"Obviously he didn’t listen to any Drake music" — Internet reacts to Karlous Miller saying Drizzy did not struggle like Kendrick Lamar did

American comedian Karlous Miller recently made an appearance at the Club Shay Shay podcast wherein he talked about Drake being too easy to hate on. In a snippet of his interview posted on the podcast's Instagram account on November 12, 2024, Karlous Miller was seen commenting on Drizzy and comparing him to Kendrick Lamar.

Miller told host Shannon Sharpe:

“Kendrick put his momma van on his album cover. He struggled for real. ... Drake ain’t have no struggle in his life. He was doing good in Canada, dancing with his White friends, Jewish uncle, they having Bar Mitzvahs, good investments, you feel me, his momma family got that check.”

Netizens were quick to react to Karlous Miller's comment on the One Dance rapper and took to X to express their opinions on the same. Dismissing Miller's perspective on Drizzy and his struggles, a user tweeted:

"Obviously he didn’t listen to any Drake music. Drake told you what his struggles were. I guess since it’s not something you can identify with, it’s easy to invalidate."

"Does he know Drake personally?" an X user questioned

"The Drake hate is getting a little carried away now. That man is one of the GOATs," another X user mentioned

"And growing up struggling in poverty is better because …. ???" an internet user said

Internet users also called our Karlous Miller for assuming that Drizzy hadn't struggled:

"This antisemitism, y’all are assuming he grew up rich not because of anything that he or family told you, but because he’s Jewish. imagine if we all judged each other by the color of their skin idk tho," an X user tweeted

"That’s funny. His mom was a public school teacher. Degrassi made him 50000 before CANADIAN tax which end up being 36000. She got sick when he was 15 and he became the breadwinner. Dropped off high school. And after Degrassi while trying to become a rapper worked in a restaurant…" another X user commented referring to Drizzy's journey.
