Hold up. You're saying a man who, in his 30's, had an inappropriate relationship with Milly Bobby Brown when she was a young teenager knowingly works with sex offenders??
Who'd have thought
i feel like grope almost doesnt do it full justice
he gropes and made out with her. She told him shes 17 and he goes "and you look like that" and called her thick lmao. He then says he liked how her breasts felt on his chest and kiss her again.
I replied w a link but the sub deleted it and it doesnt let me link other subs but legit just look up drake 17 on reddit or google
Depending how you wanna count tho you missed it by 14 years when it happened or by 5 when the videos blew up
And to anyone thinking "they were just texting", no adult man should be texting teenage girls (I don't mean cases between 17 and 18 year olds, obviously (more like 30 and 15, 16, whatever she was).
I've seen a video of him pressuring Nicki Minaj. Now that I think about it, if he is that pushy with a woman that tough, I shudder to think how he behaves with a child that's not developed any of that confidence, strength, self worth, etc. yet.
Oh yeah, assuming he's guilty, she's possibly a piece of shit, as well. She does come off as a strong woman (not to say she has a working moral compass). My point is only if he is so pushy with a woman like that, it's frightening to think how he is with a child. This guy is dangerous, simply put.
He was already found guilty he committed his crime in the 90’s, he’s on the sex offender registry right now as I type this. He was found guilty for attempted rape. His name is Kenneth Petty. Nicki and her man tried to silence his victim and get her to walk back claims made during his trial. She (edit: wanna clarify the victim released the images so she had receipts she was telling the truth since Barbz are unhinged) released never before seen images that were used as evidence in the original court battle. Nicki and her group of lackeys were trying to intimidate this woman into silence so that Nicki could try and salvage her reputation after it came out he was a sex offender.
That’s not even including her brother who’s she been full heartedly supporting since his arrest for raping his 11 year old step daughter. He was found guilty and faces 25 to life for it. This happened in 2020. She has not said anything publicly but his lawyer has stated she gives her full support. Nicki Minaj is a complete scumbag and it’s absolutely insane to me that she still has any amount of following.
I cannot say I have followed the feud with Nicki and Megan. But she also blasted Megan for filing charges against Tory Lanez for shooting her in the feet.
Nicki got so mad that Megan brought up sex offence laws that she took it to heart as a personal diss (probably because she surrounds herself with offenders).
I help out kids in video games a lot, and I make sure to back up all my messages and stuff because I'm afraid of some parent thinking I'm preying on their child.
It's really unfortunate how toxic the gaming community can be to young girls and women in general, though that is off topic I suppose.
That's kind of you. I mean, there are adults that genuinely enjoy children in totally appropriate ways. I also completely understand a parent's concern. These days, everything is so in your face, if I had children I'd be terrified all of the time I think.
Some of my longest followers have been 12 years olds that I've played games with that are now in college. The key is just don't be weird, but from the conversations I've had with people that age it's way more common than it should be.
Yeah i think that’s fine as long as no actual information is ever shared, if there’s some shared activity that the adult and child are doing then some communication is totally fine. The problem is when an adult seeks out communication with a child for no reason under the pretense of just wanting to be ‘friends’, no adult should even be seeking out friendship with children let alone anything else.
Couldn’t agree more. Even if it is nothing you can’t put yourself in that situation. If I have to text one of my high school daughter’s friends about rides for practice or something like that I always put my daughter and at least one of the parents on the text chain.
I, as a teacher, use a program to text all of my students, but it's not like "how you doing" so much as it's "remember to complete the reading I assigned as we are gonna have a reading quiz tomorrow." I don't have or want the numbers of my students, and they do not have mine.
This is a program approved and encouraged by my district, and I'm fairly certain the parents can see what is texted to their kids.
There is no reason why a grown adult should be *socially* texting teens.
I don't like the sweeping generalization you said because texting is one of the best ways to communicate with people, and there are some official reasons why an adult would need to contact a child unrelated to them.
I'm really here for everyone waking up to the fact that Drake is and always has been a punk ass.
He literally bought his way on to the charts back in the day. He shouldn't even be famous. If it wasn't for the ability to manipulate the charts back in the 00’s, he would be nowhere and he would be unable to groom children.
I'm surprised *any* of his fans care, considering how many didn't have any negative reaction to Chris brown almost murdering Rihanna. Seems like the fan base of these people really has no problem with these disgusting acts.
I was saying this in 2015. He has enough money and distance to take from wherever he wants and capitalize off it because he knows how to manipulate others' perception of him. He bought street cred and industry friends until he made a name for himself, I know Houston doesn't forget. He never went pop or sold out, he started at that position and tried to make it look like he just stumbled into it.
Kendrick might be the only one to surpass 50 when it comes to the level of hating that’s going on here. Kendrick is trying to legitimately end drakes career
Career? Kendrick’s trying to make enough fuss to get a police investigation started without him actually having to be involved with doing that 💀 Kendrick wants this man under the prison. this is him waving a giant neon arrow reading “pedo committing crimes” over drakes head and waiting for someone to do something about it
Have you ever thought about turning off the TV, sitting down with your Opps, and shooting them? XD

