Let me expand on the tension that was between Migos and Drake to give you an idea of why Drake is so disliked. Do you remember when Drake hopped on Versace a couple summers ago? Basically, Drake made them give him all the publishing for the Versace Remix so that Migos couldn't make any money off of the record. Migos were mad about this because Drake used this to keep his name hot and build up hype for his album, yet what did they receive in return? Nothing, because they couldn't make a cent. And that record was going to blow up with or without a Drake contribution. So who was he helping, Migos or himself? That kind of behavior is partially the reason why a lot of cats have got such a big problem with Drake.
Had no idea Drake did them like that

I didn't know about Meek being mad about Drake missing his homecoming concert, but if Karen Civil is telling the truth and that is the reason why Meek is mad at him and called him out, it would make sense. It ties in with the reasons why a lot of people in the industry dislike Drake. They feel he's fake and just uses them to help him with his image and then throws them to the side when he gets what he wants. It's the same reason why there was tension between Future and Drake a while back and why there was tension between Migos and Drake. There ions tinges of jealousy there, but most of the animosity towards him comes because he's not the person he portrays himself to be. Drake isn't that much of a nice guy, he's just a shrewd businessman.

So long story short, they hate Drake because he looks out for his best interests and doesn't allow himself to be used.

Um, okay then.

Word ever since I peeped how Drake did the Migos and Future like that. I knew he was flaw dude, his whole gimmick is a act. Motherfukka hopped on their record, when they didnt even ask for it, then didnt give em clearance to sell the shyt. So they couldnt even make money off it. He only did that bullshyt to look "hot to the streets"

QC ....migos label details it in a article. Said the whole situation was a "Gift and a Curse"


"he talks about how good it feels to have proven wrong all the people who said "Versace" had only become a hit because Drake added a verse to a remix. It wasn't because of Drake, Pee says—in fact, he adds, he's not even sure the Drake thing ended up helping that much, especially since Drake's label never gave Quality Control the clearance to sell the song on iTunes. "It was a gift and a curse. Sometimes I really wish he had never jumped on it—it was gonna blow without him."

Listen. If I'm partnering up with you as a business venture, smile with you in your face and act like everything's cool, but shark you when you least expected it and fukked YOUR money up... You telling me you wouldn't feel some type of way?:usure:Never mind the "Shoulda never trusted anyone in business then!:yeshrug:" response, cause you wouldn't think like that in the heat of the moment. Nobody does.

Negro, that's life.


And if I was a 'real nikka' I'd be embarrassed to ever admit that I was financially man-handled by a soft, light-skinned dude from Canada. :heh:

Those 'trigger fingers' should have been busy flipping the pages of business books.
