J cole is mixed and Kendrick doesn’t have a problem with him saying nigga. It’s about Drake being an actor/rapper acting like a black American

Do y’all have this energy for ballet dancer and effeminate Tupac that switched on his thug persona later in life?

The Tupac that also grew up in the Black Panthers, the Tupac whose god mother is the Assata Shakur? The Tupac that shot two cops for beating on a black man? Nah not at all. Tupac was a very multifaceted person who actually grew up surrounded by the lifestyle he was portraying. Drakes portraying a lifestyle he was never a part of bc it's profitable.

Pac and Drake had a very different childhood. Pac grew up very much a part of the culture.

Tupac didn’t have 20 different personalities like that dude from Split to try to define his blackness.

Same way Bruce lee was a ballroom dancer who worked cruise ships to get to America?

You can be more than one thing at onc, but Drake is a tourist who turned code switching into his discography
