10 Years ago today (July 21st,2015) , Drake was accused by fellow rapper / friend, Meek Mill that Drake, the biggest Rap artist in the world, Did not write his own lyrics to his songs. This "out of left field" emotional notion by Meek was would be the strike of Drake's first beef of his professional career. As we all know Drake victoriously won this beef... but still to this day, a "Rap Guru" or Casual fan will swear on the Bible that The Boy doesn't write anything... which we all know to be an absolute lie. Speaking on where things are with Drake today and looking back 10 years ago... In my humble opinion... He should of left absolutely every other rap artist alone to fend to their own careers.... No features, No Help, No Nothing...

(A classic note written from THEHOLYGHOST 10 years ago.. someone who's very close to Drake and his people wrote this as well disputing all this "Ghostwriting S***")

THEHOLYGHOST said:
Alright everyone, I woke up too this and have seen way too much bullshit being said and absolutely NO one knows what they're talking about. So here we go.

DRAKE DOES NOT HAVE GHOSTWRITERS.

Plain and simple. Now let's talk about the difference between Ghostwriting and Writing.

'Ghostwriting' (in terms of music) is the act of writing a verse/lines for an artist for songs without getting credit for it/maybe even accepting compensation for not speaking of it.

'Writing' (in terms of music) is simply writing a verse/lines for an artist and usually expecting to get credit for it as well as compensation.

Now let's continue:

ALMOST EVERY ARTIST ACCEPTS WRITING FROM OTHER PEOPLE. This could mean full verses/a few lines/or maybe just a few words to rhyme. It happens. You're sitting in a studio recording with your entourage struggling to get that last rhyme/line in and one of your people suggests something dope so you incorporate it in the song. THATS WHAT YOUR PEOPLE ARE THERE FOR. You guys have no idea how many times Hush has given a smart/witty line or rhyme to Drake cause it made the song flow better, IT HAPPENS, and not ONCE did he NOT get credited for it.

NOW: Let's talk about Quentin Miller. I did my research on him when I first saw him getting flown out to YOLO Estate. Look at the IYRTITL credits. He is credited for 5 songs for writing. If you're credited on a song for writing you could have either wrote the full verse/given a few suggestions/OR have produced the song (most of the time the producers get credit for the writing portion too as respect). Now I can fully admit to you Quentin gave A LOT of lines/rhymes/hooks to those 5 songs, but full verses? No. Lol. But was he compensated for it and given credit, YES. So what is the big surprise here? His credits have been on there the whole time? People are making a big deal about this now because it's 2015 and Twitter and people don't care to do research beforehand. Drake has gotten SO MANY lines/rhymes from other people around him it's not even funny and if you're mad about that you have NO idea what goes on in the music industry. Hush & Kenza help Drake tremendously with song writing in terms of lines/rhymes and not one of you should care cause that what makes his music good, he's accepting of other people's help and not talking about the same s*** in every song like... Some rappers... Cough.

Which brings me to my next point:

MEEK: I'm a meek mill fan but what he tweeted last night will show you how immature and emotional he really is. fantastic freestyle/street rapper, one of the best out right now. I was so excited for his album, some of the songs are crazy. But ALL OF HIS LYRICS ARE THE SAME BECAUSE HE HAS NOTHING ELSE TO TALK ABOUT. Meek mill has stated he gets a bigger check than you in maybe 30+ songs. His lyrics will never stick with you and have those punch lines likes Drakes will.

So why did Meek tweet those things? Meek really tweeted that Drake didn't tweet about his album? Lol. Let's not forget when Wale didn't tweet about Meek's and this SAME thing happened. He blew him up on Twitter. There was no reason for Meek to blow Drake up on Twitter. Drake has done NOTHING but support that man about getting out of jail, tweeting about his support for him with his music. It's unreal to me that Meek would do this, he's the perfect example of not thinking before you speak. The song was Drakes to begin with. He personally handed Meek a hit song with an awesome verse (which might I say made the song a hit) and Meek has now ruined their complete relationship because he got jealous on the Internet and decided to spill the beans about Drake (which should've been known anyway if you check the credits).

Meek also went about this because Drake was not available to do a video for R.I.C.O and Meek was pissed. Yet Meek knows it's a hit song so he made it a single knowingly that he was mad at Drake already, and he wants to talk about being "real" 😒 lol.

Side Note: Meek knew about this whole "situation" (if that's what you want to call it) before the album even released (was already handed in though) AND he even continued to USE drake's name in interviews the get more hype about his album that he had him on there, again, he wants to talk about being "real" 😒. I know this for a FACT. We have been doing our research and making calls all morning.

The main reason I'm writing this is because some people just don't understand the truth and how things work. And truthfully Meek talks about being real and it annoys me to see how much Drake has supported him and now Meek has ruined that relationship.

At the end of the day, we all know who makes the better hits though and who makes the better music. Drake does nothing but support other artists and after everything they still find a reason to try and bring him down.

JAY Z predicted this all in his Light Up verse... It's time for Drake to realize everyone in this industry is fake. EVERYONE.

This is the Guy that wrote for Pusha-T too right??? don't make me break out proof since we being funny

Do it.

Took all credibility away when you wrote all this but said Meek was Drake’s first beef

And ppl wonder why drake turned bitter after this s*** 😈

theres also a version with Pharrell doing hook but it doesnt share lyrics with Q's one which Pusha covered.

this is literally the reason Meek was mad because this entire reasoning is a major assumption when we know that there’s A LOT of TOP LEVEL artists who have a closed door policy when it comes to recording, especially those of the ilk in which Drake said he’s in at that time. If Drake says he’s one of the top rappers of all time, then having another nigga, homie, weed carrier, jockstrap holder whatever contributing lines/references to your verses that are later incorporated into your own flow and also picked out from his verses, then you just looks crazy for the alleged air you say that you venture within. I’ve never told my homie what to say in his verses, just how to say it

ALMOST EVERY ARTIST ACCEPTS WRITING FROM OTHER PEOPLE. This could mean full verses/a few lines/or maybe just a few words to rhyme. It happens. You're sitting in a studio recording with your entourage struggling to get that last rhyme/line in and one of your people suggests something dope so you incorporate it in the song. THATS WHAT YOUR PEOPLE ARE THERE FOR.

Most consequential event in hip-hop this century and I’ll stand by that.

we already knew they didn't care about the ghost writing allegations, just like they don't care that push had qm ghost write for him (to which I'm VERY surprised at). They don't care about the truthfulness of the matter, we been knew that.

ik why meek was mad

in on a classic jadore thread

WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW I didn't know about this one.... This nigga ain't got no shame...

I just wanna add this.. the real reason this makes Push look bad... is because he taunted Drake for YEARS about QM... only to find out that you yourself set down with the man.. lmaoooooooooooo Yo..... crazy part also, I definitely believe Drake knows and have heard these tracks.. i got a strong feeling

Don't be surprised... Im just ready for somebody like Akademiks to blow this up... but people not gon care tho...

They leaked 2023, doubt theyll make any waves now

lol if it was Drake and it got brought up from some leaks in 2023... The world would go crazy... lol Bookmark this thread in case we need to come back to it

i honestly don’t know how drake forgave him after doing something like this
