Druski reveals why he feels more at home with rappers than other comedians
Druski, the viral sensation, recently shared that he feels more comfortable around rappers than comedians, as they make him feel more like a “real” person. In an interview with XXL, Druski opened up about his career trajectory and revealed his preference for spending time with artists, citing a sense of camaraderie and lack of competition compared to his interactions with comedians.
He mentioned feeling a stronger sense of friendship and community with many big-name artists, making it a natural fit for him. Coulda Been Records, the label he founded, has also helped him forge relationships within the music industry, with artists finding his comedic talents appealing.
Druski’s comfort around rappers extends to rapper scions like King Harris, son of T.I. and Tameka “Tiny” Harris. The two recently buried the hatchet at Quavo’s Huncho Day celebrity football game, where they were seen laughing and joking together, signaling a resolution to any previous conflicts they may have had.
The charity event, hosted at Quavo’s high school in Atlanta, aimed to raise funds to prevent gun violence. The event drew a crowd of sports stars, both past and present, and raised $50,000 for The Rocket Foundation, in addition to supporting various other charities.
In a previous incident, King Harris had expressed intention to confront Druski for using the phrase “standing on business.” The confrontation occurred at a video shoot for Druski’s single “Standin’ On Bihness,” featuring Snoop Dogg and DJ Drama. Despite King’s attempt to assert ownership over the phrase, it had been previously used by both Druski and Drake.
Druski humorously recounted the encounter, mentioning that King attempted a stand-off but was thwarted by heavy security at the shoot. The incident highlighted the ongoing banter between the two, adding a layer of humor to their interactions.
Overall, Druski’s preference for spending time with rappers over comedians sheds light on his dynamic personality and ability to connect with diverse audiences. His camaraderie with artists and involvement in charity events underscore his multifaceted career in entertainment and his impact on the music industry.