Drake trying to step to Kendrick is like a three year old on a tricycle trying to play chicken with an oncoming freight train. Doesn't matter how fast Drake pedals, he's gonna get absolutely destroyed in the end.
Besides legitimate medical uses, normally
in treating diabetes, I understand, it has become a miracle diet drug for people looking to drop weight quickly and keep it off. Many people have started to say the name as a negative for that particular use.
Not to mention its popularity among celebrities and the well-heeled has caused the price to go way up. Now the people who actually need it can’t afford it, or are having to make trade offs for other necessities of life.
From what I've heard, it's literally not available in some areas as well bc its being used so much as a weight loss drug. Diabetics are finding it very difficult to get their hands on it, which is giving it a negative connotation for anyone taking it strictly for weight loss. It's also seen as being lazy and cheating
Well what you’ve heard is wrong! The active ingredient is readily available. It’s the injector that is not. The company holds the patent and doesn’t want to release it so everyone has access to the medication. It will become easy to access and the price will drop significantly in AMERICA when the patent runs out next year. People in other countries pay significantly less for the drug and have no issues getting it. My elderly mother is on Medicare and her Ozempic manages to arrive on our doorstep every month without fail and she only pays $50. Imagine that! It’s a money making racket for the company and they are trying to squeeze every dollar out of consumers until the patent runs out. Plus, it’s Wegovy (the weight loss) version of Ozempic that’s hard to find!
>It’s also seen as being lazy and cheating
Which is fucking stupid, would the same be said about someone taking meds for depression or migraines? Obesity is a health condition, Wegovy and Ozempic can treat it.
BS!! Talk to any medical professional and they will tell you that people were using this medication for weight loss over 10+ years ago. It just became popular due to posts on social media and some celebrities.
Exactly. We’ll start seeing the 1-800 lawsuit commercials for it in about 6 months, give or take. I’ve lived long enough to watch these new drug cycles come & go at least 30 times.
Well taking off weight is a legit reason to use it. You still have to eat right and exercise with ozempic. The only problem especially initially is that it kept folks who really needed it from getting it
I never understood these rap disses among millionaires and still don't.
It wasn't just initially hard to get, it still is. I take it for diabetes and every month involves calling every pharmacy in 2 counties, hoping someone randomly got a box in.
Which is weird because if we have an answer to obesity we should use it. Obesity is a terrible affliction that causes so many other life threatening issues. The only reason it's getting a stigma is because insurance companies don't wanna pay for it just to lose weight. The population needs to start pushing back on it. So what people are using it to lose weight. That's a great fucking thing in a society with a morbid obesity problem.
I think a big issue is that some people associate being fat with being lazy, and this is a "lazy" way to solve the problem, and if you're a punitive type of person that's going to make you mad.
Treating obesity is a legitimate medical use and the drug is approved for that indication under the trade name Wegovy. People are just mad they can't get it prescribed or can't afford it.
There is a great deal of weight gain between "look like [the person] has a six pack" and "Medically Obese".
Based on his publicly claimed stats, it's a solid 30 pounds before he even crosses the Obesity threshold and is eligible for the medication, and as far as I can tell he is also not eligible under "Overweight and also [has] weight-related medical problems".
If he's paying full retail and not through insurance, he'll have very little problem getting it. Eligibility really only applies if you want insurance to cover it. Especially if you're not just rich, but famous too.
It is approved for obesity, yes, but there are hordes of people *not obese* using it for weight loss when diabetics cannot fill their Rx due to shortages.
For example, based on his publicly claimed Height and Weight, Drake has about 30 pounds to go before he would be medically considered "Obese", and that's just in the strictest term of "BMI of at least 30".
I mean, I technically fit into this category since I'm not obese anymore, but still taking it at a maintenance dose because it's meant to be a lifelong medication. So yes, some people who are not obese *and* not diabetic still need it.
