@biafaraboy @milkyezy65408 @sokyu_5 @DiggingInTheDi1 They’re majority of the time disingenuous when you provide nuance to the history.

@biafaraboy @milkyezy65408 @sokyu_5 @DiggingInTheDi1 The issue with some of these intellectual black speakers that those non-minorities prop up is they will leave out context on what went on behind the scenes to the black community. When you explain it to them they will say things like “why are black people so easy to manipulate”.

I used to know a highly intelligent Black guy. As in genuinely intelligent, top of his class in grades, eventually became a millionaire in his 20's He hated other Blacks. Loathed them. Had absolutely nothing in common with them. He was a modern day Uncle Ruckus, hating everything popular in Black communities This is often the experience of minorities that are extreme IQ outliers, they can't even deny all the racist comments outsiders make about their co-ethnics

Yall think the CIA is washed but their psy op of turning the Epstein shit into a meme so that people ignore how horrific it truly was actually worked perfectly

@UP_Caine @ceeeejaaaaay19 @HadesUnfolded @Mark_cremieuxn @IAmEricVincent Put hip hop aside also. It has nothing to do with the quality of music. There will not be another Beyoncé or Taylor Swift because people have too many outlets to music in general. Artists will have their core fanbase but the era of superstars are over. That’s just my opinion.

@ceeeejaaaaay19 @XavierSilent @HadesUnfolded @Mark_cremieuxn @IAmEricVincent I dont see it as drake being suppressed. he was but thats not what the picture is for. the picture is to show radio CAN still drive revenue and engagement to the general consumer who does a 9-5 and drives to work everyday. now bots aside and industry games its still a big record

“The battle ruined hip hop” So according to ppl who say this, hip hop can only be alive if Drake is perceived to be on top..? That’s absolutely insane 🤦🏾‍♂️

@UP_Caine @ceeeejaaaaay19 @HadesUnfolded @Mark_cremieuxn @IAmEricVincent Yea but in terms of hip hop for that ss the radio is playing what’s hot because the general consumer grew up on those hip hop artists during the radio era. Hip hop was going to die off regardless of the quality of music being put out due to media in general.

@ceeeejaaaaay19 @UP_Caine @HadesUnfolded @Mark_cremieuxn @IAmEricVincent That’s the thing tho, songs can chart but there is a good chance the casual listener does not dive deep into that artist catalog like people use to. Due to attention span and it is also now popular to hate on social media, there will never be a genuine agreement on what’s “good”.

@XavierSilent @UP_Caine @HadesUnfolded @Mark_cremieuxn @IAmEricVincent Dawg exactly. Media now is about engagement and platforming new artists no one knows does not drive engagement

@UP_Caine @IAmEricVincent @BNiles1997 Migos is also a level of talent that was still in early days of social media. We are in times where people’s attention span is fried due to tik tok and media in general.There isn’t gonna be artists that reach a level the general public agrees they like due to their attention span

@XavierSilent @IAmEricVincent @BNiles1997 its not really about a superstar. migos was hot as fish grease. I wouldnt call them superstars. they made great music. we will prolly never see another drake again. nor a dot or cole. but we can have good b level artist but as of now the music that has been out sucks. thats it

@UP_Caine @HadesUnfolded @ceeeejaaaaay19 @Mark_cremieuxn @IAmEricVincent The problem you seem to not comprehend is the outlets to music is not the same as it once was. The general public does not go to the radio anymore. That is why there will not be another superstar of drakes caliber regardless of their quality of music.

@HadesUnfolded @ceeeejaaaaay19 @Mark_cremieuxn @IAmEricVincent we dont care if they new or fresh. they arent fucking good to the general public. I dont know what part of that the internet has a problem with comprehending that. most individual dont care what a music nerd think is good. they just like how things sound. vanilla ice went plat.

@IAmEricVincent @UP_Caine @BNiles1997 He wants there to be a declared superstar that there are stans and casual listeners. That part of hip hop is dead but it has nothing to do with the beef lol. It was already heading in that direction with the rise of social media and all of these different outlets to music.

@UP_Caine @BNiles1997 Who says they aren’t buying their albums? Cole’s fans supported him. Baby Keem sold out his tour and his album is doing well. Stop lying

@UsingLyft They said the dislike count isn’t public I thought. They are using it to train data on what they consider to be “misinformation”,spam , bots using AI.

The dislike button will also make it extremely difficult to promote new and controversial ideas. Humans are wired to notice negativity more than positivity. A dislike will be like 100 likes. I can’t think of a worse idea than a dislike button on this app. Make ppl articulate their dislike for something or they can ignore it. Don’t give them a cheap way to be negative.

@KahL_One @TheJobfather__ Reread what he said lol

I'm so glad Black kids these days can freely enjoy anime, comics and Video games. 20 years ago if you liked those things a lot of your peers were calling you a weirdo or an "oreo".

@amarim_j Idk I don’t watch her, I thought she literally just started around that streamer university shit.

