Fans Believe Drake Called Hip-Hop “Weird” But That’s Not Really What Happened

by

Drake is currently in the midst of a social media firestorm due to his recent appearance on xQc’s Kick stream. Overall, Drizzy was only on the stream because he is sponsored by Stake, which owns the Kick streaming service. xQc is their top creator ever since the exodus of Adin Ross, so it only makes sense that Drake would be employed to pull up. However, the timing was unique given the fact that Kendrick Lamar released an album with GNX on Friday.

Of course, fans were interested to see if Drake was going to have anything to say about the album or his rap rival as a whole. In the end, there were a lot of shots taken throughout the livestream. He poked fun at Kendrick, The Weeknd, Steve Lacy, and even the West Coast as a whole. However, one comment, in particular, had fans up in arms. At one point, he says “rap music weird now anyway.” This sent many fans into a spiral, with some proclaiming that Drake doesn’t even respect the genre anymore. While this makes for great headlines, it is a misrepresentation of what happened.

Drake With An Interesting Comment

According to numerous community notes on X, it was noted how Drake was actually just reading a comment from the livestream’s chat. When you analyze where he was looking and how he said it, it was pretty clear that he was reading the flurry of comments that were coming in. While Drake has made quite a few missteps in 2024, it is important to remain level-headed when these kinds of things happen. Sure, it is easy to dunk on him, but you have to maintain some objectivity here.

Twitter sure does love to run away with narratives, and this was a prime example of that in action. Only time will tell whether or not the internet apologizes to Drizzy for misinterpreting what went down. If there is anything we know about online culture, it is that an apology will likely never come.

Adin Ross Confirms 21 Savage Reimbursed Him After Marked Cards Scandal

by

During a phone call with Kai Cenat, Adin Ross cleared the air about the ongoing situation with 21 Savage. First, Ross made it very clear that he did not blame 21 for using marked cards during their recent high-stakes gambling stream. Instead, Ross placed the blame on a member of Savage’s crew. Furthermore, Ross confirmed that since the stream, he had received a $250K payment from 21 to settle their debt. Cenat was simply happy that Ross, a close friend of his, had “got that bread”.

It appears the pair settled on $250K after a variety of numbers were thrown around following their stream. 21 initially promised to pay Ross $400K after the streamer discovered that the rapper’s crew had brought marked cards for their gambling stream. 21 denied any knowledge of the cards. However, he said he would honor his debt and pay Ross the full amount he owed. The rapper had been down $400K at one point in the stream before making a miraculous comeback, eventually cashing out with Ross owing him $120K.

Adin Ross Tries To Cop Flight On Air Drake, Gets Told Insane Cost

Meanwhile, 21 is not the only rapper that Ross has been rolling with lately. Drake has revealed to Adin Ross that he needs $3M to fly on the rapper’s private jet, Air Drake. The revelation came as Drake dialed into Ross’ latest stream. However, Ross, who is either a multi-millionaire or broke depending on the day, appeared confident that he could put the money together to cop a ride on the luxury airliner. Despite this, Drake held firm and let Ross know that there were no “friends and family discount” on an Air Drake trip. It was $3M or nothing.

Air Drake is a customized Boeing 767-200 that Drizzy acquired through a commercial partnership with Cargojet. It features a sky blue and white livery designed by Drake’s late friend, Virgil Abloh. The fully customized interior has been likened to a five-star hotel and features at least three private suites and two living rooms.
