I heard an interview with Drake on the Canadian NPR show Q some months ago, and he said flat out that he didn't grow up rich at allat one point both he and his mother, who was ill at the time, lived in the basement of somebody's home because they had nowhere else to stay. Meaning he probably had to act just to help his mother outyeah, it was a nice area, but he said they weren't rich by any stretch of the imagination. It certainly wouldn't make him any less legit of a rapper if he had been richwhether you're rich or poor, either you have the talent or you don't. Seriously,this whole outdated idea/stereotype that ALL rappers have to be poor and struggling from the 'hood is way past old and tired. I mean, hell, even hip-hop legends RUN-DMC and Public Enemy were rappers from middle-class 'hoods, and I've never heard anybody claim that THEY weren't legit because they weren't straight out of the ghettogive me a break. Not all of the first rappers were 'hood dwellers eitherdo the research.
Just came on here due to the rerun of Drake's hosting on SNLhe was pretty good, and whatever people like to hate on him for, the man c5b4an rap,and he's really blown up and grown as a rapper since thenend of story. I got into some of his stuff when I first heard "Forever" and "They Know" the first songs I'd heard by him. He's made it, despite all the haters, which is a good thing, regardless. -

JEALOUSY . THINK ABOUT IT. Who would log on to this to leave a negative comment but some Lonley broke tear drop looking for a reason to blame someone else for why their life is so beep up. And how he made life happen. And they will die sad jealous and broke..

I dont feel its so much hate as it is people are tired of drake he's on his 14th min of fame .His music is the same on every album he does it just gets old hes got nothing new to offer he doesnt raise any kind of bar above average .Yet people girls mostly praise him like he's some kind of next big thing when he's not .
e is Lenny, before Lenny became a man. And, no one dissed Kravitz. Enjoy him will he is still rough around the edges; that will all smooth out one day. While he is still open to being honest in his lyrics, and his life is relatively pain free. In another ten years that will be all gone from his music
there's haves and have nots in this world lenny is a have please dont compare someone like lenny kravitz who is fathomly more talented than drake will ever be in his entire career and life .For me i think drake has gotten old fast his act is very repetitive
You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.
