Drake’s Fans Warm Up To “Subway Drake”

Drake is coming out from experience with Fake Drake to another one with “Subway Drake.”

Drake’s fans recently discovered Pinny MH’s resemblance to Drake through a viral video shot at a subway.

The Latino has been trending since then, especially with more people seeing him as Drake’s lookalike.

Pinny MH on TikTok now calls himself “Subway Drake,” but his profile clearly shows he is not out to fake the Canadian singer.

“Just a simple guy, put on the spotlight. Not an impersonator,” he wrote.

However, the “Subway Drake” appears to be savoring the moment.

No dull moments anymore. The poser has done several videos of recent where he is dancing. One of them could pass for a ‘Thank God it’s Friday” TGIF video where he is dancing with many cheering him on.

“I didn’t know Drake was touring again,” one follower commented. “The real champagne PAPIIIIIIII…,” another one hailed him.

Drake had also posted a slide with five pictures, including that of the “Subway Drake.”

“Really went from trying a ting to running things…Went from seat 28D to my name on the wing…Talk about a upswing,” the Canadian singer captioned it.

The caption is what some of his followers regard as an inspiring piece. “Keep upgrading and never settle for less,” a fan re-echoed.

Fans’ Comparisons

@funoau actually “thought that was drake,” and he is not alone in that confusion. “I didn’t know Drake had Puerto Rican blood running thru his veins,” another follower said

Others are catching fun with the scenario “Lmao the subway papi…,” one laughed.

Beyond the appearance, some fans are also spotting similarities in actions. An earlier performance with the watermark – “this is how Dominicans roll,” had a fan burst into laughter. “This is hilarious bc Drake would actually do this…,” he said.

But then, there is an age difference – “I just realized we would love to see your teenage pics to see if you really looked like drake lol,” one person requested.

Still curious about what Pinny MH could have looked like at Drake’s age, one follower asks – “Do you guys have kids? I wanna know what they look like lol.”

As if in a game of spot the difference, for @julianoof2022, weight is it, “if you lost weight bro, you’ll be the next Drake lol.”

For @moonangelbabe, watching his videos, “It’s like seeing another version of drake…this the real champagne Papi.”

What Can the Trend Accomplish for “Subway Drake?”

Some Drakes Fans are already calling for the two to appear in one video

“We need the papi twins both in action.”

“Subway Drake’s” vibes are surely getting attention “this dude about to blow up all over social media,” one said.

“We need more of him, omg” another follower Betttayyy solicits.

Already, some brands have started reaching out to “Subway Drake” for discussion. One is from @_beedev -“Hello! Do you have an Instagram account? I’d like to reach out on behalf of The Shade Room.”

And Drake’s lookalike dropped a response – “Check your IG messages.”

Many more are waiting to see where development would land the “subway” Latino lookalike of “God’s Plan” and “Trust Issues” singer, Drake.

J. Prince: “Being Brutally Honest” with Kanye West Led to Peace With Drake

J. Prince has the title of “Houston boss” for a reason. The CEO of Rap-A-Lot records is not the kind of man to pull punches when it comes to business. That’s what you can expect from someone involved for more than thirty-five years in the Houston scene, the Mecca of Southern rap. The man makes things happen, simple.

The Convincing J. Prince

While the music executive helped Drake see “the bigger picture”, he also brought Kanye West to the light. Or helped him see the light. Or maybe forced him to see the light. While Prince denies this, Twitter certainly has its opinions.

To hear Prince tell it to Billboard, the words between himself and West were part of “an interesting conversation”. Prince says the alleged use of force is “the furthest thing from the truth.” Prince continues:

“To me, that moment was what I called an ‘anointing moment’ — because none of it was planned. It wasn’t planned where we had that meeting in that particular church, but me being a man of God, I couldn’t deny the invitation to actually meet him.”

“From there, I kept it real with him. I spoke some words that came from my heart — and Kanye, he acknowledged it. He said, ‘I ain’t ever had anyone ever talking to me like that.’ He was acknowledging me being brutally honest with him. I felt another level of bonding with him at that particular moment.”

It must take great skill to get through to the enigmatic Ye, but it seems that Prince did just that. Regardless, the Houston executive brought the two superstars together for a massive event. The Free Larry Hoover benefit concert is set for 8:00 p.m. PT (11:00 p.m. ET) tonight, live from the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. With construction presumably completed, the even promises to be a real shock-and-awe performance from two of hip-hop’s paragons.

The event is free to watch live on Amazon Prime Video and Music Twitch services, as well as the Amazon Music App.

On Monday November 8th, J. Prince shared a video of him with Kanye.

According to Hype Beast, The DONDA rapper met with J. Prince at the Rothko Chapel in Houston, Texas. There was a video posted by J Prince which revealed West standing side by side with Prince, as ‘Ye reflects on his past issues with the Toronto rapper. The caption reads,

“I met with @kanyewest [last] night in Htown at the Rothko Chapel… Movement thinkers dream of a better tomorrow, a bigger picture, longevity choices and humbling themselves to forgive… I met with Ye to pass on the message from my brother Larry Hoover… He would like to see peace between the two of them.”

“I’m making this video to address the ongoing back and forth between myself and Drake. Both me and Drake have taken shots at each other and it’s time to put it to rest. I’m asking Drake on Dec. 7 to join me on stage as a special guest to share the two biggest albums of the year live in Los Angeles with the ultimate purpose being to free Larry Hoover,” Ye said. “I believe this event will not only bring awareness to our cause, but prove to people – everywhere – how much more we can accomplish when we lay our pride to the side and come together.”

The Champagne Papi – Ye Beef

The beef between the two started back in 2009 after Drake called Kanye “the most influential person on his sound”.  After Kanye cut Drake’s sample verse from the studio version of ‘All of the Lights’, the two have been butting heads.

While Kanye Drake have been at it for over a decade, the two most recently came for each other this summer during the releasing of their albums, Donda and Certified Lover Boy, after Ye leaked Drake’s address.
