Wow. Purely coincidental that someone got shot, I'm sure.

looks like a drive-by; really unnecessary

Spoiler:

Drake‘s Toronto mansion was the scene of a drive-by shooting early Tuesday, but the Canadian rap sensation is safe and cooperating with a police investigation.

Toronto Police in a post on X, formerly Twitter, said the shooting at Bayview Avenue and Lawrence Avenue in the city’s Bridle Path district left one man with “serious injuries” and having to be treated at nearby Sunnybrook Hospital.

During a morning press conference outside Drake’s home, Inspector Paul Krawczyk of the Integrated Gun and Gang Task Force said officers were called to the residence and found a young man with a gunshot wound.

“That person was working apparently as a security guard at the residence, he was standing outside the gates in front of the residence when the shooting occurred,” officer Krawczyk said. He added no motive for the drive-by shooting was known or could be revealed.

Krawczyk also reported video footage from security cameras outside Drake’s house had been secured and appeared to capture the shooting incident. “We have individuals who obviously performed the shooting, who were seen in a vehicle. I do not have a description of the vehicle or the suspects at this time. Again, it’s very early in the investigation,” he added.

This is bad if some nutjobs decided to roll up on him to shoot him. I don't like dude, obviously, but no one wants to see anyone get killed over this crap

yeah, especially cause it's a security guard just doing his job.

might have something to do with the weeknd maybe. his manager house got shot up last week

I remember when folks were saying that Drake and Kendrick would go on business as usual after everything ended. Not the case at all.

Drake won’t be able to go into other cities like Atlanta or anywhere in the West Coast anymore. Those days are over. No one is gonna want to be associated with him when he visits. That pedo and colonizer stench is never coming off.

It was all good just a week ago.

Kendrick is winning in every way possible.

Nope, it's not. That's a brand you wear for life and folks don't take kindly to dudes who mess with kids.

That being said, I don't wanna see someone killed over this crap. If Drake committed any sex crimes against underage girls, let the law handle that, like Puffy is currently being handled (at least I hope. America's justice system is rigged for wealthy predators to skate). But otherwise, all things aside, someone trying to shoot him is taking this too far. He took his public flogging and will forever be known as a pedophile. He doesn't need to die over this.

I hope J Cole is having a wonderful, stress free day. As much as he got clowned, he was smart to walk away from this mess.

Bro can't even watch a game in peace without hearing that song, they're playing it all over TNT. Imagine trying to catch a game and being called a chomo going to commercial break.

There's no recovering from this.

Besides it being a heater, there's a specific reason for a lot of that ubiquity, too. Kendrick was not only the better rapper and lyracist in this battle, but he ran laps around Drake on the digital/internet side of things:
