drake is not shy when it comes to posturing

he just does it in a less masculine way

basically taking the same idea but marketing it more to females
Drake brags an insane amount, especially on his new release. I'd just rather hear a rapper brag about how successful and talented they are, rather than the fact they are tough and straight.

It's still everywhere yeah, but not as much. I was kind of speaking specifically about the macho bull****, while modern hip hop is still competitive in nature I think rappers have found other ways in which they are better than everyone else.
It's not like I don't love some of these artists either, I try to keep art and politics seperate, but it's still nice seeing some change.
