Earlier this week, Bas got here to Drake’s protection towards Ebro Darden’s feedback on the newest episode of Apple Music’s Rap Life Review.

According to Darden, he’d been pondering attending an occasion in Toronto, the place the “Nokia” rapper was scheduled to look. However, he feels his critics of him prior to now may trigger some points. In his opinion, a variety of artists — particularly Drake—and their fan teams “don’t even love hip-hop like that.”

He added, “You’re just fans of an individual. We are having hip-hop conversations about something that has literally saved our lives, put food on people’s plates, and a culture that has been [an] inclusive culture of all different types of ideas, and music, and expression, and all of these things for f*cking 50 years.” Darden later shared a clip of the conversation on his Instagram. Not lengthy after, Bas fired again within the feedback, writing, “My two cents, Ebro. Drake is among the most, if not the most, inclusive of artists [in] our culture.”

The Dreamville rapper believes that Drake has “pushed countless rappers to the forefront, dancehall artists, afrobeats artists, R&B artists, reggaeton, older artists, [and] newer artists.” He continued, “I don’t get this ‘culture’ narrative that’s persisted since the battle. If it’s the Canadian thing, Toronto [an] hour flight from NYC lol.”

Bas added, “I’d argue their culture and ethnic makeup is more akin to NYC than pretty much any city in the States. NYC, Toronto, [and] London are a triumvirate culturally. Surely it’s not his pen? He’s arguably the greatest writer of a generation. So what is it?” Judging by the replies beneath Bas’ put up, a variety of of us appear to agree with him.

“@bas bro they hate the man and that’s a fact. They need him to push narratives so they gon keep talking about him, but that just shows how much of an influence he is to the culture. And now they’re downplaying what he has done for the culture by calling him a “Culture Vulture, “ like wtf did he steal?? Drake, the greatest of his generation period!!!” one individual wrote.