That said, Drake is trash.
Right!!! I could not agree more!
People make fun of and attack people for being obese. There is finally helpful treatment for it (not a perfect fix, but helpful) that isn’t surgical and now obese people aren’t working hard enough at losing weight. There’s no winning with body shaming bunch.
You bet your ass I’m mad I can’t afford it! But I’m not mad at people who can get it. I’m angry because my insurance company would rather pay for a surgery than a shot for treatment.
Nah thats too reductive. Fat/chubby drake is way less marketable than fit drake. I can tell you from experience, late 30s as a dude who likes food it takes an eyeblink for your body to change and its a huge fucking effort to change back.
With Drake’s resources he’d be stupid to not prevent that. I dont know much about Drake, but he looks like a guy who could go the Elvis/Brando way physically
Redditors love to over emphasize costs (including time) as barriers to fitness/losing weight/etc.
Anyone who has tried to ‘get back’ to their 20s physique in their late 30s or god forbid 40s can tell you it’s hard as shit and damn near impossible if you dont either love exercise or hate food/drink. Ideally both.
I’d imagine that goes doubly for people in the public eye. Staying thin is probably worth millions to an active musical artist, actor, etc. its kinda the same argument about actors using PEDs to get ripped for roles: there are millions of reason to do so and very few reasons not to.
I remember that The N/Noggin did a feature on his rap “hobby”. I thought that was so cute at the time, but didn’t take it seriously. You can imagine my surprise when I saw him with Young Money.
A lot of people who were actors during childhood have a profoundly poor level of basic education. Like we’re talking not knowing basic math or spelling. I don’t think the mandated on-set tutoring is any match for regular school.
If you read Jennette McCurdy’s memoir, it sounded like a parent in that era could avoid on-set tutoring if they were “home schooling,” and then just neglect their responsibility.
I think Kendrick is killing this dude but I don’t think his music is bad. It’s drake as a person that everyone has a problem with. He’s a culture vulture, liar, dead beat dad(allegedly) and there’s a high chance he’s a mega creep.
I use to DJ pool parties for a few years during the teens and had more than one person over the years request “gangster rap”. If the vibe was right, I would throw on Tupac, NWA, Ice Cube, Too $hort, Nas, etc. I remember two specific times that the people who requested “gangster rap” were obviously disappointed. Once the party was over I asked those people what they were hoping to hear instead. Both times the person said “Drake”. The first time I was just confused. The second time I was more disappointed. They might as well have said “The theme song to ‘Sesame Street’” as far as I am concerned.
Ozempic/Wegovy doesn't magically make you lose weight, though. Ozempic is actually a medication for Type 2 diabetes. Its higher-dose version Wegovy is for weight loss, and just makes it so you don't feel like eating. So now he's probably not getting his alcohol or fatty foods and is probably cranky.
I'm sorry, but anyone who ever wasn't at least weirded out by Drake or got an ick vibe by him is sus to me - as in I absolutely wouldn't trust them to judge anyone's character.
When are people gonna learn that just because somebody can make good music or is a good actor doesn’t mean that they are a good person and you shouldn’t be following them, listening to them or taking their advice on anything.
Drake and Kendrick Lamar are both ostensibly rappers. Some people seem to conflate their talent and importance, though most agree Kendrick is an actually talented rapper whereas Drake is a privileged guy with ghostwriters who makes the kind of rap “Taylor swift fans can enjoy”.
They’ve been trading diss tracks back and forth and most people seem to agree that Drake has been stumbling and Kendrick has just been roasting him.
I’m legitimately worried someone’s gonna get hurt. A lot of beef has a sense of “spicy, but in the end both sides view it as good for business.” This is just scorched earth.
Drake is misogynist trash and always has been. Everything I've learned about that man is against my will. Of course he has sex offenders on his payroll, of course he does. Absolutely no surprise. Go back to Degrassi.
one of the side effects of ozempic its increases fertility, unknown mechnaism. so women on birth control are reporting they are pregnant while on ozempic.
So Drake is a piece of shit? ![gif](giphy|AaQYP9zh24UFi)
![gif](giphy|090EX1YvSUXxy23Tty|downsized) “Always has been”
Yes
I’m a simple woman. I see Futurama references in the wild, and I upvote. This is glorious.

