Drake is severely neglecting his responsibilities to the hip hop community while also being the biggest rapper in the game … at least, that’s what several of the top gatekeepers in rap would have you believe.
Rap Radar’s Elliott Wilson couldn’t stomach seeing Drake interviewed on TikTok star Bobbi Althoff‘s “The Really Good Podcast” … and ripped him for being too comfortable with talking to hip hop outsiders — his beachside chat with Lil Yachty notwithstanding.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Drake interviewed with RR back in 2019 and Elliott thinks he should continue to talk to hip hop podcasters, even if his outlet isn’t the one getting the exclusive.
Dishing the tea is one thing but Hot 97’s Ebro Darden took Drake to task even further, on Apple Music’s “Rap Life Review,” for never addressing Black social issues.
Ebro discredited Drake’s diss of Childish Gambino‘s “This Is America” … noting how CG chose to speak out when the country was in turmoil while Drake played the background where it’s safe!!!
The pile-up came to a head Tuesday when DJ Akademiks had plenty of “told-you-so’s” for his Rumble audience … after having a rant similar to Elliott and Ebro’s go viral back in March.
Ak thinks Drake’s silly interviews are just measures to expand his youth reach but says it’s criminal he hasn’t even been interviewed by rap media’s leading platform … “The Joe Budden Podcast!!!”
Drake’s currently on tour, kicking it with Steph Curry and all. It gets busy at the top … he’ll respond when he gets a minute!!!
