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

[spliz]

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.

bro I know about reference tracks. I used to write them. lol. but what I'm saying is. rappers def get sent songs. the songs will have the beat. hook. all that. the rappers will just plug their verses in. especially if it's needed by the label. but when it comes to nikkas just taking everything? on some rihanna shyt? nah. I seen it happen. and I've done references for people. but it def aint something EVERYBODY does. and I know some legends in the game.

 

[Mr Clean]

That's a WHOLE lot of artists to absorb to raise one's power level :aubreycell:.

They're gonna hear Drake coming like

 

[Stacker Pentecost]

yall need to stop comparing nikkas who write they music to The Drakes

End fukking thread cuz it's ridiculous lol. "B-b-but his music keeps getting better and better."

BUT HE DIDNT WRITE ANY OF IT NOT EVEN THE FLOWS ARE HIS

Everyone can stay on top for eight years with concentration camps full of writers and producers churning out hits, going through soundcloud and YouTube to mine fresh talent and preventing other artists from getting on.

 

[onelastdeath]

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

cant wait until this bloodthirsty jew gets blackballed for good

Well not EVERYBODY of course lol. Yeah but you know. Drake has BEEN doing this. And has said so interviews and songs. It's weird that people are tripping now. It's very funny. Dude NEVER tried to hide it.

 

[re'up]

Majid Jordan are some goofy looking nerds.....I fukk with their music though, all their projects since that 2013 EP has been dope as fukk to me. The evidence regarding Drake and OVO has been long documented on here, interesting to see inner circle artists 'breaking rank' in a sense.....

 

[Ms. Elaine]

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

Right...Kanye.

"It's not the same, they don't say they're the best rapper!"


Nas had ghostwriters

 

[Stacker Pentecost]

i don't count hotline bling cause they switched up the whole beat, concept, production. It was a totally new song compared to cha cha

 

[CouldntBeMeTho]

Hip hop is spooky brehs

That shyt be killing me man. Just fukking be like "oh shyt I ain't know this goes on so much" instead they start switching shyt up and all that. One minute it's "nobody should do this!!!" Some shyt comes out about their favorites and its "well... Well.... They don't have corporations behind them saying they're the best"

well. what I will say. is he got big headed to the point where he started believing his own hype. there was always speculation. and he has bragged about being one of the cats who writes his own music. he even insulted cats who don't at one point. he also has compared himself to a lotta greats thruout his career. its funny cause I started off with this opinion about him. and he slowly started to gain my respect as he got further in the game. now all this proof that he's just a pop star comes out. which is fine. but we don't need people apologizing for it in this game. it sets a bad precedent for the future. especially since he's considered the top young face of the culture right now. I want young nikkas in the game writing their music not just from a credibility perspective. from a money perspective as well. get them ASCAP checks. offset these shytty 360 deals.

 

[RichYung]

Right...Kanye.

nikkas sit in threads and openly discuss all the writers he has around and nobody says shyt. Lmao