@XavierSilent I’ve been seeing clips of this girl for like 2 years now, so with that logic most of the women I named just started lmao

Yonna Cinna Mari Kani my good sis Eboni Paige Wendy and many, many more that puts in way more work than her and actually has ENTERTAINING content ideas …. i hate when people think IRL= good content. You actually have to be entertaining for that btw.

@solorunshit @switchemjay @ybdeyo Majority of them (on twitter) are kids and new fans who came around during that yb better shit.

@switchemjay @ybdeyo Yb fans are drones and I fw yb

PlaqueBoyMax the same 🥷 that said ‘Headtap’ by NBA YoungBoy was trash but spamming emotes to ts🤔

@crisisscenario @FastLifeBlack @Domthgreat @Akademiks @EyeLineHer There is not gonna be another top guy. With how social media is and streaming, artists will have their core fanbases but majority will not reach that big 3 level of success imo.

@FastLifeBlack @Domthgreat @Akademiks @EyeLineHer I was talking about the torch in general. Considering that Drake AND kanye also stamped Keem but it appears to you he isnt the guy. Who is the guy then ?

The simple truth is media guys now tryna blame Drake for their demise without acknowledging most ppl saw their peak as hating on Drake during the battle .. once the battle faded .. it’s been 2 years btw.. yall became irrelevant and a 1 trick pony. All yall got fired. Sorry

@TINOISFUNNY @adoremeluv1 @squire_katlego And that Stake clip make makes AK look like he gaslighting the hell out niggas lmfao, wym you don’t know Stake is based on crypto? 😂

@TINOISFUNNY @adoremeluv1 @squire_katlego lol from these clips it literally looks like they are trying to build a case that Drake and Nicki are running the smear campaign against Meg. They are asking about Stake because they probably think he is getting paid through that sponsorship.

🚨DJ Akademiks Calls Out Charlamagne & Pusha T Over “Smear Campaign” Claims Against Drake DJ Akademiks is pushing back on what he calls another conspiracy narrative being pushed by Charlamagne Tha God this time involving accusations that Drake allegedly uses PR teams to control narratives and smear opponents. Here’s the breakdown of Akademiks response: 1️⃣ Akademiks Calls the Claims a “Conspiracy” Akademiks says the idea that Drake is secretly paying PR firms to manipulate media narratives is pure speculation unless real proof is presented. He points out that Charlamagne first floated the idea that a hip hop figure is using PR companies to push propaganda and influence media coverage. But Akademiks says there has been no concrete evidence showing Drake is behind any smear campaigns. “Until we see a definitive list or real proof, this just feels like hearsay.” 2️⃣ Pusha T Joins the Conversation The situation escalated when Pusha T tweeted “Interesting” in response to an article about PR firms allegedly spreading narratives. Akademiks found that ironic because: •Pusha T is signed to Roc Nation •Yet he’s implying Drake might be connected to media manipulation. Akademiks says before Pusha speaks on smear campaigns, he should address allegations surrounding his own label. 3️⃣ Akademiks Brings Up Roc Nation Allegations Akademiks argues that Roc Nation has already been accused of narrative manipulation in the past. He referenced claims from former TMZ personality Van Lathan, who once said Roc Nation was “seeding negative stories” about Colin Kaepernick during tensions involving Jay-Z. Because of this, Akademiks says it’s hypocritical to accuse Drake while ignoring accusations against Roc Nation. “If we’re talking about smear campaigns, we have to start with Roc Nation first.” 4️⃣ Akademiks Points to His Own Experience Akademiks also reminded viewers that he previously claimed Roc Nation targeted him after his coverage of Megan Thee Stallion. He says he was: •Followed by suspicious vehicles outside his home •Pulled into a 7-hour deposition •Dragged into legal issues connected to the situation At the time, he says people dismissed his claims as crazy. Now, he finds it strange that those same people are suddenly entertaining conspiracy theories about Drake. 5️⃣ Akademiks Questions the Logic Akademiks also argues the narrative doesn’t add up. Over the last few years, Drake has faced some of the most serious accusations in hip-hop discourse, including being labeled a pedophile during rap beefs. Akademiks says if Drake were actually paying millions for smear campaigns, those accusations would never have dominated the conversation. “If Drake had a team paying millions to smear people, that would be the biggest failure ever.” 6️⃣ Akademiks Wants Proof Not Narratives Akademiks says he’s open to the conversation if evidence appears. But he refuses to accept accusations without victims, proof, or documented examples. He ended by saying: •If Drake is doing it → expose it. •If anyone else is doing it → expose them too. But selectively targeting Drake while ignoring other powerful entities in the industry doesn’t make sense. ✅ Bottom Line: Akademiks believes the smear-campaign narrative around Drake is being pushed without evidence, and he’s calling out both Charlamagne and Pusha T for promoting the idea while ignoring similar accusations surrounding Roc Nation.

@Prodbytrey_ @clydetheconnect @IDK Aye bro I get you’re a fan of his clearly trying to defend that nigga. I really dgaf what genre it is, it’s a subgenre of R&B lol. All I said was the niggas making think pieces about that part are tripping.
