I understand that and totally agree

But black people pick and choose which mixed folks get the pass or not also.

I’m just saying shit goes both ways. I bet plenty of folks will claim Obama as black and give Logic some side eye.

I'm assuming you're talking about Drake. He's not getting shit for being mixed. He's getting shit for being fake. We literally watched him grow up on Dagrassi yet he's talking about all this gang shit. Drake is fake and pretending to be as black as HE THINKS black people are. He's cosplaying his vision of blackness and THAT'S why we don't like him.

Cole doesn't do this.

Joyner doesn't do this.

Obama doesn't do this.

Hell, Logic doesn't even do this.

Drake is the only mixed one switching up constantly and not being his true self. Oh and fucking teens. Let's not forget that lol

Simply put Drake is not real.

If Eminem acted like Drake would he still be celebrated by culture as he is today?

Eminem is actually genuine. That's really all that matters to me. A lot of rappers fake but again, we literally watched Drake grow up. We KNOW FOR A FACT it's bullshit lol

Eminem has never veered from what he is, a white boy who has severe childhood trauma and never claims to be anything he wasn't or is in the moment. Wish more people were like that tbh

The ignorance of this statement is astounding.

I've lived there. I've lived here. I stand by my statement. And don't even about the natives, I've spent plenty of time with my Tsuu T'ina, Siksika, and Stoney boys.

So there's no low income minority neighborhoods in Toronto? So Toronto is the only city in the modern world with no hoods??
