While every month is black history month, this month is special due to the fact all chuds have to legally abide by the government's set status. This month is dedicated to... DRAKE! Aubrey "Drizzy" Drake Graham (born October 24, 1986) is a Canadian rapper, singer, and actor. As a figure in popular music, he has been credited with popularizing R&B sensibilities in hip-hop artists.

Now... why is this month dedicated to Drake?
- Super Bowl
Kendrick Lamar performed at the Super Bowl. Now you might be asking why he's included as a reason. Drake basically put this guy on the spot, prior to this Kendrick was famous in rap spaces while Drake was a name everyone knew. When Kendrick Lamar initially dissed Drake, it led to a whole snowball effect that eventually led to hit song "Not Like Us" dropping. Full timeline if you're wondering about the history of this beef: https://www.vulture.com/article/drake-kendrick-lamar-feud-explained.html Not Like Us is a diss dedicated directly at Drake, and it's his most famous song. It revolves back around to the same debate about if Kanye put Taytay on the map. Kendrick got awarded a multitude of grammies for this false mediocre song all because of Drake, Kendrick was appointed to play at the Super Bowl because of Drake, and while performing at the grammies AND the Super Bowl he still sang the song about Drake. Everything about this guy revolves around Drake.

Mostly explained in the previous paragraph.
- New Album
Drake is about to drop a collab album with famous rapper Partynextdoor. I'm guessing most of the tracks are gonna be love songs and maybe two will be rapping. The linked tweet gives a full rundown on how to celebrate black history month with Drake.
- Beautiful Music
Drake has a very nice discography, with hits ranging from Passionfruit to Jimmy Cooks he's very diverse in the areas that a black person can properly sing in. You could probably find a Drake song for any occasion. Some of my personal favorites (it should be very easy to see his diverse discography with these picks):
- Pioneer in black culture
Kendrick reversed hundreds of years worth of black activism in one 30 minute show. If Drake was on that stage, we would've somehow gotten Obama a 3rd term. Since Drake also has some jewish heritage, he's loved by many in jewish communities. Around my very southern part of town, the stores usually play only white songs and the occasional Drake song. I've heard Drake referred to as "one of the good ones" before. All in all, the people love this guy.
I have themed my profile accordingly. Have a nice night and remember to support real black artists (not fakers like Kendrick LAMEar).
