Earl Sweatshirt calls Drake a vulture

Earl Sweatshirt has called Drake a "vulture" who profits on the talent of lesser-known artists. The Odd Future rapper's comments were related to a video Drake recently posted of himself dancing to 'SKRT' by underground rapper Kodak Black. Upon seeing the clip, Earl took to Twitter to write: "drake found kodak black? smh welp". When fans then suggested that Drake's championing for new artists could be a good thing, Earl proceeded to say that Drake "can be a bit of a vulture on young rap n-ggas and I don't want lil kodak to be a victim of it". He added that Drake's "overall statement isn't 'check out this new shit I heard'" but instead is "always self serving". Earl continued: "The line between paying homage and wave riding is blurry so is the one between giving criticism and hating." By Devon Pyne for RAPstation.com
