Jun 18, 2025·4 repliesngl theres two facts we need to make clear.
1. The Toronto crowd being the only show screaming "One more time" after Not Like Us is extremely embarrasing BUT the 2nd fact we also got to accept it Drake can easily do a sold out show at SoFi stadium so the narrative of "performing" in a rival city makes no sense.

You're in every single Drake thread crying about the man. Have some self awareness.

_ _I don't want to be prudish, but Drake's gambling habits are unlike any other celebrity we see today. Sports teams gambling is also predatory; many sports fans online and in person complain about the amount of rampant advertisements, but let's not focus on that right now.
I'm not lying when I say that focusing on women leaves a bad taste in people's mouths and will continue to be the narrative. Sure, there are a lot of women in this city who adore Drake, and I'm sure they'll be at Caribana and Ovo Fest soon, but I'm just relaying what I see and what I believe; it's anecdotal after all.
Regarding the last comment people do care about this stuff, I actually try not to be involved with this entire Drake/Kendrick thing for the past few year or so, but this Kendrick show drama has me seeing so much dumb stuff on both sides, I just don't understand why I'd even begin to lie about this stuff, people call me a Drake stan/Kendrick hater sometimes
ofc I completely understand your perspective is anecdotal, I'm just trying to tell you that our individual perspectives can lean to be quite narrow. I do genuinely think that the gambling thing a majority of people don't actually think THAT hard about and they probably just ignore the adverts like they do with most adverts. It is weird and I see what you're saying completely when comparing it to other celebs.
I think it's key to remember we hear the ones complaining MORE than the people who ignore / think nothing of it. obvious to say but just because it's louder doesn't mean it's the consensus.
The reason I say the flames women thing is insane from my opinion, is because a majority of his songs are loverboy / heartbroken songs not ANTI women. It's more relatable TO women to hear that perspective than anything. I hear you though there ARE people who don't like the odd lines that have come out.
It's good you get called a hater/stan from both sides, better to be aware of everything than blinded on one side. Drake/Kendrick is just weird to talk about online nowadays, it always feels like there is an abundance of unreasonable hate (like people are trying to convince you this specific negative point HAS to be factually true, and there is no nuance to it) I guess the internet is like that for a lot of things and won't ever change though.
Appreciate the reasonable response!

S*** is hilarious because even the Drake haters are calling Torontonians stupid for how much they were sucking Kendrick's d***. No one is defending what they did.

Real person raised in Toronto here, I'll explain the narrative a bit clearer before you go trashing people, saying they're spineless, cucks, etc
Drake is pretty loved here, but many people have reservations about him, particularly recently. I enjoy Drake's work up until 2017/2018, and I believe he can be a kind and charitable person, but the Drake we see nowadays gambles, hangs out with neo-nazi streamers, constantly disses and argues with artists, flames women and makes petty moves in the public. It's easy not to defend and bang for someone like this; if Drake kept his head down, I'm sure more people would be going bat for him. Also, the optics of defending Drake tooth and nail mean people can pull the "you're defending a groomer or pedo artist now?" line, which people don't want to get involved in.
Also, Kendrick is the most popular rapper in the area who is not named Drake, so it makes sense given how many people attend the Drake show. Many people from Detroit, other parts of Ontario, and New York attended this show--it was a spectacle because it felt like both cities; think of Pac fans in New York or Big fans in California; I'm sure everyone at those shows had Take Care downloaded.
Simply I just wish both sides had more perspective and nuance in this and didn't make biased sweeping statements on s*** they don't know
You didn’t factor in that Kendrick was an underground rapper until he clout chased off of Drake

Jun 18, 2025Ehhh I doubt it. Drake knows if it got out how much of a cornball he would look like. Then again he has done some questionable things recently so s*** who knows.
