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)
also, his entire case is that being labeled a pedo has caused him significant damage. yet he cracks jokes about kendrick being a victim (even tho he wasn’t) of pedophilia with the mariah carey touch my body line. you believe pedophilia is such a heinous crime yet you make fun of someone who is a victim of such?
@@highwayheroes1454 he also directly called Kendrick an abuser, by Drake’s logic Kendrick could sue him for defamation too. I’m not saying one man’s accusations are more valid than the other’s, Kendrick would look like a chump if he sued UMG over Family Matters, but at least Kendrick didn’t say on record “Drake you should tell the fans that I beat my fiancée”
@@highwayheroes1454he conveniently forgets that people have already been looking at him sideways even before last year. If not for being a pdf file, for acting like a groomer. There's the one with MBB, with Billie Eilish, his constant connection with underage girls then dating them "officially" when they turn 18. There are numerous vids about that, and didn't he try to take down some of them? Like that vid of him at his concert being creepy about a 17 yr old girl? He was very explicit about him feeling a way about her and her age. Yuck.
@@xamp_exclammark this is why the clean hands doctrine exists. do your research. the judge’s job is to take into account every single thing that led up to this point. if you think the judge is just gonna gloss over the accusations drake made in his disses then lol.
I laughed myself silly when he said, "Can you even get arrested for a dime bag anymore? " I was like, "What, dude? "What do you know about that, Sir? "This is one of my top 10 takes on the situation, just because.
Poetic justice for real. 12 years to the day that song came out Drake sues UMG for defamation. The content of the song is about pedophilia but Drake is the one who even told Kendrick to "talk about him liking young girls, it's a gift from me" in an AI Pac voice. Poetic justice on multiple levels
@ “spirit medium I don’t rap brother”. The fact Kendrick said in the heart pt 4 like 7 years ago yall got until April 7 to apologize and that’s the day Cole apologized is wild. Kdot really may be a prophet
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
Yo I'm subscribed to your channel, fancy seeing you here! 😂 Can't wait for more of your takes on the situation. This sh*t is WILD. I ain't neverrr seen a public figure crash out so badly before - especially not in Hip Hop! Drake is proving every single day that he never was as tough as he loved pretending he was. 🫣 The 2nd hand embarrassment I've been feeling as this drags on, is truly palpable, on god. lol
1) the courthouse is a symbol of Compton and its people (especially Black residents, when you consider the MLK memorial in front of it) 2) I’m fairly certain they don’t have to present the video as evidence but merely the song on its own + lyrics
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!
Thank You! I've been saying that there's no reason a grown man should be texting, going on dates with a 13/14 old little Girl!😮 And ppl who think it's okay are weird too! If ppl watch that Nickelodeon Documentary about the producers abusing those kids😮 Drake is most definitely a Groomer. I've fell out with ppl because I said Drake was Creepy & Weird! 💯 You spoke all Facts!❤

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
You know what .. you are spot on. Never really thought about it because his presentations just flow .. even his tangents feel intentional. Definitely the professor experience shining
He usually never does cuts unless his babies need him. It’s all raw and unedited. If you watch his older videos, you can see it and he even mentions it!
If he sues k dot he would counter sue drake which would be a nightmare for him. and he will have to prove the allegations are false and that kdot knew they were false which he can't because he said himself ge planted the stories for kdot. Not to mention there is enough proof of him being inappropriate at the very least with several girls who were underage. So that will only prove it was reasonable for kendrick to assume he was a predator. Baca has been charged with trafficking and plead to child abuse and domestic abuse. Discovery would ruin his career and possibly take away his freedom
I think he's been planning this a long ass time and dropped with precision timing to coincide with a time the culture isn't feeling drake, his contract with umg is about to renew, and I think he was very careful what he said and how it was worded. And yes, I think he knew it would end up in court, because he knows Drake is too petty and narcissistic to just take the L and move on like a normal person.
I think your right. I went through the lyrics yesterday and honestly everything can be explained away. Kendrick was very careful and calculated @toctheyounger
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!”
And just like an Acrobat, Adobe have been performing difficult physical acts such as jumping over the stray shots and balancing by walking the line in the beef 😂😂😂
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.
