Peter Rosenberg issued a warning to Drake about what he believes has been a misstep in the rapper's career.
During the Monday (Jan. 5) episode of The Ebro Laura Rosenberg Show, the radio hosts discussed Drizzy and streamer Adin Ross being sued for their promotion of alleged illegal practices on gambling platform Stake. Around the six-minute mark of the episode, the conversation took a turn when co-host Ebro Darden said he disliked how Drake's career has shifted.
Rosenberg said he "couldn't agree more." No one will believe us. "Everyone will think we sincerely want his downfall. Part of the reason I've been so angry and annoyed about Drake's moves is because he is ruining his legacy," Rosenberg continued.
The media personality added that the five-time Grammy winner is "damaging himself in ways that will become impossible to get up from."
"He'll be one of these cats whose reputation there are two worlds. There's the real world view and there's the view of your obsessed stands who think everything you do is gold," he explained. "But the real world view of him is changing is sort of real time with all of this nonsense. And it's not good."
In the Stake lawsuit, defendants LaShawnna Ridley and Tiffany Hines allege that the platform does "not offer real money gambling," and accused Drake and Ross of being paid to "mask the true nature and extent of their conduct."
Elsewhere, the lawsuit alleges that Stake hosted an internal "tipping" system, utilized to push artificial streams of Drake songs to "fabricate popularity; disparage competitors and music label executives; distort recommendation algorithms; and distribute financing for all of the foregoing, while concealing the flow of funds."
The issues between Drake, Darden and Rosenberg, both formerly of Hot 97, run deep, as the $ome $exy $ongs 4U rapper joked about the cancellation of radio show Ebro In the Morning last month. The rapper also sent Darden a wild DM following the show's cancellation, telling him to "die slower."
