had about a 2 year span where I hated my Black side because they would talk shit but I was really just angry that my White side all but rejected me. Once I hit 8th grade and started learning how to roast I felt fully accepted by my Black side. At that point I stopped being "beige nigga" to "nigga" over a summer break.As someone who is mixed, I kind of understand where Drake is coming from but when it comes down to a lot of mixed Black people and their insecurities about what race they 'belong to' they always seem to find a way to shit on their Black side instead of attacking their actual white oppressors for small, petty, emotional reasons. That's what the Dominant Society does, they want to keep promoting the divide and conquer and make sure that they aren't seen as the cause of the problem and sadly, a lot of mixed Black people end up falling for it constantly.
I like to think of this phenomenon as it being the circumstances of time, Back then, the one drop rule was heavily forced on Black people in the Americas, and it made mixed race individuals Black racially even if they we're mixed, but now, the one drop rule is losing it's steam like it used to have, and people are noticing mixed people as being mixed, no matter if they had one Black parent.Case in point. Frederick Douglas and Bob Marley both had white fathers. No one has ever, ever referred to them as anything but Black. Even white people.
....and no one, no White person or Black person, has asked why don't we change history books to call Frederick Douglas biracial either. Why not? Ask yourself.
Our female Ancestors were raped by slave owners & their so called "SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY" associates!Case in point. Frederick Douglas and Bob Marley both had white fathers. No one has ever, ever referred to them as anything but Black. Even white people.
....and no one, no White person or Black person, has asked why don't we change history books to call Frederick Douglas biracial either. Why not? Ask yourself.
Half black and half white can't claim white. White people won't allow it. The only way is if they don't know and can't tell.Our female Ancestors were raped by slave owners & their so called "SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY" associates!
Our male Ancestors were beaten, castrated & killed by them also. The wives of the slave owners forced male slaves to sexually accommodate them & still cried rape, when they were caught in the act!
Sure, we all may have their tainted blood in us, but it's basically what side you claim, how you move & what you do!
🎶I'M BLACK & I'M PROUD🎶, period! ✊🏽🤴🏾👸🏽✊🏽
Same with Andrew Tate. He didn’t start talking about his Black father until he got kicked off social media.Half black and half white can't claim white. White people won't allow it. The only way is if they don't know and can't tell.
Case in point:
The actor from Prison Break, the drummer Slash, and a few others who pass. No one knew they were Black on the rise up.
Technically ALL of us are mixed. Any DNA / Ancestry test will show we all have European blood. It's just a matter of how much.I like to think of this phenomenon as it being the circumstances of time, Back then, the one drop rule was heavily forced on Black people in the Americas, and it made mixed race individuals Black racially even if they we're mixed, but now, the one drop rule is losing it's steam like it used to have, and people are noticing mixed people as being mixed, no matter if they had one Black parent.
Fredrick Douglas and Bob Marley is considered Black because It was a different time back then, and now we have different problems and circumstances, and Black peoples thoughts are evolving. Noticing mixed people as being mixed isn't even a bad thing either, I mean are they not? that would be lying
That's that 💩I don't like! Don't be Black when it's convenient, be 💯%, period! Or else you'll suffer the same or worse fate as these Anti-Blacks, KKKOONS & WS!Same with Andrew Tate. He didn’t start talking about his Black father until he got kicked off social media.
What history of fighting for black people does Drake have??Drake is Black.had he grown up in Harlem, Compton, Englewood (Chicago), people wouldn't question it.
We aren't sure Shawn King is Black and he's accepted as Black because of his history of fighting for Black people.
He was also talking about that America isn't as racist as other places bullsh*t.Same with Andrew Tate. He didn’t start talking about his Black father until he got kicked off social media.
No we are not all mixed, admixture doesn't make someone mixed race. That's like saying a person that's 90 percent white and has some asian dna from admixture way down the line is mixed race, but like you had said, it's all the matter on how much of the percentage of each parts of your dna you have.Technically ALL of us are mixed. Any DNA / Ancestry test will show we all have European blood. It's just a matter of how much.
None. But Larry Elder has zero history of fighting for black people. He isn't black?What history of fighting for black people does Drake have??
The point is we all have white blood. I've yet to find any black person I know who has had an ancestry test that didn't have white blood.No we are not all mixed, admixture doesn't make someone mixed race. That's like saying a person that's 90 percent white and has some asian dna from admixture way down the line is mixed race, but like you had said, it's all the matter on how much of the percentage of each parts of your dna you have.
A few quotes from the clip:
"I've been told by people i look up to that i can't identify and i don't belong"
"Sometimes some of my blackest friends can be just as cruel on the other end by making you feel excluded"
"I don't feel celebrated as a black artist . I dont feel like someone says wow a black artist is the artist of the decade... and i associate myself as a black man"

