Earl Sweatshirt recently spoke about his impression of Drake. In an interview with The New York Times, Sweatshirt called Drake “grandma nice” and spoke about an argument that he witnessed between Drake and Tyler, the Creator’s mother. In the interview, Sweatshirt also spoke about his impression of Canada.
“It was crazy,” Sweatshirt said when asked about a recent visit to Canada. “Canadians are weirdos, though. They are so nice, overbearing nice, like grandmother nice. Toronto is like a city of grandmas.”
When reminded that Drake is from Toronto, Sweatshirt was also asked if Drake is “grandma nice.”
“Dude, Drake is grandma nice,” Sweatshirt said. “He was at Frank Ocean’s show in [Los Angeles] and got into an argument with Tyler, the Creator’s mom. I left and came back in the room, and she was apologizing to him for how she came at him, and he was saying, ‘It’s all love. I love you, mom. I love moms.’ Drake loves moms.”
This isn’t the first time that Sweatshirt has spoken about his impression of Drake.
“Drake, that’s what I’m excited about,” Sweatshirt told MTV in a video published September 4. “That fool’s on fire right now. Shouts out. I don’t think you get the same imagery that I do when I say the name Drake. I think about him in some fucking leather pants with some tight-ass shoes on and some sort of soft material shirt with a funky collar, like not a regular collar…Every time I think about Drake, it’s a stunt, like [he] is doing something wild.”
During the same interview with MTV, Sweatshirt also spoke about Drake’s interaction with someone’s mother.
“I met Drake,” Sweatshirt said. “I don’t think he really fucking knew who I was and it was a very hectic scenario ’cause he was getting pressed by somebody’s mom. Long story. Anyways, fuck with me Drake.”
Sweatshirt’s video interview with MTV can be seen below.

Earl Sweatshirt Addresses Rick Ross’ Controversy With Reebok
In his NYTimes interview, Sweatshirt also addressed Rick Ross’ Reebok controversy.
“Rick Ross,” Sweatshirt said. “If he was everything that he rapped about, he’d be the worst coke-dealing mass murderer ever. People got mad because he said something bad on a cool song. That was ridiculous on Reebok’s part. You picked up Rick Ross. He’s cocaine. That’s what his entire career is.”
In April 2013, Reebok announced their severing of an endorsement deal with Rick Ross. The announcement followed public protests by many people, including members of women’s rights groups, including UltraViolet. The protests came due to Ross’ lyrics on Rocko’s “U.O.E.N.O.,” which were interpreted to suggest rape.
RELATED: Earl Sweatshirt – Doris [REVIEW]
Sweatshirt got it all backwards. Drake is one of the toughet niggas alive, starting out in a life of crime while Sweatshirt IS grandma nice. Dude is soft as ever. He mad because Drake about to sell at least 750k copies opening week.
Wrong, dentalbitch.
Drake’s from Canada. CANADA!! He ain’t about that life.
Drake was part of a gangster group in canada. Earl is a soft nigga, drake is tough but lovable to girls.
Are you retarded, pussy boy? This fool was on Degrassi, he didn’t deal with shit
Say Whatever you want Sweatshirt, you sold about 65k albums first month, Drake may double that first week.
thats still more than french montana, tyga, ace hood rich gang and most likely more than 2 chainz will sell first week too
This nigga is a weirdo and it sounds like he is gay for Drake.
He just mad cuz the heist is still selling more than him a year later.
FUCK WUTANG. DRAKE can get yo momma to suck his dick
Wrong, groupie.
Right HATER
DK:
Right HATER

Lol at all you dumb niggas thinkin numbers matter
drake is soft as the top part of a babys head after birth, SOFT NIGGA
keep your mouth shut u little pointless faggot
say what you mean bro
fuck earl SHITshirt
Shut up, faggot. Come up with a better nickname
Fuck Earl and his shitty music. His garbage shock value music got old super fast & dude seriously only has one flow. I’m not a huge Drake fan but talking shit about all Canadians is some igorant shit. I’ll make sure to spit on this loser if I see him in my country again. Fucking loser.
I hear spitting on people makes you the bigger person and not the butthurt one.
coming from the biggest weirdo of them all and his whole weirdo posse…
Y’all got it all wrong. Nothing is wrong with being nice! Y’all take kindness for weakness. You all have flawed logic!!
Nothing Was The Same is going to be album of the year.
we shit on the usa everyday
=)
haha do we? I’d love to hear how we do that. After living in the US for 4 months recently I’ve got nothing but love for Americans. Seattle was a blast. I met nothing but good people all the way down the west coast from Seattle to LA to Vegas and back up.
“I think about him in some fucking leather pants”
Pause
Most lyrical song on his album is tuscan leather.
What has that got to do with Earl picturing him in leather pants?
Drake goes hard with leather pants thats what.
#NEW #EXCLUSIVE OFF #THESCHOLAR – https://soundcloud.com/sychopath/black-suits
that means he got raised well by his mother and has respect for other older people, like anyone should
he got the most fucked up hair line ive ever seen smh
Once Again Hip Hop DX uses a misleading headline to make you think that rappers are dissing each other.
STOP THAT SHIT
Its the only way that this sad site can get views. Fuck them.
WHY if me, the Ja Rule pawns, my sons dentaldamboy & drake runs rap, Yessir, YEBO, the racist fuck, tracklist man, quoteman and others ARE STILL HERE
sweatshirt a skinny little faggot bitch
NWTS has finally leaked, AND yeah, it’s a contender for album of the year! Nothing but FIRE!
Deadline for album of the year is september 21st, so yeah no. Drizzy moved it back because he knew he couldn’t compete with kendrick.
