hell nah. the last i've heard from 40 was when rapgenius reached out about kanye's contributions to 2 birds 1 stone. they're very selective with their interviews which is why i was really looking forward to that PND interview with the breakfast club.

if he splits from ovo, then he'll definitely be the one to listen to about how the label operates. and i think the pressure around his artists not consistently doing big numbers is what pushed this "playlist" aka compilation tape from the label



so far gone doesn't get enough credit for its choices of instrumentals and samples. he put me on lykke li. he hasn't tried to touch that type of artistry since he's blown up which is surprising. a redux of so far gone instead of take care/nwts with views would have been really interesting.

I would say Take Care is the closest he's got to SFG

Take care is a masterpiece imo

Meek didn't call out Drake for "ghostwriting in general" he said "Drake dont write his own raps!" and gave out several reference tracks for rapping. And then 40 went on twitter to respond.

and its very hard to believe Drake has ghostwrote for anyone considering everything we know about him. Its not like he's known as some R&B writer. PND and Weeknd have given him many R&B songs.

and i think its clear QM gave drake flows as well as lyrics. A full verse? We'll never now but Nickelus F already confirmed he wrote an entire verse for Drake, and its safe to assume Hush has done the same.

we have reference tracks for fall for you type and ready for you, so it's not that hard to believe.

I would say Take Care is the closest he's got to SFG

take care is an absolute masterpiece.

insane tape.

Tentception

This nikka be buying verses and songs wholesale and flipping them for writers credits.

Barbitrage.....

It makes perfect sense though, not to mention it's a good idea, financially.

Tent writer writes a verse, gives it to Drake. Drake sells verse, claiming--directly or indirectly--that he ghostwrote it. Drake gets a big cut of the fee for the verse. Crumbs go to the tent write. Rinse and repeat.

Wouldn't shock me at all if that was what was happening.

Exactly. And when has that happened lately? They stopped marketing Drake as some writer for the masses a few years ago. They tried to market him as a songwriter at first

How does someone even make it this far not writing their own raps?
Blows my mind.

What blows my mind is that these accusations have been out for over a year and there's proof, but no one presses him to address it.

he's a hard enough interviewee to get in the first place, no media outlet is going to risk addressing his most sensitive/obvious gaffe

 

[KravenMorehead™]

I clearly remember nikkas was really saying Drake wrote for Wayne back then

i think that "so and so is a writer" shyt is lies music companies use as starter kit promotion for artists sometimes. It may be true in alot of cases but how do you discern? They could throw those accolades on anyone...

Well he doesn't really do interviews.

I don't know why anyone thought Drake should spit on a song called RICO to begin with...'Yeah, it's a track for those who been through a case, or an indictment....I mean, not really a RICO, but I'll talk about probation and the DA's office..." 'What will Drake talk about"?

.........

"some arbitrary shyt that makes the streets fukk w/ him"


same thing as hoppin on 100 w/ game, even though game is, you know...

At least he could've been on some Rozay shyt, a bunch of bullshyt bars....but they are HIS bars.

Instead, he outsourced the writing to QM...and QM wasn't credited for it either.

Drake is a boss first
Actor 2nd
Rapper 3rd

He dont have to write

There's a whole book about it... The Song Machine...and the biggest fraud is Taylor Swift.

"Hey guys, remember years ago when I was talking about writing your own lyrics in relation to Drake....well now it doesn't apply to him because he's a creator."

Fred.

By reading this tweet you would have thought drake was prince or r kelly
