  1. As a Jamaican, we stay getting told by other islanders that we think Jamaica is all that matters and its not even us all the time. Sometimes yes. We're self centered. But not always… And Reading Pa isn't huge. It's like 16 blocks with 4 black people. And all you smell is the mushroom farms.

  2. Only 9 mins in but I had to interject. He was raised by a white woman in the suburbs of Canada and used the the N word with the hard R . He plays in our face but just found out about L.A Gang culture. 🤣🤣 I'm from L.A. My family is foundational Gang Bangers. 🤣🤣

  3. Drake is the singy Drake, which is his most successful stuff. I don't have an issue with him doing different genres. We know he's Canadian. The albums where he's doing that we're something else weren't as successful. Canada has Caribbean people up there too. I don't mess with the last 2 or 3 albums

  4. There’s a difference between being light skin and biracial. I think Drake is a beacon of hope for people who’ve never felt accepted and seeing Drake rise to the top makes them feel validated personally.

  5. J'adore cette chaîne. Just discovered your channel, very interesting topics. This world is indeed sad (as if opinions aren't personal lol, but Internet).

  6. Kenricks music has always been the best rapper since he's been rapping. Also black people have SOOO MUCH TO BE PROUD OF!!!!!! Coming from a white hip hop lover.

  7. Ol’ girl around the 8:52 mark completely missed the point. He himself said his dad didn’t raise him. He JUST started really being around his dad to exploit his blackness

    Nevermind she’s a Drake caper that’s why she’s tryna push that point. A false point

  8. @ Rebecca… those are not who we call grimo … and also you named the popular artists that was probably at the top of their game during your time. If you knew the Haitian music industry you would never have said that they’re the ones who are top. I can name you so many darker skin legendary groups and we can start since 1950s when Konpa started. You make good points but please please be careful of not providing wrong info about the culture .

  9. talking about accepting people. internalized racism. people are what they are. and if an artist shows different styles, oh well. thats called living life, why stay in one hood and never change. old school confinement.

  10. colorism. all rap, hip hop, once on the radio. is commercial. industry controlling the images and culture. real community on the streets playing music for free. learning to play beats not by dre.

  11. 1:27:12 for my Latino perspective; a lot of our homes including my Puerto Rico to an extent and especially places like Costa Rica have our cultures characterized as tourist destinations for Americans and especially white Americans

  12. 1:04:11 the fact that many black Americans wrote off pan-African unity as “corny” in the 90s instead of criticizing its problematic elements but keeping the overall pro-black leanings compared to discussions like this about how black people could be coming together as a diaspora now should show how this discussion has changed over the years. For the record, NOT comparing you guys to Arrested Development lmao

  13. My experience with Haiti as a country as a Puerto Rican American born in 2002 is it being treated as a victim of a hurricane and that was the extent of the discussion.