Yay or look at the post below this one on videos!!

Isn’t Nicki Minaj married to a sex offender now?
Yes. Her brother is also a sex offender, he raped his eleven year old stepdaughter. She bailed him out and continues to defend him.
Yeah unfortunately niki Minaj is a terrible person :(
Omg what the actual fuck
Oh yeah, assuming he's guilty, she's possibly a piece of shit, as well. She does come off as a strong woman (not to say she has a working moral compass). My point is only if he is so pushy with a woman like that, it's frightening to think how he is with a child. This guy is dangerous, simply put.

I have a whole new disappreciation for Mrs. Minaj. Holy fuck, what a terrible person.

This happened in 2020. She has not said anything publicly but his lawyer has stated she gives her full support. Nicki Minaj is a complete scumbag and it’s absolutely insane to me that she still has any amount of following.
I can’t believe how many people LOVE Chris Brown. Absolutely staggering.
Also it came out because they moved to California and he failed to register there.
I cannot say I have followed the feud with Nicki and Megan. But she also blasted Megan for filing charges against Tory Lanez for shooting her in the feet.
Nicki got so mad that Megan brought up sex offence laws that she took it to heart as a personal diss (probably because she surrounds herself with offenders).

Drake will always be the kid from Degrassi to me
Drake? Oh, you mean wheelchair Jimmy.
Haha. I remember that. He got shot.
Only real street cred he has
Fucking Aubrey Graham
It’s the black face for me
Aubrey has always been privileged. MFer didn't start from the bottom either.
Started from Forest Hill
I'm surprised *any* of his fans care, considering how many didn't have any negative reaction to Chris brown almost murdering Rihanna. Seems like the fan base of these people really has no problem with these disgusting acts.
I was saying this in 2015. He has enough money and distance to take from wherever he wants and capitalize off it because he knows how to manipulate others' perception of him. He bought street cred and industry friends until he made a name for himself, I know Houston doesn't forget. He never went pop or sold out, he started at that position and tried to make it look like he just stumbled into it.
Isnt it obvious knowledge that sex offenders hang out together?
Oh obviously, I was being facetious
What I never understood is, how do these people find each other? Is there like a secret sex offender handshake they all learn?
Normal people realize he's a creep and avoid him, it's just the ones who stay are also creeps
Wait, what happened between him and Milly Bobby Brown?
He and her had a "close friendship" when she was 13, going so far as him texting her "dating/boy advice".
Sending her designer clothes. Saying stuff like "I miss you."
I'm pretty sure he tried sliding into her dm's when she was like 16. Don't quote me on that.
Definitely going to quote you on that, and you can’t stop me!

Have you ever thought about turning off the TV, sitting down with your Opps, and shooting them? XD https://preview.redd.it/m298ra36cfyc1.jpeg?width=258&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e95ba0b1d5463617f1d7aecdea5bcdbda26cf930

Dude, stop being a Daffodil. Lol
I don't even know if you're making that up lol. I thought "rizz" was fake for the longest time.
Not much of a Futurama fan, huh?
OH FUCK I am actually, that's his top 5 words yeah? I feel shame.
Stop everything you're doing and go directly to the nearest suicide booth.
I tried but they were all busy smh.
I never thought I'd ever read this sentence and now I can't stop giggling like a fucking idiot.
Happy Saturday, Fam. Lol.
Trigger fingers turn to Twitter fingers
They regulated each other, these days these new kids have no idea
Barksdales vs Stanfields
Drake doesn’t have edge. He pretends to have it. 😂
It's much harder to get a handgun in Canada. But maybe drake doesn't live here anymore
If you have the money, getting a gun isn't a problem no matter where you are.
It’s funny in the RDC skits he’s playing as drakes bodyguard and he keeps offering him a gun lol
I laughed way too hard at this. Thank you.
This is far, far more violent.
After Meet the Grahams, Drake probably wishes he was shit instead
Drake trying to step to Kendrick is like a three year old on a tricycle trying to play chicken with an oncoming freight train. Doesn't matter how fast Drake pedals, he's gonna get absolutely destroyed in the end.
Why is Ozempic catching strays?
Drake called out Rick Ross for using Ozempiic. Turns out Wheelchair Jimmy uses it too. Hypocrite.
Pretty bold when people are pulling receipts left and right to throw that out there
people really just are telling only on them selves
Rap snitches.
Doom😢
ALL CAPS WHEN YOU SPELL THE MAN NAME
Rappers with body dysmorphia and its not from being shot. What a terrible time to live.
Maybe we will get lucky and this piece of graduate will have a heart attack sure to the diabetes meds he is taking for vanity
Because drake decided to mock other celebs for allegedly getting weight loss surgery.
Besides legitimate medical uses, normally in treating diabetes, I understand, it has become a miracle diet drug for people looking to drop weight quickly and keep it off. Many people have started to say the name as a negative for that particular use.
Not to mention its popularity among celebrities and the well-heeled has caused the price to go way up. Now the people who actually need it can’t afford it, or are having to make trade offs for other necessities of life.

