As Drake’s “God’s Plan” single spends it fourth week at the top of Billboard’s Hot 100, apparently everything isn’t all roses for the Toronto superstar.
Following the release of the “God’s Plan” video last week, Hot 97’s Peter Rosenberg questioned Drake’s intention behind the visual, which saw the 6 God give away almost $1 million to the people of Miami.
“Is it a little bit cheap to use those emotions of, ‘Look at this person in need getting something good,’ and transfer those emotions onto yourself?” Rosenberg said. “I don’t know the last time I saw a four-minute montage of ‘Look at all the nice things I do.'”
Once Drake’s mother told him about Rosenberg’s comments, he felt inclined to call the longtime radio personality and give him a piece of his mind.
“I’ve never heard his Canadian accent that strongly,” Rosenberg explained on Thursday’s (February 22) episode of Ebro In The Morning. “Drake yelled and he was very passionate.”
As Rosenberg described, Drake screamed, “What’s your problem with me? How did you make this a negative thing?”
He added, “I could hear in his voice that this was very clearly the most important thing that he’s ever done. He was clearly very effected by doing something so good for people. That’s ultimately very great for the culture. But, I still would have said the video is not for me.”
After the release of the “God’s Plan” visual on February 16, Drake called it the “most important thing” he’s ever done in his career.
Check out Rosenberg’s original comments below.
He still steals every single thing he does. Lol. Drakes a good reason our culture is utter trash, regurgitated filth.
A jevv criticizing a jevv who then gets angry and criticizes the jevv who criticized him. Are they projecting their self-hatred for being jevvish or what’s the deal here! which one is the antisemite, both? I’m confused!
What’s a jevv?
A member of a certain ethnic / religious psychopathic group known for exploiting other nations and races. You know the ones who claim to be semites.
Allow me to clear up your confusion. You’re the only anti Semite here. You’re welcome.
a hater is always gonna find the negative in the good
Even though Drake has done something good in the video, it wasn’t a self-less deed. He helped them in a difficult situation, they helped him look good for doing it and helped bring material to his music video.
Real talk has become being a hater. The truth is we are at the point people that can’t tell the difference…Drake did do a kind thing and if he truly helped those folks that was dope…However, the marketing is to publicize and show Drake as a man of the people…Its still smart marketing…My personal opinion is that the greats make it appear effortless…Drake makes Phenomenal music period. I feel he has always tried visually to make us accept him as we do musically and that is always the hang up with him…No hate man.
Rosenberg you are a head; these artists give you life. call up all the people who were on the receiving end of drakes generousity and them how you feel. Feel free to talk about their response 😉
Well, Drake sucks regardless. All of these antics are to throw the scent of gay off of him. Dude, it’s 2018. No one cares. We all found out you basically do what DJ Kaled does, which is absolutely nothing on your tracks.
Why does it matter if Drake did these good deeds for himself or the people in the video? People who could use the money, have more. Rosenberg has to chill. He’s gotten g-checked by Hov too. Then takes a private convo and goes on-air with it. Weak.
It was a good video but Rosenberg is right, lots of celebrities do stuff like that without filming it to make a music video. I still appreciated the emotional parts though.
But honestly the song is trash to me, his style from when he first came out seems to have kind of merged with the Mumble rap and whatever current mainstream trends there are, he sounds more like Post Malone than himself in 2010, and I’m just not feeling it
Exactly. People like Keanu Reeves give out millions to charity but they don’t film it to show everybody what they done
Yea these. Pussy types of today despise when you speak the truth
Only trash will have a problem with the video.
Yea and dipshits like you praise yourself pat yourself on the back and schedule an award show for everytime you take a shit kinda just like drake did OMG guys i want to give $1M to charity and OMG guys i wanna be recorded handing it over so i can jerk my tiny gratificationless penis off thousands of times to me handing it over oooo pathetic ass society we live in today cant do nothing good unless someones watching its pathetic and worse than being a leech
You are trash. Human flith. People like you need to die. You’re messing up the gene pool. And parents need to go too for raising trash.
