Rapper Drag-On has finally broken his silence regarding Kendrick Lamar’s controversial music video for his song “Not Like Us”. The video, which features Lamar cruising through the streets in a luxury car while rapping about his success and wealth, has sparked a heated debate in the hip-hop community.
In a recent interview, Drag-On shared his thoughts on the video, expressing his disappointment in Lamar’s choice to flaunt his material possessions in such a blatant manner. “I just think it’s sad that some artists feel the need to constantly remind everyone how much money they have,” Drag-On stated. “It’s like they’ve forgotten where they came from and who supported them along the way.”
Drag-On, who rose to fame in the late 90s as a member of the Ruff Ryders hip-hop group, also criticized Lamar for not using his platform to address more pressing issues in society. “There are so many important issues affecting our communities right now, and instead of using his voice to speak out on those issues, Kendrick is focused on showing off expensive cars and designer clothes,” Drag-On lamented.
Fans of both artists have been quick to weigh in on the controversy, with some defending Lamar’s artistic freedom and others siding with Drag-On’s critique of the video. Regardless of where one stands on the issue, it is clear that Drag-On’s reaction to “Not Like Us” has added fuel to the already fiery debate surrounding Lamar’s latest release.
As the story continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how Lamar will respond to Drag-On’s comments and whether the controversy will have any lasting impact on his career. One thing is for sure, though – Drag-On is not like us when it comes to holding back his opinions on the matter.
