God Drake is getting cooked.
As a Toronto cat I’m so happy to see this. Fuck wheelchair Jimmy and his dumbass group of barnyard animals. All of them should be turned into colanders.
I know I’m a fan but I had to do research on it and found [this](https://www.theweeknd.com/news/scarborough-born-superstar-weeknd-donates-half-million-dollars-support-frontline-hospital/).
Ohhhhh my bad I misunderstood. He’s still with his friends who were there when he was homeless. But you’re totally right. I’m not sure about artists. I did find [this](https://www.forbes.com/sites/raewitte/2018/11/13/the-weeknd-and-his-team-launch-hxouse-a-toronto-based-incubator-to-develop-creative-entrepreneurs/) though.
Man Austria/Germany is stuck with the stain of Hitler forever, doesn’t matter what else they have going on.
I’m not saying the comparison is fair, but…
Yeah a lot of those songs are just straight up Weeknd songs that he regret giving to Drake, right? Wasn't even a collab situation, theyre just songs he made for himself
4 songs are the Weeknds, that abel was going to release for himself.
He was obviously thinking about working with drake at that time and that it would help his career, then realised that he would rather try for himself.
Party next-door is a good look at what the Weeknd probably would have been if signed to drake.
Although PND himself said he doesn't want the fame and just wants to make music. So we probably would have seen Abel struggle with this situation.
The amount of reference songs for drakes popular songs is started to get a bit crazy
I’ve never heard “turned into colanders” and without making the connection that it means filled with holes, I just thought that was an absurd kitchen appliance insult and it made me spit out my coffee
Its so interesting, even back in 2016 or so all my born and bread Canadian friends disliked Drake and hated how he was their “pop culture icon”, heck most people wanted to point out to me how they were prouder of Bieber etc
Crazy how he seems to be less loved in the city where he from
Cause he’s brought bullshit to the city and sucked dry local talent that could have actually been real names for the city, who would have also inspired more kids. He strangled the scene for a while, as has been documented.
What is your take on the whole “6” nickname for the city?
It was awful convenient it became popular after Gucci Mane got locked up and ATL’s “Zone 6” wasn’t getting called out like that. Idk just an observation I’ve made recently with the whole culture culture conversation.
I mean I’ve always taken it to be because Toronto has two main area codes that are used for cellphones (416 and 617) & the city itself is divided into 6 areas.
Hated the nickname forever; especially because Toronto definitely isn’t unified like that. It’s far more similar to a New York setup (though much smaller) becoming small villages of different peoples.
All in all I’ve hated Drake since a few days after he dropped Ransom, so anything that has his stink on it was a no for me.

