Yes Meek is right..but what he said has destroyed Drakes credibility among the hip hop purists..drakes 15 year old cac stans couldnt care less, but others that know better took great offence because of the potential for it to ruin their favorite pop star..thats all the backlash against Meek was about. It was purely to protect Drake..

Meeka diss was weak, but lets not act like most of the hatred against him isn't due to Drakes industry pull, connections and marketing team. :sas2:

They went into overtime influencing casual listeners, so that pretty much stacked numbers against Meek. They created a bandwagon and of course ppl jumped right on it.

Pretty Much, but Drake can't pretend to be a great MC anymore.

What I funny is how the Drake fans have completely turned this situation into something its not.

This ordeal never had to do with 'battling'. At the end of the day Meek told the truth about Drake and leaked the reference tracks to back up what he said.

What more you nikkas want from him? :mjlol:

Drake on the other hand made two diss songs in a weeks, with neither addressing the accusations Meek to begin with.

Now having the ammo to create a make-believe world where Drake was winning the 'battle', Drake fans go on a cyber onslaught demanding Meek make a response track to Back To Back. With no response, Drake fans speend weeks trying to act like Meek's career is over and somehow he took the L in this situation. :mjlol:

This is all too funny to me. Going on months later Drake still hasn't directly addressed the ghostwriting shyt, and that's all that anyone will care about. When Views From The 6 drops, people will go directly to the writing credits and again realize how much of a fraud Drake is.

Meek absolutely played this the correct way. He has little motivation to 'diss' Drake. This shyt is not personal to him outside the way people have given Drake a pass and that has little to do with Drake the person, but more the current landscape of the game now.

Meeks diss wasn't weak. You only think it is because of the industry influence you just mentioned.

Exactly, this is basically what I was getting at. This was never the type of situation where a 'diss' was needed. Meek called him a fraud and proved it. This wasn't a 'battling' type situation. Even though meek won that too

Exactly, this nikkas label had Fukkin spam bots on twitter :mindblown: it's too early for ppl to rewrite history. Whole industry was riding against Meek and ridiculing his claims when they were first made, way before 'wanna know' or 'back to back' dropped. Anyone acting like the reaction to Drakes exposal was determined by them weak ass battle songs is full of shyt

Truth and Integrity never did even back in the days. Dr. Dre made a song called Dre Day making fun of Eazy-E telling him to suck dikk and all this other shyt. Eazy made reply called Real Gs exposing how fake Dre's image was. From what I've heard and from what the consensus was around me, Dre Day was way more popular, and nobody seem to give a fukk if Dre was a "fake gangster". Chronic still sold millions

Eh....

"The Chronic" had already sold millions before Eazy's song ever came out.

Regardless, I need to clarify. People I talked to, and in my age bracket (I was 18 in 1994) didn't take the Dre pictures as gospel because there wasn't much overlap between young rap fans and World Class Wreckin Cru fans. Nor was there an internet to fact check anything.

So nah, it wasn't a matter of :blessed: "who cares if Dre is fake, he makes good music". It was more a matter of, people had no way of knowing if that was really Dre, so they mostly ignored it. Rap fans can't claim ignorance to anything in 2015.
