Charlamagne on Drake’s “Summer Sixteen”: You’re Never Going to Be Jay Z

The Drake and Meek Mill Summer beef has continued on well into 2016 with “Summer Sixteen” and “War Pain” still in rotation, and according to Charlamagne tha God, Meek may have outsmarted Drake this time around. “I thought Meek Mill’s newest diss record was fire, and I thought it was six months too late,” Charlamagne voiced. “It sounds like Meek was replying directly to him.

Moving forward, Charlamagne broke down the jabs Drake took at both new and established rappers on “Sweet Sixteen.” As he assured DJ Vlad that “all these new rappers from Toronto want to be Drake a little,” the radio personality also took the time to explain why he feels Drake will never compare to Kanye West. “It’s like relax yo, you’ve never made a College Dropout,” Charlamagne states. “You’ve never made a Late Registration. You’ve never even gotten a Kardashian pregnant.” When it came to his Jay Z lyric, however, Charlamagne said “I understand what he’s saying, but you gotta understand how that could be taken. You could be taking a light shot at Jay Z…You should aspire to be on that level, but you’re never going to be Jay Z. Nobody is.”
