I do think you want to troll but there must be a meaning to it for you to carry it on for the amount of years you do

over again

damn shame for someone who worked with stevie wonder, francis and the lights, 3000 and alicia keys for his first two albums
13399386, ever since Pusha bodied him...

I can’t take him seriously

add me to hater club...




13399412, am I crazy for feeling deep disappointment over this?
Posted by double negative, Fri Aug-14-20 12:18 PM
the sports aspect is fun, Drake making fun of himself is fun, the throwback promo shot in the white suit is nostalgic and fun

my problem is how fucking tone deaf it is with the framing.
this nike commercial passed off as a music vid opens with him rolling up in a giant luxury car to the nike HQ to spend each shot as a rapping nike model - then there is the shot of him shopping in an empty nike store.

I get that the song is about distracting yourself from being in the moment where uncomfortable emotions might exist

I'm not suggesting they make a song about protests, covid or the election

but

at the very least, I wished they expressed some damn awareness about the vibe of things. People are losing jobs, people are worried, shit is bad and these dudes is hoping around celebrating capitalism, consumerism, and excess like shit aint real in the streets for damn near everyone.


but...there is the angle where it could be argued that the video is doing what the song title is suggesting. Be entertained and laugh now...cry later once this distraction ends.
Which, still, I think the overt consumerism is lame, but I can get with that reading.

13399444, Naw u ain't but everybody don't want to be bombarded in reality 24/7

13399479, It’s just a fun video
Posted by Heinz, Fri Aug-14-20 04:27 PM
Little shots at Pusha and little shots at Ye. The whole Nike shit to me is more shots at Ye. The way they treat Drake over at Nike is way diff than they treated Ye, meanwhlel he’s jet skiing on their pond at the HQ. The cliche thing most people say is trying to recite the numbers Forbes or Yeezy tweeted about his business which was basically Donald Trump type claims on his business. If you fell for that nonsense but only thought his social views were crazy then you gotta adjust your lenses.

Oh NBA too
