Meek's biggest problem was probably just that 'Wanna Know' wasnt even a real beat, -- he rapped over a WWE entrance theme, that got him cease-and-desisted because he couldnt clear it, and now the song barely exists anywhere.
the bars were actually hard. the song was not. it was recorded poorly -- the words couldnt hit like they should have, bullshyt sounded like it was recorded in a bathroom.
the lines bout Drake actually getting pissed on?? should have been legendary, instead it fell flat.
-- if he had followed 'Back 2 Back' example of putting out a diss track as a Club record?? if he had had Jahlil Beats throw him his hardest club banger??? He would have won. He was on the biggest tour in the world, had everybody's ears waiting. it would have charted and he could've actually cashed in too like Drake did.
but even if Meek had dropped a "freestyle" over the right beat, like Pusha did, then people would at least be able to play it.
I'm so disappointed in Meek that he lost with the ammo he had. Meek's loss basically allowed ghostwriting to become that much more acceptable. it's gonna stain Drake forever, but by letting Drake win that battle it's fukked up the discussion.
and even tho Push came thru and snatched his soul, Drake is still gonna be an unstoppably huge star -- Push cant affect that, Meek could have.