Haha man your retarded and ive raised my own ass since 12 so dont blame my parents for this haha and man i employ 25 people how about you? I help enrich the lives of 50+ people every year thru salaries and insurance from my 2 construction businesses alone and i donate more to charity in a year than you fucking make in 6+ months im sure and whats funny is? I still claim it as MY INCOME so its not a tax write off a gift should not be tax exempt its not a loss to me its a gain so i refuse to claim it as a deduction see thats giving honestly unlike drake or your dumb bitch ass would do you give out of charity and goodness not record it and wear their pain and emotions like your newfound armor that will make you millions in business alocated deals alone you dont do good deeds with expectation of a return its pathetic you do it so you sleep better at night and feel like a better human being so this guys ALREADY recouped his million this quickly i guarentee it and hes ALSO gonna claim it as exempt income so he gets to write of $1M of tax liability while the exposure of the gesture EARNS him millions in additional income because of our brainwashed pathetic ass PC society of babies suckling their mommies tities still well into their 20’s who are mesmerized by this self gratifying piece of shit man if anything and i can guarentee the majority of the world agrees with me at this point attention seeking little crybaby ass bitches like you need to drop off the earth your a bunch of crybaby leeches who bring nothing to the table but a list of complaints because your mommys and daddys told you you would be president someday and instead in reality proved most of you are too dumb and ambitionless to even work at a mcdonalds haha so nah man im gonna be here a while procreate realll well have me 2-3 little ones running around and with my $300,000+ a year income put them alllll thru college and let them run your shit and theirs will keep doing the same for you and yours ya broke bitch and already been married 4 years lol so real soon my friend
Fuck outchea mayn ain’t nobody tryna read that wall of text, fuckin clown.
Sounds like you can’t read well.. outchea mayn? Really? Lol you ass hat.
Think i give a shit if your inbred uneducated half autistic ass dont read what i got to say? Go get the fuck on then you illiterate
Wow. You’re still alive? Lol. I feel for you’re children. Those best buy checks can’t be doing much. Your death would be better for their future.
nah man its called being an entrepreneur i make more in 2 months than your dumbass makes in a year and ive given more to individuals over the past 3 years in the form of paychecks health insurance policies matching 401K plans and charitable contributions to my local animal shelters and local food banks and first responder charities than your dumbass will ever give in a lifetime so enjoy the truth man i got reciepts bank statements and 1099 tax slips to show for days man
You always on some bullshit. Always in the comment section on that high horse. Last time you were crying because someone name called you. Now you are telling someone they should die? Pick a side lame.
Drake J.ews Out Peter Rosenberg
Real spit*…i’d dress up in disguise*give the money to my man’s and have him pass the money out while I was in the cut to make sure it was given*DON’T DO GOOD DEEDS FOR THE WORLD TO SEE And Praise You*
Damn right my brother/sister I love the intention and the idea, but you don’t need to have the world as your witness.. A lot of people do gr8 stuff everyday but they don’t need a camera on their face to do it
I knew it was gonna be the most polite “chew out” ever if it came from a Canadian dude
Selfless or not people are still going to view it as personal gain because that’s just the way it goes when you do something kind and publicize it
What if the whole thing is not even real
Gayke out here yelling at anyone who shows his true side
Ugh! Guys I can’t hold it in anymore!! Huge turd
Peter Rosenburg is a herb, straight up. Anybody rocking with dude is corny as hell. It’s always so painful to hear when he tries to relate to rappers during interviews with them with his stories of smoking weed with his other rich friends on vacation in the Alps and shit.
He’s a jevvish culture vulture, what did you expect?
“This is Drake’s Journey, If his mother is proud, & God in heaven is proud, from the very bottom of my heart that’s good enough.” “It’s his Money, his Video, & his choice of people he gave it to. Thank God we could see the real emotions of People being the recipient of charity so beautiful & great! ??????
