Why Drake CAN’T Win: A Tale of Two Courthouses

Well, I guess I did have something to say. Poetry and poetic justice is all around us

OTHER VIDEOS I mentioned:

The best way to get my attention is to leave a comment (I read them all)
My name on Reddit is "losermobile" for a weird reason
My Letterboxd address is @Professor_Skye

Please, educate me Professor! No, I do not get the "Kendrick Lamar is from Oakland; Ottawa is where Drake is from."

I've been wracking my brain! Enlighten me!!

(Only 5 minutes in ... Please forgive me if I am jumping the gun)

The fact that Drake said “tell em that he’s fucking young girls that’s a gift from me” should be enough evidence for the courts to throw this shit out

[ashc.]

Started with the shot of the courthouse, ended with a predator behind bars. Then the culture celebrates outside…. Is this the real poetic justice🤔

Slight correction: As a strategist I often work in the legal field. Thanks for the shout-out 💜

Drake and Kendrick went at each other. One man came out on top. Drake is not a victim. His failure to accept this is what fuelled this gimmick.

5:33 THE COMPTON COURTHOUSE IS THE FIRST SHOT 🤯

I find it funny that Kendrick is somehow able to not be involved in this mess. This is a 1v1, Drave vs Himself.

You cant win, when you dont know how to lose

[Derapy]

The first shot of the not like us video is a courthouse and now that video is going to play in a courthouse because drake is suing over the song bro

You couldn’t write this

It’s insane

[YerpDerp]

Ironically, every move Drake has willingly made after the battle has been worse for his image than anything Kendrick said or did. We are finally seeing Aubrey. It might sound corny but Kendrick legitimately neutralized Aubrey's superpower. Which was the persona of Drake. This isn't Drake, it's Aubrey. And hey, Drake is a great actor, and extremely talented. But it's nothing more than that, an act. Drake was the acting role, and the songs were the scripts. How many of those scripts were written by other people can be debated forever.

But I have always kept myself from calling him a pdf file. I just need more proof. Not saying it isn't plausible. But what I can say with all certainty is he is a groomer. No adult should, nor has any legitimate reason, to PRIVATELY befriend, hang out with, or party with underage teens. There is WAAAAY too much smoke, with way too much evidence. Plus, you can easily find the videos of his yacht parties, that Kendrick mentioned in 6 16, where there are TONS of drunk underage girls there. And as a father of two teenage daughters, and someone who is also just a decent human being, there is NOTHING anyone can say to condone those things. Even if there were just a couple examples, sadly there are far more than a couple. I don't think it's coincidental that Drake likes to party in countries where the age of consent is lower than it is in North America.

But I won't ramble on forever. Drake's downward spiral is in many ways historic, and astonishing to watch if nothing else. Lol, Love the content as always. Hope you and anyone who happens to read this have a wonderful, safe, and positive night/day!

I can honestly say I’ve never been this excited to hear a French professor talk about rap industry litigation, let’s

[tarantinosthfilm]

professor skye has such an under appreciated style of speaking, barely see any cuts in the video edits and clearly such a creative individual who comes from passion every time. It’s insane how he’s able to connect subjects so seamlessly using repetition and other literary tools. Really can’t think of any other online personality right now who can replace the niche style he brings

[LWD.Spectre]

The battle really is being immortalized

[TURBOMIKEIFY]

I didn’t even consider the Compton Courthouse being a hidden message until you mentioned it. I genuinely hope this (caseless) case is broadcasted.

[RobertoRodriguez-phft]

The structure from the video is The Martin Luther King Monument. Kendrick brought people together at the Martin Luther King Monument

[klave]

There’s definitely comedy lmao. In the area of LA that I live, there’s billboards advertising an injury attorney called Drake the Lawyer. Slogans include “Delivering poetic justice” and “Got injured? Squabble up!”

[camillagilmore]

I think one of the key things one has to remember about defamation cases is that the claimant has to have a reputation that can be defamed in order for defamation to exist. Drakes own actions have caused his reputation indelible harm well before Kendrick dropped this track; he already was known for being inappropriate with underage girls, he was already known for keeping his children secret and he was already known as a culture vulture in hip hop. Kendrick didn't say anything that wasn't already believed by a wide range of people or simply demonstrably true and so this cannot be defamation as Drake, by his own actions, no longer has a reputation that can be defamed.

Nobody is catching more strays in this beef than Adobe Acrobat, they didn't ask for this

[lazprayogha]

It's OK Professor and Doctor, it still looks OK 😀

[mattdienstag]

“Tangible evidence he is a creep” exactly and that’s enough for me.
