Basically, Drake sent a message to Fantano saying "your existence is a light 1, and the 1 is because you're still alive" and Fantano responded by making some fake DMs that depict Drake sending him a recipe for some vegan peanut butter cookies. He made a very tongue in cheek video where he went through the recipe and called Drake a very kind and thoughtful person for thinking of him and sending him such a nice recipe, and in response Drake posted a screenshot of his messages to Fantano saying that it'd be better if he was dead.

Dude could have buried the hatchet, or he could have shut up and taken the playful ribbing or whatever. There was zero reason to leak his actual DMs - in fact, doing so makes Drake look significantly worse than if he just let sleeping dogs lie. But in response to Fantano calling him a kind and thoughtful person, he decided to show his whole ass.

I'm surprised Drake has Anthony Fantano's number as Anthony Fantano is not a seventeen-year-old girl.

Anthony Fantano is a music critic, perhaps one of the most widely known ones, so Drake was trying to roast him using his appraisal scale.

A bit of an overreaction I'm feeling a strong 4 to a light 5.

Fantano uses a 1-10 scale but he uses words like "light", "strong". For example he'll give an album either a light 7 or strong 7.

Drake makes albums that even his fans don't agree with.

He wants it both ways. He wants to be able to not try as hard and just coast his later half of career but also wants to be praised to the highest level for it.

I think some these rappers actually believe the lines like "I can be the best without even trying" and don't realize everyone held in high respect in the majority of circles actually are trying. It's just cool to "pretend" you're not.

Drake always been the guy proving that money and fame doesn't stop you from being overly emotional about petty things. And not in a cool self aware way like some artists pull off.

Seems like the only mistake Drake made was interacting with a fucking idiot like that in the first place.

Are you seriously suggesting posting a youtube video about fake dm sugar cookie recipes was the good move here?

What am I saying? Of course you do.

Nah truth is he has more money than you do

Playing with his name is playing with his money

Nobody is risking their livelihood for your entertainment

Typing lies about someone that they didnt say isnt trolling its legally libel

Drake just gave him a nicenasty chin check is all he could have done more

Like Birdman had to tell CTG to keep his name out of his mouth

Once you start letting people play with you they dont stop

Anthony literally tried to save Drake from real embarrassment and Drake said "nah, Imma show the world"

The way you're trying to flip this for Drake is insanely blind. There will be tons of Ls in your future if you can't understand what Drake did wrong here. All you need is the most basic understanding of how internet culture works to understand why Drake made every wrong move in this situation. Anthony could of been the bigger man and kept that behind the scenes. But then Drake decided to expose that Anthony was being the bigger man. It's so mind boggling it's hard to even understand Drakes intent with releasing the real DMs.

When I seen Anthony's video with no context. I thought "This is really weird, but if Drake actually did this, it's pretty cool".

I don't know what world you live in where saying someone sent you a Vegan cookie recipe while being super nice about it is an insult. How you can flip that into him messing up Drakes money and it not being Drake messing with his own money is beyond me.

nah, the mistakes Drake made were insulting a person's worth just because take person gave his opinion on his music, and having too big of an ego to show his DMs because that person didn't react in the way he was hoping.

Fantano was just having fun with the situation.

it would be like if I PM'd you, just insulting you, and you photoshopped it to look like something ridiculous, just to mess around.

Fantano is literally going to continue giving Drake albums mid reviews and Drake will continue being salty about it. Fantano made a little joke about Drake's salty DM and Drake got all in his feelings about it.

Drake DMing Fantano out of the blue all salty is the saddest thing here and you shilling for Drake is laughable, though I shouldn't be surprised given your track record of laughable posts.

The only one who got "chin checked" here is Drake, and he did it to himself.

Even when you give that example and leave it open ended, it makes me think you'd photoshop it with malicious intent. But he didn't even do that. He literally took the least violent path.

I will say when Anthony responded to the leak, it was funny how he fantasized about them having a bro moment lol. That was cute.

if Drake didn't show the PMs, no one would have looked bad in this situation, but now he comes off as petty and being trash at insults.

In the actual rap community, respect is a big deal. A reporter should know that but I get also why casual observers wouldnt. What Im also betting is that there were other conversations we arent privy to as well.

Normally when someone comes out swing like that they are reacting to a lot of things but mainly we only get to see the last thing.

Lol. You're so full of it. I don't see how you can be a hip hop head and not see how unhip hop what Drake is doing is. And also pretend like Drake has been living by those 90s-2000s rules to begin with. Drake has pretty much broken every image trope Hip Hop had. And not in a cool way like Kanye did back in mid 2000s.

Backing Drake in this goes against everything you think you're protecting. It's like you want hip hop to become the high school drama that Drake brings to it.

If anything, you sound like the visitor or someone who came into hip hop around 2010