Is it true that lil baby helped you get your lingo up...and 21 gave you false street cred..also did thug make you feel like you were quote "slime in yo head"..😂😂😂
Tentacion was a really odd one because some of the shit he's done is messed up, but aside from that he was a wholesome dude Either way Drake being involved with his death is hella shady, I want that canadian to go broke already

Like the courthouse angle and the fact that Drake unwittingly put HIMSELF on trial. You do great work and I love your respectful tact towards our culture.
Why Drake isnt suing Kendrick. Google "unclean hands law" and deformation. The principle is basically that the party who is asking for a judgment cannot have the help of the court if he/she has done anything unethical in relation to the subject of the lawsuit. So basically Drake lawyers understand that if he sues Kendrick, his case will likely get thrown out because he literally "defamed" Kendrick before Kendrick responded.🤷♂️

I work for an attorney, and I was about to track him down at lunch tomorrow and explain years worth of rap beef so he could give me an answer. 😂
@@KimiClark19 he didnt go after kendrick because he was already planning on suing umg but he didnt have enough proof (scary hours - red button) but after nlu and how the negotiations were going cause they already lowballled him about the pedo shit and gave hime the ahah moment
We also clearly saw both court houses clearly on your screen too😂😂😂😂😂 still, a big thank you to Mrs Skye for assisting you to that point 😉Thank You. 💯💯💯💯💯
AVAA, I find it funny how you had 2 instagram posts before this. 1st being “I’m not gonna make a video about this…”, the 2nd post being “I’m still not going to make a video about this…”…And then you made this video 😂
He is fully spiralling atm on deleted and it's So sad to see because he is making himself look more of a fool trying to say he's pretending to be black
The more I think about it the more I believe that the end goal for aubrey isn’t even about winning this lawsuit. I believe his goal is to negatively alter Hip-Hop forever. He is absolutely livid, and he clearly feels like he’s on his way out and is considered an outsider anyway. So he doesn’t care about his reputation as he sets everything on fire on his way out. I believe wants there to be tighter censorship on rap albums, and he wants to set a chilling effect on battle rapping by setting the legal precedence for what could happen if the loser feels that the battle went “too far”.
Which would in turn lead to rappers being sued if their lyrics effect a brand or it was literally be censored what can can’t be said or talked about in a song
Drake wanted to be known as a rapper. After the battle, he clearly is a talented Pop Artist. He is angry that UMG enjoyed watching him get a lyrical beat down.
@@ParkerMudsen I do agree with the idea Drake fears(or knows,depending on how you wanna frame it) he is irreparably cast out of hip hop and is trying to go out with a bang. About the he wants censorship part im not too sure,he would not be the first person to sue without thinking about precedents set all that hard. This is not a defense but an observation,i dont think Drake is very smart.
Hey! aava. Just a suggestion for the lighting- try moving the light slightly further away from you if possible. I would also suggest raising your light stand up and tilting your light source down. That should help out with that flare you're getting in the bottom right corner, and soften the shadows. Love the show. Thank you for making videos!
R. Kelly was found guilty in NY Federal Courthouse as well! Just to add a poetic justice reach -- “Before you figure that you’re not alone ask what Mike would do.” - Kendrick referencing You Are Not Alone written by R. Kelly
Always so refreshing to hear your thoughts on subjects like this. You are so honest and so respectful and the art/poetry that you pull out of hip hop culture is so beautiful.
Loved a comment from an earlier vid I saw of which mentioned how this situation that Drake is in is a Streisand effect and boils down to another failed attempt for Drake. AVAA
Hey man, this is my first time coming across your channel. you got me in one move😊. I appreciate the transparent commitment to the discourse, not just to be talking (what they talkin 'bout, what they talkin 'bout, they ain't talking 'bout nothin. I don't think anyone has seen anything as historic as it is bizarre as what we are witnessing now so I do appreciate your perspective. I'd like to find out more about what type of art you actually do now. OK man, keep it up (pause) I love it
First video i have seen of yours, you had me a little in the beginning when you were like I'm a law guy but not a law guy. But your breakdown was incredible and insightful definitely earned a sub! ❤👍
The fact that you’re able to deliver a fresh and original take on this subject everyone is talking about, that’s the part about this channel that makes it so amazing. AVAA
The lawsuit also said that Drake was home and ran to help the security guard when he got shot. If you watch Toronto news from that day, you will see that he was out of the country. 🙄
I’ve been really enjoying your perspective on things lately. I like that if it’s a topic a lot of channels are discussing, you try and offer a different outlook. Great work!
