For the last time, listen close. When Drake sent the FEATURE verse to Meek and when the song RICO first came out, there was zero indication of Quentin Miller being a contributor on the song. I have the physical copy and his name isn’t in the linear notes. Therefore there was no acknowledgment that Drake had help writing the verse. That’s exactly what a ghostwriter is.
Genius and Wikipedia edited the credits to include Quentin Miller. He still isn’t credited on Spotify for the song.
How credits work from a feature standpoint, is that you give the lead artist a list of individuals that need to be credited. Drake obviously left out Quentin miller because it was a feature and he couldn’t hide behind the anonymity of him blending into to a long list of writers/producers and contributors.
sticky this in the Drake section

While none of this is wrong,
Why would he credit QM on like 5, 6 songs of IYRT and shout him out in the album thank you’s
And not credit him on Rico?
Genuinely asking
QM was credited
no he f***ing wasn’t you delusional d***riding f***

so tired of the blatant revisionist history they’re trying to pull on this site
the PREMIERE OF THE REFERENCE IS LITERALLY ON YOUTUBE RIGHT NOW
like holy f***
championships came out after that whole fiasco. only miss hes really had (according to popular opinion i guess) is expensive pain
I wonder how the beef wouldve played out if Meek hadn't made up with Drake in 2018 but instead hopped on a diss track with Pusha T back then
Listen close. He was credited on every song he worked on on IYRTITL.
@edumist
no matter how hard you believe it, he wasn’t credited on RICO
take your L
that isn’t even getting into how he bit QM’s flows and cadences across that entire IYRT tape

I never said he was credited on Rico lmao.

You don't have to have them in the liner notes but atp ktt love dead horse topics
actually has nothing to do with this
Meek was in a great place post jail with Championships. 3 yrs after the drake beef he had a great album, grammy nominated, and it sold really well.
after that he really just never captured the culture in the same way or did anything super interesting outside of his funny bad social media posts.
meek couldn't pivot and doesn't know how to use the internet
can't blame drake for that one sorry
Of course he did. Are you new to hip hop?
Do you know what a ghostwriter is? QM was always credited as a writer.
no he f***ing wasn’t you delusional d***riding f***
Wow you’re aggressive AND missing chromosomes lmao
He was always credited on IYRT & it’s MEEKS TEAMS responsibility for getting the credits straight for a song on MEEKS album.
Please go find your missing brain cells.
Listen close. He was credited on every song he worked on on IYRTITL.
Meek Mill called him out after he found out he didn’t write the RICO verse. Drakes own project is a moot point because you can easily say he only added a word to a hook in the background and he would get credit.
With a feature of just your vocals, you don’t have that excuse.
no matter how hard you believe it, he wasn’t credited on RICO

He was never credited. Lol. So they think complex is lying too?

Every single other contributor has their names in the credits/linear notes. Everyone. So stop this weirdo conspiracy s***.
Do you know what a ghostwriter is? QM was always credited as a writer.
Refer to above.
What’s the reason for him leaving QM off the credits of Rico when he put him all over the credits of the album?
So he hid that QM helped him on 16 bars but openly credited him for the album? That doesn’t make much sense. He hid that he had help on a 16 but didn’t hide it when it came to his own project? What?
Could have been something as simple as some error with submission or some s***
Also, from experience how credits get handled varies from team to team but typically the artists themselves have very little to do with that.
