"highest ethical practices" is a bit of a stretch.

What I never understood is Drake’s lyric “Started from the bottom…” like bitch you started on Degrassi 🤷‍♂️

Bro has never even seen the bottom! Has grown up with a pool in his backyard his whole life. Bro's never even had to drink out of a hose before.

But Drake is signed to UMG… he suing his own label???

ugh a clapback so hard that it's still reverberating somewhere outside Parsippany

He first came out : was a loser
On this very day: still a loser
As a Canadian I hate that we’re associated with this loser!

Aubrey was responsible for half those listens.. so what’s the problem 🤣

dobbyshorcrux.bsky.social•98 days ago

Hit em with the white guy speak

Cuz we all know Universal would never do anything to artificially juice stream counts: https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2012/12/28/youtube-music-labels-fake-views-universal-sony_n_2376037.html

This 52 yr old white chick had Kendrick's songs on repeat for a month ... no one forced me to pick the winning side. Take the L, Drake.

GNX is what’s up and this coming from a white woman who’s been bumping d.i.t.c beats since the early 90’s…Much love & respect to Kendrick for keeping the real culture alive 🙏

queenbunnybean.bsky.social•98 days ago

They are absolutely right though & I’m glad they said it OUT LOUD

carriecall.bsky.social•98 days ago

Ooofff when we bring out that word ‘contrived’, add Bitch to the beginning of the sentence.

What a helluva hill to die on!

Lol this reminds me of when Jerry Heller wanted to sue Ice Cube and his rappers had to tell him how lame and wack it was to get legal over a rap battle.

darafaye.bsky.social•98 days ago

Man, what a sore loser.

bahnmi.bsky.social•98 days ago

Funny part is umg isn’t even Kendrick’s label they just handle licensing. UMG has a contract directly with Drake lmao.

wutangforchildren.bsky.social•98 days ago

Oh is that what it is…either he’s an idiot
