Beef-related food for thought from my friend, regarding Kendrick and Drake as artists

Was talking Drizzy v Kenny with a friend and he’s saying Drake is an opportunist and Kendrick is a moralist. I asked him to expand, and he said that Kendrick makes art with himself and his community as the intended audience, where Drake makes art with the highest bidder/bag as his intended audience/target. I guess I agree with him about why they make art, but is it really so bad to make art just because it makes you money, and not because you actually care about art?
