        He had commentary when he was an unknown but now that he has a huge platform he’s neither said or done anything publicly to further any cause of Black people?? Sad thing is some will believe this bs excuse

        He was raised by his white mother. Black dad was MIA, so I consider him white. Js.

        Right so this blackface photo is totally out of line. He doesn’t get a pass.

        I got denied a job as a graphic designer 10 times. I guess I should take a picture in black face to show my struggle. Sounds logical

        🤔🧐 #Drake would never use the #holocaust to #express a #political #statement because he knows how #uncouth that would be. But he used #blackface.

        Why is this even news? Because their record sales are falling so they need something to bring it back up and make them relevant. No one cares about drake or pusha T.
