      Well apart from how tired the “this thing is bad, this thing is good” meme format is, I think there are credible allegations of grooming?

      Actress Millie Bobby Brown, aka Eleven from Stranger Things, revealed when she was still a minor that Drake and her used to text each other. Particularly concerning advice about Drake’s similar experience being a child actor.

      In 2018, Drake reportedly dated, then 18 year old model, Bella Harris. However there are posts of them in intimate positions as old as 2016, where she would’ve been 16 years old.

        Holy shit. Thanks for sharing that information, I’ve been trying to stay away from social media, and I’ve been very much OOTL.

      I’m in a position to call him a groomer. I feel comfortable saying straight up he’s a sex pest. There’s credible allegations all over the place. What I can’t speak to, and I have to implore you to look into, is that many black people in America consider him a cultural appropriator based on his adoption of vernacular and accent that aren’t his own.

        I’ve been trying to stay away from social media, and I’ve been very much OOTL. But I’ve researched about this meanwhile, and holy shit, this was not in my bingo card.