That sense of unity and triumph that Kendrick and his team brought about, needs to keep going. Also, Drake apparently has the self-awareness of a pebble
You don’t think the court house shot was Kendrick nodding at the fact that he knew Drake’s next move. He pushed the fact there was a mole in the camp and according to the filing Drake contacting the legal team of UMG while posting round 2 every where. I think Kendrick was mocking him before he knew the joke
AVAA im very much enjoying this drake meltdown as everyone as a collective is metaphorically jumping him including some of my favorite content creators that were named in the case (RDC), maybe one day Drake can look back and think what he did was bizarre, but that day looks much more unlikely every day that passes
You are definitely a part of "US". Your respect for the culture and the love of it makes you us. It's not black white brown orange or whatever skin color. It's *CULTURE*
He’s not a part of the culture. However, he respects the culture and is welcomed in the culture. I’m black and even I am not about the culture. You’re right, it’s not a skin color thing but neither him or I are part of the culture. We just have great respect for it and he has a clear understanding of the culture.
Drake is literally trying to surgically remove "the dozens" from black American culture. Drake: yo momma so fat she bleeds mayonaise! Kdot: yo momma so fat she fell in love and broke it. Drake: Antisemite!!! Defamation!!! I'm scared and my butt hurts!!! Call my lawyer!!
Your respect for how you just handled saying not like us just earned you a subscriber. I like the fact you understand you're not us but still have respect for us.
Professor, with the work you do and the insight you give us all. I could care less about your social class or the colour of your skin. You are definitely part of the culture.
A tale of two courthouses, perfect mirrors One where the innocent and victimized are cycled through to perpetuate societal injustices upon the "undesirables." The other, where the seemingly untouchable elites are finally made to see justice for the harm they have wrought upon others. Life reflects art reflects life.
Please, educate me Professor! No, I do not get the "Kendrick Lamar is from Oakland; Ottawa is where Drake is from."

@@KimiClark19 he didnt go after kendrick because he was already planning on suing umg but he didnt have enough proof (scary hours - red button) but after nlu and how the negotiations were going cause they already lowballled him about the pedo shit and gave hime the ahah moment
18:33 "either i am like them or there is no them" 🎯
“It’s literally a Drake PDF” 😅😂😅😂😅
😂😂 damn it
I love that you’re cresting space for the geeks to shine man thank you
I love your take on juxtaposition of the courthouses. Just like in The Rose that Grew From Concrete, you we're able to find the beauty.
This .. I love this 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 the rose that grew from the concrete is a favourite piece of work and thought
@@justalffie"in this world, concrete flowers grow" - there's a Kendrick bar for every situation at this point!
@@Hawkmoon1981 he most likely was referencing Tupac's The rose that grew from the concrete
@@justalffie oh, he for sure was. That's what makes it even better. 😊
it’s crazy, scary, spooky, hilarious how kdot went full batman pre-, during, and post-beef 😂
We also clearly saw both court houses clearly on your screen too😂😂😂😂😂 still, a big thank you to Mrs Skye for assisting you to that point 😉Thank You. 💯💯💯💯💯
The final showdown... Ottawa vs. Oakland... nobody would have expected it but here we are 😂
🦉
👻✍️
😂😂
Drake screwed up so hard it managed to loop back around to art. Sensational
Just a rich person weaponizing his lawyers because he got called out.
Going against richer people with better lawyers 😂
I like that low key jab at what’s the dirt. 😅😂😅
Its funny to think KENDRICK knew about this lawsuit months ago and still dropped GNX 😂 *SAVAGE*
AVAA, I find it funny how you had 2 instagram posts before this. 1st being “I’m not gonna make a video about this…”, the 2nd post being “I’m still not going to make a video about this…”…And then you made this video 😂
Like I said, I found the poetry!
I love it
"he's essentially abandoning hip hop for gambling"
Which is CRAZY. I hate it.
I hope you review some old Ab-Soul albums in the future, like Control System or Herbert. good stuff.
