How does Drake get credit for "making hit records" when he doesn't write or produce?

that guy is TRASH. Oddisee and Hopsin dont belong in the same galaxy
I just used Hopsin as an example.
I never claimed they were equals and personally I agree with you.
It's a common thing for rappers to lift a bar/a few bars/a hook from their homie/another rapper/a producer and put a track out like that wrote every single word
Even if that were to be the case there's a world of difference between a "Line or two" and a whole song.

Dont question the flow brehs, Aubrey's Flow and Delivery is Grade A.

Those are producers, sampled artists and featured artists dumb ass. PND has two solo songs on the project too. Do you clearly not see Drake wrote You & The 6, Madonna, Now & Forever, Energy, How About Now among other tracks...

And was it you who just switched the If You're Reading This It's Too Late article on Wiki from mixtape to album that's how much you got invested in this :dead:

First you said he had solo writing credits on most of the songs...He doesn't.

I know about split sheets and producers don't get credit when they don't write...most of his production collaborators are songwriters...what you doing with help ON A MIXTAPE...oh that's right, it's officially an album on cash money records.
You're a fukk nikka going hard for fukk nikka principals. :salute: At least you stand your ground....to the point of bending reality.

id like to see a good album that has one person listed as the writer in the credits

even illmatic has multiple people listed as writers

nah, not on most of the songs.
Also, some people, when you sample their shyt, want songwriting credits.
That's not the case with Drake.
Where are the illmatic reference tracks? Drake has those on his file.

Lmao people who hate Drake talk more about him than the people who like him :sas1: Therefore you keep his name alive and relevant as well :sas2:

This not about Audrey. It's about people coppin pleas and trying to portray him as something he's not. Now if Audrey comes on with another song claiming to be the best mc or the greatest mc. Then we gonna have problems.

Alright so from what I understand you're saying is he shouldn't get credit for his songs?

He shouldn't get credit for being an MC. He shouldn't get credit for being a lyricist. He should come out an admit he's an entertainer. He should admit that he's an actor. Well I mean other than that one show what else has he been in. He's not really an actor is he? But he needs to address the validity of his music which he hasn't don thus far.

I was just thinking about that "Kobe my nikka I hate it had to him, bytch you wasn't with me shooting in the gym line."
and how every kobe stan loved it. now :francis:
Ye, that line doesn't sound like Drake at all...He apologized for it shortly after too.

We just don't know how much of his shyt he's actually writing and how much he isn't, which is why he can't be put in the same category with certain MC's no more. Yall Drake nut huggers wanna talk this 'he's more than a rapper' shyt since the exposal, cool, don't compare him to rappers then, contemporary or otherwise.