There's more of them, than there are of us. Anti-Blacks, bootlicks, buck dancers, KKKOONS & WS!None. But Larry Elder has zero history of fighting for black people. He isn't black?
You mentioned that Shaun King is accepted being that he is mixed allegedly so how did this become about Larry Elder?? The discussion is about Drake again he is NOT black..None. But Larry Elder has zero history of fighting for black people. He isn't black?
I just generally don't judge celebrities like that unless they do something that warrants.
Maybe the OGs see something in him that's not genuine. His mom is the J folks I heard. He is Black by conversion. Yeah, he makes some good hits, is featured, and gets good features, but there is something about Drake that ain't right and I can't put my finger on it. He cries too much about being accepted, a problem many fair-skinned biracial kids with white moms who can't pass complain about as adults. Don't blame us for not fitting in, he should blame his parents. If you didn't grow up Black, it's hard to not be seen as other when you're around us. These folks always do or say something that lets you know that white side was ruling and they aren't accepted by the pilgrims so here they come later in life trying to be grafted in.
What has culture vulture Arab DJ Khaled done for the Black community?Black people (specifically in America) are the most accepting people of any ethnic or racial group in America.
Drake has always been accepted as black by black music fans. I've never, ever heard him referred to as biracial by black people, even though he's not only half white, but half Jewish and from a white area in Canada. Canada!
His friends are effing with him to some extent. If you are down, eff with us heavy, you get pretty much full access to the black community:
* DJ Khaled
* Fat Joe till recently. He drops n bombs in all his songs. The whole FBA movement has shifted this paradigm.
* MC Serch from that old school rap group 3rd Base
....and many others. None of them got a drop of black blood (unless we wanna get technical about Arabs and Puerto Ricans but for purposes of this thread lets say no)
but at one time or currently accepted as one of our own.
No other group in America does that on a wide scale.
You mean like this?
I never consider Drake Black. He seemed too white.That's it right there. The fact that his white mammy let him do that says all you need to know about how he grew up and why he is messed up today. I kept my kids home from school when the teachers was dragging our kids to cotton plantations for field trips, if somebody wanted my kid to put on Black face I'd go and beat their ass. Again, a lot of biracial people who are mixed with white tend to let the white side influence their kids' upbringing, a dominance of sorts. Bedroom colonizing is complicated when one of the parents is white or white adjacent. They try to graft their Black kids into whiteness and it never works out. They withhold the kid from Blackness a little too long and then before you know it, the kid are at school with a bunch of white kids being made out of a fool.
I hate it for him, but it's not our problem that he doesn't fit in. It's not our fault his mom chose to raise him as white and he didn't fit in. I know plenty of light-skinned Black men who you can tell are Blackitty Black Black. Skin tone has nothing to do with the heart and Black state of mind. People thing being Black is limited to our culture. You can put on clothes, steal or appropriate the culture (because he got skin and religious connects), and go forward. Drake wouldn't be where he is today if it wasn't for his mom's white skin and her Jewish heritage, the latter moreso than the former, Period.

DJ Khaled Appears To Shade Tyler, The Creator For Beating Him To #1
DJ Khaled released his new album Father Of Asahd last month. He really, really wanted it to debut at #1 on the Billboard charts.

Tyler, the Creator reflects on DJ Khaled's diss from 2019 when their albums dropped at the same time: 'It was like watching a man die inside.'www.cheatsheet.com
He had the nerve to throw shade and refer to a Black artist's music as "mysterious music." Just straight scorned bitch energy. I bet if it was an unknown white or other artist who took "his" spot he wouldn't have been as dismissive and shady.
DJ Khaled is so entitled, egotistical and "jeoulse its sad."

Bruh facts I have always gotten this in first class. I have status with Delta too so I board first and get treated really well. It never fails, they are nosey AF and a lot of the times you can see them keep looking at you. When they finally muster up the courage they ask what you doing for a living. It’s usually when I take my headphones off to ask for another Prosecco and then they strike.you fly first class on an interntaional trip the white man next you will always, always, always try to strike up a conversation to ask you what you do. And if its not athlete or entertainer he's mad shook. And he has 2 questions he wants answered and he'll act any kinda fake way he can
1. How do I learn how to duplicate what you did
2. We gotta stop n*ggers from moving up this way.

“Hey so what brings you to Dallas?”
Then once they get the info they no longer want to talk to you. Last month I was in Scottsdale, AZ and as I was leaving my hotel room the staff were talking to me and the lady working the bar was talking about how she wants to see me again and so some white lady old as dirt stops me and asks if I’m an athlete. I said no and she was basically like:

With this interview alone, I can kind of tell that Drake seems resentful of bring half-Black to a degree by the way he's subtly throwing shade at the Black people who he feels didn't embrace him enough because he's mixed and light-skinned (allegedly). He seems to feel just as "rejected" and "out of place" as many of these Black misfits, Black nerds, Black LGBTQ people, and other "outcasts" claim to. Imagine if Drake was 100% white and at least 50% ethnically white Jewish. I doubt he would be a rapper. He'd probably be a rabbi or some well-to-do NYC yuppie.Nothing wrong with embracing both sides you are from but anything that makes you 1. ashamed or angry at your black side. 2. Makes you compromise your integrity and dignity to be accepted by white folks by saying or doing things that are counter productive and 3. f*cks with your self worth
Hi,You mentioned that Shaun King is accepted being that he is mixed allegedly so how did this become about Larry Elder?? The discussion is about Drake again he is NOT black..
Do some Black 💩, Drake! Buy some land & build a Black Wall Street! Even if you call it DRAKE TOWN or whatever, SHOW US WHO I WIT! 💯 I thought you would've done the right thing, when you purchased that airplane, but naaahhh!Drake dad is FBA. He needs to push that fact more
Its all Canada this, jewish that
