Jemele Hill Says Kanye West and Drake's End to Feud Sets 'Great Example'

Kanye West and Drake are putting their years-long feud to rest — and that's music to Jemele Hill 's ears.
The Jemele Hill Is Unbothered host, 45 weighed in on the rappers' recent reconciliation in a chat with PEOPLE Every Day 's Janine Rubenstein, and explained she believes the two are setting a good example in a hip-hop culture that often glorifies violence.
"We have seen in hip-hop, unfortunately, some beefs that really have escalated, and to the point where it's costing people their lives," she says.
"To see Drake and Kanye resolve their issues, even Drake and Meek Mill when they resolved their issues, I think that's a great example for other young rappers to follow."

Hill says that while she understands hip-hop is, by nature, a "very macho" field where "a lot of people talk big and that's part of the salesmanship," it's important to make clear that diss tracks "should never be taken to the streets."

"Considering how big Drake and Kanye are, I wasn't necessarily forecasting that, but at the same time, you have to watch how you talk and what you say to people," she says.
