The battle between Drake and Kendrick Lamar wrapped up several months ago, but rappers are still being asked about it in interviews — like RZA was recently.
Killer Mike is the latest rapper to be asked what Drake should do next, and he had some advice for him.
"I mean, you do what Hip Hop has always done. You take your L’s like you take your W’s, you dust yourself off, you get back to making dope music. That’s all," he told GQ. "Rap is pugilism and poetry. You’re going to go through battles. I wouldn’t over personalize it. I’d just get back to satisfying whatever Drake fans are wanting."
"The best has taken some losses," he continued. "Ice Cube handed my favorite group in the world [N.W.A] a loss, but that didn’t stop Eazy-E from discovering Bone Thugs-N-Harmony and making the biggest comeback ever. That didn’t stop Dr. Dre from making The Chronic."
Mike then said some plain old female companionship would help Drizzy.
"I don’t think he’s going to stop making music and go throw himself off a bridge. He’ll be okay. Just chill. Go hang out with a few girls for a year. Come back, come back swinging," he advised.
Is Mike giving sound advice here?