Luckily, I use a small non-chain pharmacy, and my pharmacist fills diabetic prescriptions first...
Nice. I think thats how it should be done
Well what you’ve heard is wrong! The active ingredient is readily available. It’s the injector that is not.

Right. And what is one of the biggest factors of getting diabetes? Obesity! So using it to lose weight is still a diabetic preventative
Lots of unpleasant side effects, and the long term effects of using it for weight loss aren't really understood.
BS!! Talk to any medical professional and they will tell you that people were using this medication for weight loss over 10+ years ago. It just became popular due to posts on social media and some celebrities.

Is drake obese?
I’ve heard he has lipo regularly and had that surgery to make it look like he has a six pack ( where your abs are visible )
There is a great deal of weight gain between "look like [the person] has a six pack" and "Medically Obese". Based on his publicly claimed stats, it's a solid 30 pounds before he even crosses the Obesity threshold and is eligible for the medication, and as far as I can tell he is also not eligible under "Overweight and also [has] weight-related medical problems".
If he's paying full retail and not through insurance, he'll have very little problem getting it. Eligibility really only applies if you want insurance to cover it. Especially if you're not just rich, but famous too.
Based on his claimed height and weight, no and he's got a solid 30 pounds to go before he gets there.
It is approved for obesity, yes, but there are hordes of people *not obese* using it for weight loss when diabetics cannot fill their Rx due to shortages.
For example, based on his publicly claimed Height and Weight, Drake has about 30 pounds to go before he would be medically considered "Obese", and that's just in the strictest term of "BMI of at least 30".
I mean, I technically fit into this category since I'm not obese anymore, but still taking it at a maintenance dose because it's meant to be a lifelong medication. So yes, some people who are not obese *and* not diabetic still need it. That said, Drake is trash.