These videos reacting to Drake's moves reminds me to play "Not Like Us" again.
I love a good Whats The Dirt stray, that goofy Newfie making us Canadians look bad when drake already working overtime to do that
He is fully spiralling atm on deleted and it's So sad to see because he is making himself look more of a fool trying to say he's pretending to be black
@deedeedussard "Just call me a culture vulture" 🤣🤣🤣
You not really canadian
@@jamierobinson8116 I'm more Canadian than Drake
@@CantBanDaSnoManThat sounds racist.
The more I think about it the more I believe that the end goal for aubrey isn’t even about winning this lawsuit. I believe his goal is to negatively alter Hip-Hop forever. He is absolutely livid, and he clearly feels like he’s on his way out and is considered an outsider anyway. So he doesn’t care about his reputation as he sets everything on fire on his way out.
I believe wants there to be tighter censorship on rap albums, and he wants to set a chilling effect on battle rapping by setting the legal precedence for what could happen if the loser feels that the battle went “too far”.
Which would in turn lead to rappers being sued if their lyrics effect a brand or it was literally be censored what can can’t be said or talked about in a song
After the artists are silenced the regular persons microphone is gone
Drake wanted to be known as a rapper. After the battle, he clearly is a talented Pop Artist. He is angry that UMG enjoyed watching him get a lyrical beat down.
Yes! That's exactly how I feel as well. It's his revenge
@@ParkerMudsen I do agree with the idea Drake fears(or knows,depending on how you wanna frame it) he is irreparably cast out of hip hop and is trying to go out with a bang.
About the he wants censorship part im not too sure,he would not be the first person to sue without thinking about precedents set all that hard. This is not a defense but an observation,i dont think Drake is very smart.
KENDRICK was aware of the brewing case, which was being drafted in July 2024
Yea, I think it's possible he got wind of it
Dot does his homework.
A good name is worth more than rubies
Proverbs 22:1
So the courthouse in NLU video makes sense to me now with all this that Drake’s doing.
Hey! aava. Just a suggestion for the lighting- try moving the light slightly further away from you if possible. I would also suggest raising your light stand up and tilting your light source down.
That should help out with that flare you're getting in the bottom right corner, and soften the shadows.
Love the show. Thank you for making videos!
R. Kelly was found guilty in NY Federal Courthouse as well!
Just to add a poetic justice reach --
“Before you figure that you’re not alone ask what Mike would do.” - Kendrick referencing You Are Not Alone written by R. Kelly
Always so refreshing to hear your thoughts on subjects like this. You are so honest and so respectful and the art/poetry that you pull out of hip hop culture is so beautiful.
AVAA was looking forward to this vid professor!
Embracing "the L" is underrated,
Drake's career as we know it is officially OvOver!!
Loved a comment from an earlier vid I saw of which mentioned how this situation that Drake is in is a Streisand effect and boils down to another failed attempt for Drake. AVAA
It's okay, doctor and missus.
Glad you showed props to Absa, only hope you can guide your colleagues on not perpetuating harm and danger to a fellow highly educated individual.
Funny how it's 81 pages
81 just like a Kobe game against the Raptors
Hey man, this is my first time coming across your channel. you got me in one move😊. I appreciate the transparent commitment to the discourse, not just to be talking (what they talkin 'bout, what they talkin 'bout, they ain't talking 'bout nothin. I don't think anyone has seen anything as historic as it is bizarre as what we are witnessing now so I do appreciate your perspective. I'd like to find out more about what type of art you actually do now. OK man, keep it up (pause) I love it
First video i have seen of yours, you had me a little in the beginning when you were like I'm a law guy but not a law guy. But your breakdown was incredible and insightful definitely earned a sub! ❤👍
Prof, F.D said the cookouts closed, but you're getting a plate, trust.
Your set up is great, I love your videos! Thank you to the Doctor and Mrs 😁
When the art is that good, life keeps imitating it. Thank you for the perspective, Professor! #AVAA
The fact that you’re able to deliver a fresh and original take on this subject everyone is talking about, that’s the part about this channel that makes it so amazing. AVAA
Well done Prof! The symbolism in just the courthouses is astounding!
