Days after Ebro Darden blasted Drake for not speaking out about issues affecting Black Americans, Elliott Wilson is calling the Canadian rapper out for snubbing Hip-Hop media.
“Moment of clarity: No disrespect to Lil Boat. Yachty’s convo with The Boy was comfy and had some cool moments. I was more so clowning the comedy shenanigans with outsiders to our culture. It would be great to hear Drake speak to us again. Even if it ain’t me,” he tweeted.
It is not the first time Drake has been accused of picking and choosing who he sits down with. DJ Akademiks made similar claims about Drake and several other mainstream rappers.
“Ain’t nobody gonna say it but I’m gonna say it,” he said at the time. “Yo J. Cole and the rest of y’all big rappers no wonder y’all get sh-tted on by Hip Hop outlets man. Y’all get so big in the game … they use the culture and they use all these blogs, not saying you need to like, I don’t care if they do an interview with me, but I know a lot of journalists in the game and they won’t speak up and a lot of ’em still really hope to get an interview. I say f-ck all these n-ggas.”
He continued: “Big Ak made it on his own, fuck these n-ggas in the interview. I just look at n-ggas like J. Cole when I see you doing some sh-t on ESPN but you wont do an interview with a n-gga in the culture, you won’t hop on Million Dollaz Worth of Game, you won’t hop on muthaf-ckin’ Drink Champs, you won’t be with Joe Budden or something like that. I look at it as some weird sh-t.”
