Coli could blow up if we could just direct folks to the first page w/ all the proof.
Yeah, this is a common PR tactic used by people who are guilty to try and fool the public. Evade and deflect and hope it goes away. If this was just some random rapper throwing out allegations, i'd say Drake might have been in a position to laugh it off. But we now have physical proof, and the fact he's still trying to laugh that off makes him look more guilty. If someone says I stole something, I can just say they're lying. If someone brings out video footage of me stealing, I better have a damn good excuse. The fact that Drake doesn't even see it necessary to provide a response to the reference tapes is damning and shows how little he actually cares about his art.Why..Drake fans arent concerned with ghostwriting.
Not responding is the best answer..
Because when you DO you give validity to the situation at hand..
No. If you care about Drake's actual musical talent and skill on the mic, why would you think substantiated allegations of fraudulence aren't important? The only people who are willing to overlook that were never into his music at all. They liked Drake because of his style and his image. Drake is supposed to be a musician, first and foremost. So when you take away his musical talents, what's left? OvO tattoos and hoodies. fukk that. I don't know how anyone can claim to respect Drake as an artist if they're willing to overlook whether he actually made the art or not. That shyt is over my head.
Wouldn't you say it's the opposite?
The people that don't care about the music
The people that do care about this don't even like Drake music and don't want him to be liked anymore

These nikkas is weird as fukk man. Meek won the war in which he became the laughingstock of rap & social media?Oh ok
Meek's first tweet that started all this shyt was "stop comparing Drake to me too...he don't write his own raps!" That's what a ghostwriter does breh, they write the lyrics for an artist
Breh IDK. I really don't know what you're talking about. Educate me, give me some background info on what happened
How do I look up to Drake?![]()

I like Drakes music, but I'm riding to just as much Meek Mill in the whip right now so miss me with that shyt. Drake had to go at Meek b/c Meek went after Drake first on some snake shyt. I don't have a problem with Meek goin after Drake, but he went after him on some snake shyt. Meek was in his feelings over not getting a retweet and wanted to publicly embarrass Drake. Drake responded to protect his reputation and embarrass Meek and he's been successful. It is what it is...but y'all not gonna convince me that Drake is a fraud when his alleged ghostwriter says he doesn't ghostwrite for him and y'all have no other evidence besides a few lines from reference tracks. Sorry![]()
Day by day you'll see how untrue that is. We're still in the early stages. His supporters will realize though, that his pen does matter and matters more than anything else. Think Prince. A part of his aura and image as a legend/artist is that he writes his own shyt and is highly talented in multiple areas. He's giving you his mind, so the connection is there. You take away The aura that Prince doesn't write his own shyt and it'sIt ain't about respect or any of that other shyt you talking
It's about liking how the music sounds. Most fans don't have the time nor cares to give a fukk about the minutiae of how a song is made
I actually think it takes talent to rap, so I respect the people who are doing it well. That's the whole point of appreciating art. The music may sound the same, but where my respect goes has definitely changed. And I think it's sad that most people don't take the time to appreciate the artistry of the music they're listening to. That's why pop music is in such a shyt state right now, people stopped paying attention and giving respect to the artists, so the genre got flooded by a bunch of hacks looking to cash in. I don't care what's in it, it tastes good!It ain't about respect or any of that other shyt you talking

All of those songs people know about...and not one person on there is considered a lyricist.
Im surprised to shocked Baby doesnt write?
Im supposed to be shocked about Iggy?
Im supposed to be shocked about Pharrell (even if its Snoop...he's been on cruise control the past few years...and he pretty much wrote the Cronic).
If he wants to sure. he doesn't need to yet b/c this shyt is getting swept under the rug b/c Tweet is a bumbling buffoon. Had a more reputable source put this info out then Drake might've had to respond just for his credibility. But Drake doesn't need to respond to the crab level posters who are running rampant in this thread who never fukked with him anyway. Better put: Why would Drake need to respond to his Day 1 haters who never gave a damn about him or his credibility until now?
no...the point is that Drake = Puff = Iggy.Where did I claim they were lyricists? They made hit records and that's the point. fukk all that other noise. So what if a ghostwriter wrote some hot lines, they made it a hot song.
