Wouldnt be surprised if phonte was one of drakes ghostwriters. How phonte feeding himself and his family then? It obviously isnt from his own music. Phonte trying to protect his breadbasket.

I think I remember Phonte saying he works when he's not doing the podcast with Quest and touring.

A regular job. He talks about going to work and picking up his kid's from school and having a normal life a lot.

I highly doubt he's writing for dude. We would've seen him in the credits by now, or someone would've blown that spot up. I just think Phonte's influence is mad heavy and people have been pulling from his work a lot for years.

I'll say this, when Drake gets in his bag his style is kinda similar so you can say that influence stuck. But Drake in that bag is different even though both are hella braggadocius...Drake is a pure slick a$$hole and Phonte is just confident

drake was supposed to have a feature on one of phonte’s solo albums, he didn’t clear it and I think phonte was a little annoyed about that

but otherwise phonte never threw shade at dude so fans don’t care

I remember Phone speaking about this

Something along the lines of kind of feeling disrespected.

Like if I influenced you , then you can show me a bit of love

I don't even think Drake recorded a verse, said he would but kinda ghosted him.