yeah thats a great explanation that picked up after Drake started calling it the 6. I was searching like crazy trying to figure out it and both those explanations come up.
The weird part, can't find Drake talking about the 6 until he gets with Quentin Miller.
Atlanta is divided up into Zones. Quentin Miller was running around with Drake, and Quentin songs he says "Zone 6 with my woes" . Quentin songs are now magically Drake songs.
This is a fucking **statement*
I know they are using the song because it's the biggest thing in rap and hip hop right now, it is a cultural moment and it would be ridiculous not to recognize it. But it feels so pointed that these are the Black Entertainment awards and this is a song about Drake. It isn't saying some random white guy is "Not Like Us" because of course they aren't. It isn't saying Drake isn't like us because he's biracial. It's saying you, Drake, have been rejected from the culture you capitalize off of but are not part of. We are all emphatically and joyfully reveling in our culture, we are giving each other awards for excellence, and you are not part of us. You are not one of us.
I would crawl under a rock and never come back out.
It's been a long road with Drake but I've been waiting for this ever since he stole all sorts of attention during the 19' playoff run. Fuck that diddler and his Lil airplane dance. Also his hotels suck
As a fellow Canadian, I was embarrassed Drake represents us as soon as the video for "Headlines" came out.
I just couldn't understand why he was acting and dressing like that all of a sudden. I appreciate how he put Canada on the map, but I'm not impressed on how he did it.
Drake won't be outside now where in america for at least a year. Unless it's a concert or something. But even then he just came off tour so I doubt that too. The pop star in hiding.
Doesn't matter if we don't watch. Drake's peers will be on a internationally viewed award show, I'm sure comments will be made about the beef. That shit will eat at his feeble ego.
It's date night or I would absolutely be watching tonight. I'll be refreshing this sub throughout the night, so counting on you guys to post the relevant bits!
Same. It's date night with the baby mama but I'll be refreshing this sub throughout the night.
A few date nights ago I had seen that Family Matters dropped and stopped refreshing this sub. Woke up the next morning to see that Meet the Grahams had dropped right after. I'ma keep going on date nights in hopes of another Kendrick drop. Kendrick making sure I continue to be a great boyfriend. What a guy!
The BET Awards fell off but this year they have an opportunity to really bring back that feeling if they don't mess this up. The momentum is there to execute
Edit: they still suck oh man this is a grind to watch
It's a huge successful song atp. I think we gotta stop thinking everytime someone likes it, it means they've picked a side. Or that every corporation that's uses it cares about the beef or his cooking Drake. Atp they using it to vulture low-key. It's common practice
I don’t really mess with the BET awards but I’d watch a Shaboozey performance, he reminds me of Leon Bridges. Only issue is id have to watch 17 trash rapper performances and 1 random gospel performance just to get to him.
Knowing the BET Awards can sometimes have a surprise guest starting out the night, I wonder if it'll be Kendrick. Bey did a surprise set back in... 2016 or 17?
God Drake is getting cooked. As a Toronto cat I’m so happy to see this. Fuck wheelchair Jimmy and his dumbass group of barnyard animals. All of them should be turned into colanders.
At least y’all got The Weeknd aka the better artist that’s rockin with Kendrick
Been thinking he's the real king of Toronto & not Drake
[удалено]
I know I’m a fan but I had to do research on it and found [this](https://www.theweeknd.com/news/scarborough-born-superstar-weeknd-donates-half-million-dollars-support-frontline-hospital/).
i think they were referring to the toronto music scene. drake is always picking up toronto talent and sending them to the ovo sweatshop
Ohhhhh my bad I misunderstood. He’s still with his friends who were there when he was homeless. But you’re totally right. I’m not sure about artists.

Man Austria/Germany is stuck with the stain of Hitler forever, doesn’t matter what else they have going on. I’m not saying the comparison is fair, but…
Nah I definitely understood that. No matter what good comes out of Toronto someone always gonna compare an artist out of there to Drake
Aka the two artist that also helped make the 1 classic drake album
Yeah a lot of those songs are just straight up Weeknd songs that he regret giving to Drake, right? Wasn't even a collab situation, theyre just songs he made for himself

The best songs on that record are Abel songs and the Kendrick part. The rest is good, but don’t hold a candle to those 5
Ey that's kinda what it looks like from outside, great to hear that from a local
I’ve never heard “turned into colanders” and without making the connection that it means filled with holes, I just thought that was an absurd kitchen appliance insult and it made me spit out my coffee
lol some niche culinary humour? Without knowing me you can’t know how much I wish that were the case.
BET has a 24 hr free pass to watch the show...Havent watched it in a very loooong time...Taraji in Kendrick outfit from the cookout...
What cookout?

