Another very important topic Drake addresses in “Nonstop” is his biracial identity. Drake, who was born to an African-American father and Caucasian Canadian mother, has over the years been targeted by a number of his peers of not being black enough. For example, in American rapper Pusha T’s diss track “The Story of Adidon”, he makes reference of Drake’s biracial identity and goes ahead to use it to mock him.
In the first verse of “Nonstop”, Drake raps about how his light skin has made it very easy for his detractors and enemies to point their fingers at him and say he’s isn’t black enough to be a 100% bonafide member of the ‘hood’. He goes on to admit he is indeed light skinned but that in no way takes away the fact that he’s “still a dark n***a”.
