To be fair though, Drake stans certainly aren't help their cause either. Drake is a very talented guy, writers or not, and he wouldn't be able to get to where he is off pure luck and connections.
The problem is that if you're claiming to be the best rapper alive, yet you have people in the back writing for you, of course we're going to feel a certain way over it. Regardless of Meek's intentions, the fact is that he revealed the reference tracks exist. They're out there. Now, whatever conclusion you arrive at is up to you. Am I saying the man never wrote a rhyme a day in his life? No, far from it. But had this happen to any other rapper, we would've sent him out back for execution. And that's the truth.
Could you imagine the shyt storm that would occur if this had happened to Kendrick?

And on the flip side, could you imagine if this had happened to someone like Tyga? Both instances aren't a good look, but it's a huge deal if it'd happen to Kendrick because we hold Kendrick to a certain standard, just like the culture did Drake. The only reason why Drake is coming out of this clean is because he can pump out hits. Soon as that well starts to dry up, it won't be so funny anymore.