Seconded on the Open Mike Eagle video plug, really interesting peek at the wizard behind the curtain for the music licensing process/copyright
The lawsuit also said that Drake was home and ran to help the security guard when he got shot. If you watch Toronto news from that day, you will see that he was out of the country. 🙄
AVAA “We’re Not Like Them” law slogan had me 💀
Avaa ❤ please don’t ever change the way you make videos. The low tech approach is refreshing and charming
Thank you for the content and perspective❤
I’ve been really enjoying your perspective on things lately. I like that if it’s a topic a lot of channels are discussing, you try and offer a different outlook. Great work!
That sense of unity and triumph that Kendrick and his team brought about, needs to keep going. Also, Drake apparently has the self-awareness of a pebble
Lol a pebble
ironically, UMG is responsible for creating this monster. they spoiled him for 15 years.
You don’t think the court house shot was Kendrick nodding at the fact that he knew Drake’s next move. He pushed the fact there was a mole in the camp and according to the filing Drake contacting the legal team of UMG while posting round 2 every where. I think Kendrick was mocking him before he knew the joke
The ghostface reference immediately made me like the video, the respect for “us” made me sub💯
I’m waiting for your take on this
That's also where he started his career in the video Compton State of Mind. The Compton Court house.
Kendrick turned Drake into a song…but Drake has TURNED HIMSELF into a cautionary tale that will no doubt be studied for years to come
Love when you break this down so beautifully. Thank you!
I’ve been waiting for your take on this. Intellectual breakdown 👏
You’re going to show us how really smart Kendrick Lamar is. IQ level is on 1000.
holy crap your mind is INCREDIBLE. you literally painted a picture in my brain!
AVAA im very much enjoying this drake meltdown as everyone as a collective is metaphorically jumping him including some of my favorite content creators that were named in the case (RDC), maybe one day Drake can look back and think what he did was bizarre, but that day looks much more unlikely every day that passes
Please put the names of the people you mentioned who have done videos of Aubrey's litigation in the description. Thank you, in advance.
I just did. thanks for reminder
You are definitely a part of "US". Your respect for the culture and the love of it makes you us. It's not black white brown orange or whatever skin color. It's *CULTURE*
110% agree.
He’s not a part of the culture. However, he respects the culture and is welcomed in the culture. I’m black and even I am not about the culture. You’re right, it’s not a skin color thing but neither him or I are part of the culture. We just have great respect for it and he has a clear understanding of the culture.
Drake is literally trying to surgically remove "the dozens" from black American culture.
Drake: yo momma so fat she bleeds mayonaise!
Kdot: yo momma so fat she fell in love and broke it.
Drake: Antisemite!!! Defamation!!! I'm scared and my butt hurts!!! Call my lawyer!!
I’m sure it’s been brought up. But the opening scene of not like us has everyone sitting in that line like it’s a jury inside of a mental asylum.
I enjoy hearing you speak. Informed, articulate and fair points of view. 3 second round of applause for Professor Skye 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
*HELLO PROFESSOR I’M FROM LOS ANGELES AND THE MONUMENT THAT YOU SEE THE PEOPLE IN IS A MONUMENT STATUE FOR MARTIN LUTHER KING, LUV YOUR VIDEOS*
Quiet an informative video, great analytical and excellent delivery. Good work, new subscriber here.
Absa's videos were awesome! It was funny asf
I never thought I'll live the day when Professor sneak diss What's The Dirt. Imagine The Dirt and Professor going bar for bar 😂
I feel like Kendrick is a time traveller. Everything he said is coming true. 😂
Your respect for how you just handled saying not like us just earned you a subscriber. I like the fact you understand you're not us but still have respect for us.
its gonna be a party in the courtroom they start analysing that song
Yes. The 12 members of the jury are going to stand up and dance! Wap! Wap! Wap!
Fantastic video, love the juxtaposition. Also love to see casual mockery of WTD & Seinfeld 💯
Wow the courthouse…. Damn that insane…another great classroom lesson Professor
Professor, with the work you do and the insight you give us all. I could care less about your social class or the colour of your skin. You are definitely part of the culture.
A tale of two courthouses, perfect mirrors
One where the innocent and victimized are cycled through to perpetuate societal injustices upon the "undesirables."
The other, where the seemingly untouchable elites are finally made to see justice for the harm they have wrought upon others.
Life reflects art reflects life.
