Drake’s Viral & Ambiguous “RAP IS A JOKE” Shirt Gets Explained

Drake always loves to strum up a debate online, as he was making headlines yet again for a t-shirt that read “RAP IS A JOKE”. You can see him wearing the piece of clothing below in his latest Instagram post. It The caption also had rap fans talking, “The pressure from being on top does more than just make your ears pop”. Originally, there were a lot of people associating this with the Canadian artist’s loss to Kendrick Lamar in their highly publicized beef. Additionally, others were suspecting this upload (the caption in particular) was a reference to the shocking storyline that made waves just hours before. The Donald Trump assassination attempt saw him accrue a battle scar on the upper part of his right ear.

While the caption remains up in the air, the “RAP IS A JOKE” tee has a meaning separate from any possible references to K-Dot. According to Uproxx, internet/rap sleuths over at Complex dug up its origins and it has to do with “Frank Stacks and L-Money’s Rap Is A Joke battle rap and parody duo out of the Bay Area”. You can find the video for the song down below as well. Additionally, there seems to be an official account for the shirt that Drake wore on IG.

The page has a photo of Tech N9ne wearing the exact same apparel, and they also reshared Drake’s viral photo. You can also purchase the shirt if you would like for $20 with the second “[Via]” link below. Overall, this could still have something to do with Kendrick Lamar in some capacity and fans will undoubtedly continue to get on Drake for this. However, the latter will almost assuredly never explain this act in the future, so the debate will most likely continue for a little while longer.

What are your thoughts on the meaning behind the “RAP IS A JOKE” t-shirt Drake had on? Do you think this has any relation to the beef with Kendrick Lamar, why or why not? If not, what do you think he was going for here? Should Drake continue to lay low amid the aftermath of the battle, why or why not?

Kourtney Kardashian Posts Baby Bump Photos Following Pregnancy-Related Health Scare

Model, TV star, and social media powerhouse Kourtney Kardashian is continuing her healing process after her recent trip to the hospital. At first, all the world knew was that her husband shared he had to immediately postpone some shows for his pop-punk outfit, Blink-182. Those performances were about to take place in Europe. Specifically, those countries were Glasgow, Dublin, and Belfast. He shared that it was a family emergency and quickly hopped on a flight back home to Los Angeles.

Following that, we then discovered that Kourtney was the reason for Barker leaving. It was a hospital scare that many thought was going to be her giving birth to the couple’s child. Instead, it was much more serious and possibly life-threatening. The mother of three was rushed to a Los Angeles hospital where she required emergency fetal surgery according to PageSix. She took the chance to thank her doctors on Instagram saying, “I will be forever grateful to my incredible doctors for saving our baby’s life.”

Tom Brady Seemingly Responds To Gisele With “False Friends” Quote

Tom Brady has been going through it as of late in the aftermath of his divorce from Gisele Bundchen. The two had been together for over two decades, and they had multiple children together. However, they ultimately grew apart and got divorced in the middle of the season. Overall, it was a shocking development that took its toll on the field. Brady was not the same player he has been in the past, and many blamed it on his separation.

Recently, Gisele spoke to Vanity Fair about the divorce. There had been plenty of rumors floating around concerning why Bundchen left the NFL legend. Mostly, fans assumed it was because he went back on his promise to retire from the league. Although, Gisele contested this idea, saying it was because they simply didn’t want the same things anymore. “When you love someone, you don’t put them in a jail and say, ‘You have to live this life,’” Gisele said. “You set them free to be who they are, and if you want to fly the same direction, then that’s amazing. We’re not playing against each other. We are a team … and that’s beautiful. I look back and I have no regrets. I loved every bit of it.”

Tom Brady Gets Philosophical

According to Page Six, Tom Brady seemingly had a response to Gisele’s interview. While taking to his Instagram story, he posted a quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson. The quote is about what success truly is. What makes this quote so interesting, however, is the reference to “False Friends.” “What is success? To laugh often and much; To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends,” the quote reads.

Ultimately, no one truly knows what Brady was trying to say here. He has been fairly cryptic on social media as of late, which is a common theme among divorced men. Either way, he is Tom Brady which means he can do whatever he wants. He should just go out and enjoy being single. Based on Gisele’s trips to Costa Rica, it’s clear that that’s what she is doing.