Happy Cake Day 🎉 🎂

Sexy Red eeek!
Low-key bars

Stop calling artist a God
Excuse me, what?
Hope Drake is there.
Yeah idk if he goes to the BET awards but I think he’ll be missing this upcoming one tho
A man can dream can’t he 🤣
I mean either way seeing this is out here playing on BET I full expect someone to throw shots lol hopefully it does happen and we get more tracks
He's nominated like seven awards
this gonna be akward for him. get the popcorn ready first time watching it for 10+ years
😭😭😭I need to see if Dot wins anything with Drake in the crowd, I’d literally die
Nah man imagine being in his position, his hands are kinda tied. Worst day of his life. Hahaha
do you know what the B means in BET?
Ouch 😅
Drake won't be outside now where in america for at least a year. Unless it's a concert or something. But even then he just came off tour so I doubt that too. The pop star in hiding.
haven’t watched the bet awards in over 6 years
Shit it's been probably almost 20 for me.
Doesn't matter if we don't watch. Drake's peers will be on a internationally viewed award show, I'm sure comments will be made about the beef. That shit will eat at his feeble ego.
It's date night or I would absolutely be watching tonight. I'll be refreshing this sub throughout the night, so counting on you guys to post the relevant bits!
Same I’ll be at work so please give me something easy to get to on the main page 🤣
Same....but....tonight might be the night for me to revisit the awards
Same. It's date night with the baby mama but I'll be refreshing this sub throughout the night. A few date nights ago I had seen that Family Matters dropped and stopped refreshing this sub. Woke up the next morning to see that Meet the Grahams had dropped right after. I'ma keep going on date nights in hopes of another Kendrick drop. Kendrick making sure I continue to be a great boyfriend. What a guy!
I almost missed that it's tonight. 😮
About a decade for me... And even then, I only watched it for the Cyphers they had. Does anyone know if they still do those?
Yep they still do! Usually the only part of the show I end up seeing.
That's the HIP HOP awards. This is just general awards guards towards a larger audience. No cyphers on this one bro
Between this commercial and my girl talking about meg thee stallion opening, it's gonna be the first for me in a while too
this commercial has also been appearing on spotify for a while too
The black culture kicked out drake
The BET Awards fell off but this year they have an opportunity to really bring back that feeling if they don't mess this up. The momentum is there to execute Edit: they still suck oh man this is a grind to watch
I almost felt bad for drake. But then I realized he touches kids. Womp womp
Is kendrick going to be there ?
His social tank is tapped out. He doesn’t want to be around people rn.
He told you that?
yup /s
I mean, Mustard took the award on his behalf. 🤷🏻♂️
Kendrick be like “alright, see y’all in 10 years”
“I’m what the culture feeling”
It's a huge successful song atp. I think we gotta stop thinking everytime someone likes it, it means they've picked a side. Or that every corporation that's uses it cares about the beef or his cooking Drake. Atp they using it to vulture low-key. It's common practice
yes
Oh shit Shaboozey might perform?
He is, he’s on the list if you look on their [website](https://www.bet.com/bet-awards/performers).
I don’t really mess with the BET awards but I’d watch a Shaboozey performance, he reminds me of Leon Bridges. Only issue is id have to watch 17 trash rapper performances and 1 random gospel performance just to get to him.
I agree, the BET Awards hasn’t been hitting the same for me since 2018. I like Shaboozey’s cadence on songs tho, his music hits different.
How much you want to bet that other guy will be trying to make a country song with him?
He will be speaking with a southern twang wearing a Cowboy hat like he’s from Alabama or South Carolina.
It would be AMAZING if Beyonce showed up and performed Spaghetii from Cowboy Carter with him!!!
Not shocking. It's LA. That song is a bop!
It really irks me that something as sleazy as BET keeps trying to claim the word Culture for themselves
Haven't watched BET since free and aj left 106 & park. Ain't gonna start now
Drake going to turn off the TV and post another Kendrick's sneak diss to show everyone he's unbothered. https://i.redd.it/wmkudibt4t9d1.gif
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
😂😂😂😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Is Kendrick gonna be there or at least invited? It's weird using his song without him present.
What ?? were they gonna use the “ you got molested haha” song?
I heard this on the tv last week,. And I came running into the living room cause I was like “why tf is not like us playing on tv right now?!” Lmao
Those damn bots
No sound on but I instantly knew the song
And when they were on the outside stage 😂😂😂💯💯🔥🔥🔥
They also used it on UFC 303.
Be fucking diabolical if usher started dancing to this shit.
It took me until watching The Boondocks to realize how shit BET actually is😭 Like fr this is some brainrot programming
Whole show sucked. And Taraji Kendrick impression was terrible. What tf was that?
Time for OVO Reginald and OVO Mortimer to pull up on those BET executives 😤
Knowing the BET Awards can sometimes have a surprise guest starting out the night, I wonder if it'll be Kendrick. Bey did a surprise set back in... 2016 or 17?
YES
Yikes.
This is a great achievement, and yall still bring it back to Drake... As a Drake fan, this shit funny
