Majid Jordan reveals OVO's secrets on Hot 97(How they find writers,Writing Concentration Camps,etc.)

[onelastdeath]

You idiots were not using the pop star argument til the references came out.

He's whatever they need him to be to defend him.

First he was purebred rapper/poet and people were hating because he was from the suburbs.

Then it was "no reference tracks exist and people are trying to slander him out of jealousy"

Then "he may have borrowed some cadences and hooks but so what because everyone does that"


Then it was "some reference tracks exist but that doesn't prove he didn't write his stuff"

Then Abel says he wrote a lot of Take Care and it's "everyone gets inspiration from somewhere"

Now we know he runs sweatshops and it's "he's an artist who's not afraid to try new things"

 

[jadillac]

Its interesting you have this stance now when...






You used to post ALL the time about drakes "writing prowess" and used it as to why you thought he was so dope.

Now all of a sudden you don't care and it doesnt matter

@CrimsonTider - the streets need to hear your respnse

 

[spliz]

nikkas think these rappers just lock theirselves in the studio with the producer and engineer and write records??? yeah maybe when they're TRYING to get on but nah. There's LOTS of people putting in on these records.

writing concentration camps bruh? nikka taking usb's and picking songs like grocery shopping with no creative input. son I don't know everybody in the industry. but I know cats. I'm not blind to what goes on in the industry. there's def nikkas who this happens for. but for a rapper trying to be credible as an emcee? shyt I don't respect that shyt AT ALL. how could anyone? that's not even considered "help". nikka just taking shyt. nahhhhhh. can't rock wit that. and I'm surprised by u bruh cause I know for a fact u used to respect BARS. there's really no defending Drizzy at this point. of course there's a lot more that goes in to the album making process than what u said. what Drizzy is doing isn't even what would be considered a collaboration.

drake is a bytch made frauuuud

 

[ATI]

coli posters using a well known fact from 3 years ago to vent all their frustrations about drake still running the rap game

 

[spliz]

I can't wait for Kendrick's references to drop....


I'm almost positive he received a lot of "help" on "Swimming Pools" and "Alright". Those songs are too catchy for someone like him.

man shut up. u aint positive of shyt. the fact u think those songs are out of his realm shows u one of them late people to get up on him.

 

[ATI]

Pharrell wrote "Alright," evidenced by the fact that it's the only song from TPAB that people actually like irl.

That bullshyt I just read was so vile and disgusting, it's almost like reading about how someone got tortured in a concentration camp.


What I'm going to suggest, and I'm dead serious: Ban Drake from being discussed in the Booth for LIFE, or at least a month long ban since it's Black History month (and he's not even full black or from America, so it fits). Or, at the VERY LEAST move all threads to a sub-forum in here and give it a disrespectful nickname like "Maple Leaf Mili Vinili"...


And I'm dead ass serious.


Letting Drake continued to be openly discussed in this form is like letting nikkas openly talk about Child Porn, shyt is disgusting and if The Coli doesn't do something about it, they are just as complicit.


I've been listening to hip hop for over 27 years and this shyt is like literally blasphemy.


Something has to be done about this shyt, at least a month long ban as a statement, and if it's not yall might as well shut this forum down, because it's no longer a legit hip hop forum if that bytch is being discussed.


Dap if you agree.


Thread starter I'd appreciate if you maybe added something to your first post regarding this? @Pier7

Aye man. I've been in sessions. I don't know about the concentration camp sensationalized shyt but yeah.... Songs being sent in to artists (reference tracks) with them having no input are just the same. This shyt HAPPENS man. This shyt will come out more and more this year. That's why most rappers didn't trip about it. You rap right? You should know this shyt.

 

[Pier7]

Kirby sqaud trying to spin this and throw Kendrick a couple strays

According to ya tho, even if K.Dot hired 20 dudes and flew em out to Compton to write his album while he cruised down the block in his 6'4 bumping them bangers off the usb.

Its all fair and in the game baby

 

[Ms. Elaine]

Of couuuuurse but I'd be OK with that. That's fine. I wish more lyricists that had trouble making those "joints" got help on those records.

I would too. I'd just like the see the mental gymnastics these "purists" around here would do to defend it.

 

[Griffith]

cant wait until this bloodthirsty jew gets blackballed for good

Out.

The #1 rapper is LITERALLY, UNDENIABLY surfing Soundcloud for starving artists to invite to "OVOCamp" where they sleep in tents, hand him hit records and beats all for a OVO sweater and the possiblity of a feature or digital EP

 

[Ms. Elaine]

I feel bad for them that they couldn't at least get someone of Kendrick's caliber to go at Drake.

They trying to restore the feeling of their youth (most Coli posters were in their 20s when Ether dropped), but Meek keeps disappointing them.

They're that old...acting this childish.

 

[RichYung]

I would too. I'd just like the see the mental gymnastics these "purists" around here would do to defend it.

They've defended it with other artists in here tons of times. You know how that goes
