FEATURED The Kendrick vs Drake vs UMG vs Where's J. Cole? Thread

[Chi-Town B]

He's content to keep having those cream puff interviews that he dictates what is being asked.

Dre and Snoop did the Pass the Torch shit a year before he went on tour w Drake if I remember correctly

The other two I’d have to agree cuz I always thought Weekend was an OVO nigga

Idk much about Dave I like some of his shit tho

I've never heard this before right now. And most people will tell you the same or they're lying about it.

I think the real question is what's the shelf life of someone being put on

 

[BlackRain]

Saying this while sitting and interviewing with a white woman is hilarious

Talking about getting sensitive over a culture vulture allegations sitting next to a white woman is a hilarious image

 

[Freeman]

Joe and AK been running that play since Joe realized he was never getting the interview he coveted and could still generate large amounts of revenue just shitting on him instead. But thats why ak will never get an interview either unless he turns on Joe.

Depends how much actual good music they can create after the fact.

Till death…

Let them tell it, they’ll be screaming I put you on till they day they leave this earth.

But ignore the fact that they benefitted from it also one way or another.

Yall want him to sit with niggas calling him a culture vulture, niggas saying he's a cancer to hiphop, niggas that was dancing at the pop out, niggas that said he wasn't black enough, niggas running plays to chase views.

It's obvious he's either signed or invested in Bobbi. He's not doing it for vibes it's good business.

But lets say its just for vibes who exactly in hiphop would like to see him sit with that would satiate your gripes with him?

So him mad cuz Kendrick didn't wanna jump on the album. So he does the predictable thing and side wit Kendrick's ops. Gotcha. Smh.

Pretty sure had Kendrick did the feature he'd be singing a different tune.

And instead he's doing interviews with racists adin ross, how is that helping the perception that he's not black enough

Im sure there's a few some im missing.

But you're being disingenuous with the question. Literally every artist has had to build their own momentum to break in the industry otherwise why would drake or any label bother? How would they notice? Talent doesn't do it alone anymore you have to be able to generate clicks and views off that talent to get noticed. But drake propelled all those artist I listed to a level that wasn't possible before they got with him.

Once again, yall read the first sentence on my post and ran with it. The first name on this list Drake didnt even put on, Gucci Mane put them on. So that leads me to believe all the other people on ya list are people YOU did know until Drake told you about them

what niggas is saying by put on is you d never heard of said artist if it wasn’t for the person who put him on

Like Jay put Bleek on for example

This is what they arnt grasping.

Him adin and xqc have contracts with the same companies thats why he's streaming with them. It's business.

But to my last question that you ignored who would you like to see him sit with that would satiate the gripes you have with him? No one. All of you that need to see him do that for whatever reason aren't gonna fuck with him no matter what after the fact.

Why doesn't Kendrick or jcole sit with any of those people yall want drake to sit with if they're so hiphop and Drake isn't?

 

[LurkerSix]

there’s levels of “putting on”

Who has NO buzz at all and gets put on?

They wanted Drake to bring a guy off the street and give him a name and then develop him lol

I’m like tf

Ahh yes, how absurd of an idea that a music label would see an unknown artist with talent and sign them, then develop them into a big name. Cuz thats never happened before in the history of music.....

Any hip hop media, hell go talk to Ak

 

[LurkerSix]

Since im neither of these niggas friends, who Kendrick put on?

 

[Water Ur Seeds]

Drake and Kendrick are totally different artists...

I know Drake is known for doing tons of features and will often take abit of the artists style and hop on a current trend but in doing so he does technically boost their careers...

Like he came over here to London and collab'd with a few artists and started dressing and talking like he was from Brixton for while, which no doubt made a difference to guys like Skepta who he worked with...

Is that putting on??? Kind of...

Thing is Drake is a popstar with fanatical fans like The Barbz and The Beehive, so his co-sign really can boost an artists profile... Whereas Kendrick isnt really a popstar, his features and co-signs prolly wont move an already established or partially established artists career that much...

 

[Freeman]

Any hip hop media, hell go talk to Ak

Why would he go sit with ak when ak bff Joe budden is his op? And yall just gonna say "why did he go sit with ak?"

Ak is never getting that interview btw. Drake can clearly read between the lines that ak and Joe budden are running a play and baiting views. He's gonna keep ak at a distance.

 

[Elzo69Renaissance]

Not Like Us was AK number 1 most listened song

Told yall niggas AK was a fraud lol

 

[LurkerSix]

This lowkey shows current pitiful state of hiphop. The thought of signing and believing in someone that hasnt already made their own large following is seen as a joke

Nigga want us to give him credit for “puttin on” the Tuesday nigga lmaooooo

Crazy part is, Ilovemakonnen had is own following in ATL before Drake, and Tuesday was his big hit that Drake jumped on & took. So I dont count that as putting on, especially after how Drake fucked up the mans music career after he signed to him.

This is what they arnt grasping.

If you read my post you would maybe understand what im saying but your goal is just to be disingenuous to prove a point. Migos were not popping outside of Atlanta before they got with drake. There's levels.
