Drakes 2024 was already a dumpster fire, and 2025 isnt looking much better.
This week has been especially awful for the guy.
I keep asking the question: what in the world did Drake do to deserve this?
And he’s got a point that those are some pretty nuclear accusations.
But he (claims), none of this has got him down.
He just started a tour in Australia.
In fact, he did this-
after doing this a few months ago-
Which set Drake off.
But the number of big names jumping on the pile to bury Drake only continues to grow.
I love that record, the Death Row icon said of Not Like Us.
Ima say this on camera.
I dont want to get negative.
So, for the story that just refuses to die, the drama is still very much alive.
In her words, rap battles are full of bombast and rhetorical hyperbole- its the name of the game.
Shes betting the average person listening knows its not literal fact, so Drake cant easily claim defamation.
Were talking they knew it was false or they were basically ignoring the truth to run with it.
So, Kendrick is good to go on Sunday right?
Of course Kendrick wants to perform it.
Theyre about big headlines, big controversies, big drama.
Remember when they told Snoop Dogg not to crip walk and he did anyway?
That didnt exactly crater civilization.
But, corporate lawyers are a real thing (sadly).
Its hard to imagine Lamar performing the entire diss verbatim on online grid TV.
The real question is whether that even matters?
Again, look at the whitest people in the world singing it in unison at Sunday’s Grammy’s.
Cutting a line or two doesnt remove the sting of the original from the public consciousness.
In many ways, leaving it out might only stoke social media’s fire.
So again, back to my question,where does Drake go from here?
This has gotta be the worst week of his life.
Is it karma as some say?
I mean Drake pretty much ended Meek Mill’s career with “Back 2 Back”.
Fast forward 9 years, and the tables have turned on Drake.
If the lyrics dont get changed, well, thats an even bigger L for Drake.
At the end of the day, the experts say this defamation suit is likely going nowhere.
The NFL probably isnt too worried about it, and neither is K-Dot.
Hes got a show to put on.