Drake is about to sell 1.2 million first week. Birdman just asked me to set up the celebratory party for the milestone. YMCMB stays winnin.
you should set up one for Ja Rule Pain is Love 2 15 million sold…
Big nigga bout to start BIG things shit Birdman couldn’t do
MURDER INC OIL COMING TO A GASOLINE STATION NEAR YOU
Another lie from dentalbitch.
stop lying,album sucks and im a drake fan…Take care was better
If “305 to my city” was replaced with “5 am in Toronto” or the “the motion”, I’d go so far as to say NTWS could be a classic album. To me that’s the one mediocre track…the sample and the hook are annoying.
It’s in the same ballpark as Take Care–an extremely solid record. I need to listen to it a few more times before saying whether it’s better or not. He’s stepped it up since Thank Me Later.
Fav.tracks after one listen:
Tuscan Leather
Too Much
Pound Cake/Paris Morton Music
From Time
Connect — whoever produced this is a fucking genius! I’m guessing 40?
I’m done.
I was expecting a lot out of 305 to my city like drake would rap about the miami heat, getting rejected from the post game interviews after game 7, and greatness and it turns out its one of the worst song and doesnt even have a verse in it.
First drakes a faggot.
Second Earl or crossdressing dorris is a fuckin faggot. and a weirdo. I mean the nigga had to put on a skirt and halter top to get anyone to notice his moms took him off punishment
Third this niggas moms grounded him for a year so he couldntbe in Odd Future with the rest of those upper middle class suburban black kids.
Fourth and most importantly—–HE,ALONG WITH THE REST OF ODD FUTURE ARE TERRIBLE RAPPERS.
“Doris” one of the best albums of the year. You probly still like lil wayne.
yoson: doris one the best albums of the year.
Ill bet you Doris doesnt finish top 15 in album sales this year.
^^Why should sales matter?? If you use that to judge an album’s quality than you are an idiot.
Yes you can use it to judge an albums quality because album sales show how much people like it, aka quality.
^so Vanilla Ice is better than KRS One right? because you know more ppl bought Vanilla Ice
or Lil Wayne is better than Nas right?
Lil Wayne is better than nas. I dont listen to nas and i have plenty of lil wayne
Carter 3 and 4, that was dope
Real ppl like real music “the jig is up” lol
I been listening to wayne for 15 years. His new shit is crony as hell
yea, the shit he putting up now is trash, only good album he put out since 2008 is tha carter IV but ill take old lil wayne’s music over nas’ old stuff any day.
You’re a fucking idiot.
For those who have spent their time listening through Nothing Was The Same, between take care and NWTS which one do you think drake rapped more in and which one do you think was better?
If you took 5AM in toronto and put a decent track behind of it, and put it on NWTS it could of been an instant hit.
MY TOP TRACKS FROM NWTS
(5AM in Toronto would been top 3 for sure if drizzy put it in there)
1. Too Much
2. Pound Cake
3. Tuscan Leather
4. All Me
5. The Language
6. Wu Tang Forever
7. Connected
8. Started From The Bottom
9. Come Thru
10. Worst Behavior
11. Furthest Thing
12. From Time
13. Hold On We’re Going Home
14. 305 To My City
15. Own It
Drake is so nice he allowed Jay-Z to appear on NWTS, even tho Jay is old and irrelevant. And because Drake knows that Jay is weak with the pen game, Drake wrote Jay’s verses for him. So yea, Drake is nice.
Did you write this just looking for replies?
someone needy for attention
No i’m not looking for attention i’m just saying that Jay-Z, Eminem, Juicy J, and Kanye West are all irrelevant and need to retire. Drake is nice for letting Jay-Z come on his track and make him look good.
Didn’t Jay just sell a few million copies of his album? How is that being irrelevant?
First off. I made a mistake. I meant Dr Dre instead of Juicy J needing to retire. Juicy J is dope. What I mean by Drake being nice doesn’t mean being soft. He’s a tough ass gangster in his childhood. Drake is nice to let Jay Z on his album even though he sold hardly any aside from the copies he himself bought.
PRAISE JA RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I Got a confession guys. If drake wanted to make out, i probably would
dentalbitch continues making up lies for attention.
drake is soft…and would still whoop earl biglips ass
Does Anyone else hate the beginnings and ends drake puts on all of his songs?
lol no
At the beginning he keeps on putting some random guy talking from like a tv show or something and at the end its just a minute of sound no singing or verses.
Nothing Was The Same Selling 400,000 copies first week
I cant wait for a Dwight Howard Response track to Tuscan Leather.
This talentless kid is a clown, Toronto is a zoo man… people getting shot in broad daylight, kids shooting up malls…c’mon son… It’s cool, you don’t like Drake..most Canadians don’t…but because you don’t like one nerdy actor turned rapper 45 million of us are all the same? You’re fu**ing name is Earl Sweatshirt…how can we take u seriously?
follow at noles506
no
Toronto is one of the safest large cities in the Americas. Being from a city with a high murder rate aint cool man, especially when the people being murdered and doing the murders are YOUR people. Grow Up.
How did we get to a point when being a safe city is a bad thing?
there was 41 homicides in toronto in 2012 stfu
im wonderin if any of you took the time ti listen to earl wtf
When you comment you do not want responses. no responses means its a solid statement.
not a solid statement
I’d smack the shit outta this kid
NWTS is dope
NOT!!
nigga just need to chill
breathe.strech.shake
I just won Earl and his Sweatshirt from Diddy in a dice game. Its true, he wrote it on a bit of paper, signed it “Diddy” and everything!
Word to Big Bird
odd future type of dudes to talk shit, get beat up, then sit there like ” What you do that for ?”
I’m the type of nigga to take that as a nice compliment
Drake the type of nigga to make good music
No, he’s not.
drake the type of nigga to have a girl lick his ass and watch her licking it in the mirror
