After Criticism After weeks of mounting criticism from fans over his silence on the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine, Drake has finally spoken.
The rapper is one of many musicians who signed an open letter calling for the US government, a major ally of Israel, to push for a cease-fire to at least temporarily end the conflict between the two sides.
It is the polar opposite of another celebrity letter being circulated. That one re-affirms American support for Israel and thanks President Biden for supporting Israel. How do you feel about Drake finally speaking up?