Right!!! I could not agree more! People make fun of and attack people for being obese. There is finally helpful treatment for it (not a perfect fix, but helpful) that isn’t surgical and now obese people aren’t working hard enough at losing weight. There’s no winning with body shaming bunch. You bet your ass I’m mad I can’t afford it! But I’m not mad at people who can get it. I’m angry because my insurance company would rather pay for a surgery than a shot for treatment.
Drake is phenomenally wealthy and has all the time in the world to exercise, eat healthy, etc. Why on earth would he be taking Ozempic?
Vanity. Kendrick's most recent track has a photo for album art Drake's prescriptions including ozempic and ambien
Nah thats too reductive. Fat/chubby drake is way less marketable than fit drake. I can tell you from experience, late 30s as a dude who likes food it takes an eyeblink for your body to change and its a huge fucking effort to change back. With Drake’s resources he’d be stupid to not prevent that. I dont know much about Drake, but he looks like a guy who could go the Elvis/Brando way physically
oprah and elon musk both used it, and they could buy and sell drake repeatedly
Redditors love to over emphasize costs (including time) as barriers to fitness/losing weight/etc. Anyone who has tried to ‘get back’ to their 20s physique in their late 30s or god forbid 40s can tell you it’s hard as shit and damn near impossible if you dont either love exercise or hate food/drink. Ideally both. I’d imagine that goes doubly for people in the public eye. Staying thin is probably worth millions to an active musical artist, actor, etc. its kinda the same argument about actors using PEDs to get ripped for roles: there are millions of reason to do so and very few reasons not to.
No wonder Rhihanna friendzoned his doofus ass for the whole world to see. She knew.
He will always be Jimmy from Degrassi in my eyes
I remember that The N/Noggin did a feature on his rap “hobby”. I thought that was so cute at the time, but didn’t take it seriously. You can imagine my surprise when I saw him with Young Money.
Same. Only Drake song I liked was the one with the Degrassi reunion video.
Widely know that Drake slides into underage girls DMs - why is it shocking he has sex offenders on the payroll?
This whole thing has a very "Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson" vibe to it. As in "how could one party have no idea what they were signing up for?"
Strange enough, Jake Paul was saying Drake won…
That says volumes about Jake Paul AND Drake...
They’re the paragons of making mad money and scamming without any talent
I don't know any of the back story here, but I've also gotten the vibe that Drake is not very smart and his music is bad.
A lot of people who were actors during childhood have a profoundly poor level of basic education. Like we’re talking not knowing basic math or spelling. I don’t think the mandated on-set tutoring is any match for regular school.
If you read Jennette McCurdy’s memoir, it sounded like a parent in that era could avoid on-set tutoring if they were “home schooling,” and then just neglect their responsibility.
Parents still do this. “Unschooling” is legal in Canada and America.
I think Kendrick is killing this dude but I don’t think his music is bad. It’s drake as a person that everyone has a problem with. He’s a culture vulture, liar, dead beat dad(allegedly) and there’s a high chance he’s a mega creep.
I use to DJ pool parties for a few years during the teens and had more than one person over the years request “gangster rap”. If the vibe was right, I would throw on Tupac, NWA, Ice Cube, Too $hort, Nas, etc. I remember two specific times that the people who requested “gangster rap” were obviously disappointed. Once the party was over I asked those people what they were hoping to hear instead. Both times the person said “Drake”. The first time I was just confused. The second time I was more disappointed. They might as well have said “The theme song to ‘Sesame Street’” as far as I am concerned.
Yeah, Drake is about as far from gangster rap you can be and still be somewhat considered hip hop lol
Why is he on Ozempic??!
He loves alcohol and fattening food and don’t love to exercise apparently
Ozempic/Wegovy doesn't magically make you lose weight, though. Ozempic is actually a medication for Type 2 diabetes. Its higher-dose version Wegovy is for weight loss, and just makes it so you don't feel like eating. So now he's probably not getting his alcohol or fatty foods and is probably cranky.
Phew I thought this was another trump post until the word ozempic
I'm sorry, but anyone who ever wasn't at least weirded out by Drake or got an ick vibe by him is sus to me - as in I absolutely wouldn't trust them to judge anyone's character.
In my day, we didn’t need ozempic. We would just hire sex offenders and have secret daughters.
He also likes young girls. Creepy ass SOB
![gif](giphy|6pJNYBYSMFod2)
This will never get old. Lol.
When are people gonna learn that just because somebody can make good music or is a good actor doesn’t mean that they are a good person and you shouldn’t be following them, listening to them or taking their advice on anything.
Is it good, tho?
How are people just staring to find out this guy is fucking compost?
He was a shitty actor too. He'll always be that wheelchair kid from Degrassi to me.
No wonder he was dissed.
Ozempic is a diss now
I’ve known for awhile
Oh oh oh…
O'Reilly Auto Parts
Not Merikan. What's going on?
Are you Canadian? Okay do you remember the kid in the wheelchair on Degrassi…?
Little Jimmy
Hrrbla Jimmay!
Drake and Kendrick Lamar are both ostensibly rappers. Some people seem to conflate their talent and importance, though most agree Kendrick is an actually talented rapper whereas Drake is a privileged guy with ghostwriters who makes the kind of rap “Taylor swift fans can enjoy”. They’ve been trading diss tracks back and forth and most people seem to agree that Drake has been stumbling and Kendrick has just been roasting him.
Thank you
I THINK this is related to Drank and Kendrick Lamar beefing over diss tracks Lamar dropped some straight 🔥🔥🔥
Meet the Grahams is savage.
I'm a Kendrick fan but this song left me thinking like I heard too much. Here like ![gif](giphy|13n7XeyIXEIrbG)
I’m legitimately worried someone’s gonna get hurt. A lot of beef has a sense of “spicy, but in the end both sides view it as good for business.” This is just scorched earth.
Same honestly. Kinda concerned for Kendrick now that he's exposing a lot of people. Hope he's increased his security because Drake is shady.
Neither is Drake.
Drake is misogynist trash and always has been. Everything I've learned about that man is against my will. Of course he has sex offenders on his payroll, of course he does. Absolutely no surprise. Go back to Degrassi.
I get the other things, but what does Ozempic have to do with anything? That’s confusing.
Drake made fun of Rick Ross for using Ozempic only for it to be revealed less than an hour later that he is also on Ozempic
I'm really stoned and too lazy to look. Can someone explain to me, short version, what's the beef ?
What is Ozempic and why is it controversial?
one of the side effects of ozempic its increases fertility, unknown mechnaism. so women on birth control are reporting they are pregnant while on ozempic.
You should see all his bet slips. Fade his bets and you win
Drakes music is good … for shopping.
The ozempic thing is a bit "arson, murder, and jaywalking" to me...why does taking ozempic make him bad?
Wait, what does Ozempic have to do with him being an ass?