After all the ratings for the 6 drake needs to do that in his own hood. fuck Miami, rep ur hood’ help the unfortunate in ur hood and show that shit…… Seriously.. Dooms need some of that love rex needs that tanridge needs that, bout ur doing charity in Miami. Dance a yard before u dance abroad.
DAMN you just made a good point.
Why the hell does it matter who or what hood a person gives to? You sound somebody who’s mad that Drake didn’t give them shit. Smfh
Man people will find any reason to hate I swear.
He spent a million dollars to get his first solo number one single. Only difference is, he didn’t pay radio jocks to get the same result. To be honest, I kind of dig the hustle, it’s an anti-industry move to continue to win in the industry.
real fkn talk
Well done Drake
In stead of criticizing Drake, why don’t you go out and help someone.
I bet they broke! Drake has a career to show. I’m not kissing was but keep getting that money boi. They’ll figure it out
No matter the critics Drake is the best
I fuckin loathe j.ews and this article has not one but two of them..
The man get money. Get with the program, not against it. You come out better, rather then running your mouth. Ha
I like Drake when he first came out because he was different. But now he doesn’t lead he follows what rappers do now. That’s why people love Kendrick more because he leads he doesn’t care what people think and he’s an emcees not a rapper. And besides I can’t stand when they call Drake the 6 God he’s not even close yet. He hasn’t made a classic neither people need to stop the only God’s in this hip hop culture are Rakim LL Cool J KRS One Big Daddy Kane Kool G Rap Slick Rick RUN DMC BEASTIE BOYS Kool Moe Dee Grandmaster Caz And the Father of this Kool Herc. If you don’t know some of theses Legends you need to go and do your history because if it wasn’t for them theses rappers of today would not be around.
Whether you agree or disagree with Drake’s video, I have to say that at this time, its something that needed to be seen. Peter look at it like this, with all the garbage that is currently circulating right now, the video was quite refreshing. We hear people all the time criticizing celebrities about how they should give more, when a lot of them do but they don’t share it. But I feel like they should sometimes. Not as a ‘look at me and what I’m doing’ but to give hope, and excite people’s heart in a very big and great way. To show people its ok to love, share, and unite. Truth be told I’d be doing that same thing all the time if I had the money. Lets not always look at the cynical part but in overall view to be more clear and understanding of what the intentions clearly are. What I got from Drake’s video was true joy with wonderful intentions. Good day! Until. . .
FORGET WHAT ANYONE HAS TO SAY,IM A STRONG BELIEVER……I SAW THE SPIRIT MOVE THROUGH OUT THIS VIDEO….WE JUST NEED TO GET OUT OF THE WAY OF GOD’S HAND..
Thank you, OG. Well said
Drake’s video God’s Plan was great, for me one with MS for 15 yrs., I cryed like a baby. Different, unexpected, when ever I have MS down days, I will always hit the play button for God’s plan.

Dude.. learn to write before you hit the comment section. Typical dumb ass with bad taste in music.
Dickriders comments below…eff Drake, this was a filmed publicity stunt…
Sick people. #devil.
He does something for his people in the f****** Devil’s get jealous f*** them
I found the song corny when it came out. Then I saw the vid and I love the song. No matter how much pub it was, don’t act like he didn’t improve the lives of dozens if not hundreds of people. GTFOH with the hate for a pop star actually using his money and power to help BLACK people.
I get what Rosenburg is saying, but I also get the point Drake was making with the video. It’s good to be humble when you give and not seek attention. I’m sure Drake made the video for a good reason and not necessarily out of arrogance.
Drake needs to stfu with his little silver spoon fed ass, and learn that charity ceases to be charity when you announce it to the world.
Yeah Ebro a Super Hater for that. I don’t care what Drakes motives were for him doing good deeds. If more rappers were giving back to the black community things would improve just a little bit.
