There's no need to give him "the benefit of the doubt," we've heard what Quentin did on those tracks. You can either assume he wrote the rest, or assume he gave Quentin Miller credit for what he wrote and had a ghostwriter do the rest, which we can prolly agree sounds unlikely (why even give Quentin credit at all if someone else wrote the rest?)

Drake doesn't write all his own shyt, and people will definitely be checking his album credits more closely now to find out who's helping him.
We didn't know QM existed a month ago. There could be more QMs for him.

What does that have to do with entertainment?

Who cares how the sausage is made.

IDGAF if my favorite rappers (Jay, Drake,Cole, Future) have 50 writer as long as they continue to make the music Im a fan of.

IDGAF if Kendrick Lamar has 1 writer it will never make me like or listen to his music.

nikka, if I found out Michael Jackson was a fraud or Stevie Wonder/Marvin Gaye/R. KElly didnt realy write their songs.....it would be a major blow. It would seriously bother me as a fan of music and admirer of their talent.


Where is your sense of pride? :scust:

:ohhh:

I wonder if Drake whole career is based on having ghostwriters. If it is he need to be snatched off them sprite can ASAP and stripped from ever being on a list of top rappers.

Not that his fakkit ass fans would give a fukk but still.

For reference, here are the bars we know Quentin didn't write. Not going to say Drake wrote them, Kenza Samir is also credited on Used To so we know for a fact she gave him at least one line, probably more. It's possible he credited Quentin for his contributions and for some reason didn't credit whoever did the rest. Plus we know Quentin wasn't credited on RICO so who knows who else wasn't credited. Just giving the facts. :manny:

RICO


Funny how now my accountant is havin' trouble tryna count it
To the people that think that I owe you shyt
Payback's a bytch and you know that shyt
Y'all nikkas gettin' too old for this
Please don't think nobody notices

Y'all don't be doin' shyt anyway
Y'all are not true to this anyway

Everyone home for the summer, so let's not do nothing illegal
I go make 50 million then I give some millions to my people

But they're from the way fam, there's not much to say fam
They told me to tell you you mans are some wastemans
And stay in your place fam
My dad is from Memphis, and I am the king
I should probably just move in to Graceland
Madonna’s a ting I know and I’m the king of pop
I’m building Never-Never Land
How he hate me when I never met the man

Know Yourself

I don't like how serious they take themselves
I've always been me I guess I know myself
Shakiness man I don't have no time for that
My city too turnt up I'll take the fine for that
This been where you find me at
That's been where you find me at
I know a nikka named Johnny Bling
He put me on to the finer things
Had a job sellin' Girbaud jeans
I had a yellow TechnoMarine
Then Kanye dropped, it was polos and backpacks
Man, that was when Ethan was pushin' a Subaru hatchback
Man I'm talkin' way before hashtags

This is that nasty flow
Top boy in this shyt, I'm so international
Reps up is in here
Got P Reign and Chubby and TJ and Winnie and woah
Yeah, and you know how that shyt goes
I might declare it a holiday as soon as Baka get back on the road
Yeah but you know how that shyt go
They so irrational, they don't wanna patch it up
They wanna mash it up, woah
My nikka Jibba, he whip it, I ride in the passenger
I'm way up, I stay up, I'm two up, I'm three up
I had to get back to you, woah
I'm turnin' into a nikka that thinks about money and women
Like 24/7, that's where my life took me
That's just how shyt happened to go, yeah, and you know

Used To

Yeah, when you get to where I'm at
You gotta remind 'em where the fukk you at
Every time they talkin' it's behind your back
Gotta learn to line 'em up and then attack
They gon' say your name on them airwaves
They gon' hit you up right after like it's only rap
Jewels look like I found a motherfukkin' treasure map
And ain't told no one where the fukk it's at
Shout out to the G's from the ends
We don't love no girls from the ends
I'm gon hit 'em with the wham once again
I'mma always end up as a man in the end, dog
It's just apparent every year
Only see the truth when I'm staring in the mirror
Lookin' at myself like, there it is there
Yeah, like there it is there man, whoo
I ain't tryna chance it
I be with the bands like a nikka went to Jackson State
Or Grambling
Young Nick Cannon with the snare drum, dancin'
Watch the way I handle it, uh
Bring it to the bedroom, you know that shyt is candle lit
She know I'm the man with it, uh
With the bands like I must've went to Clark, went to Hampton
I ain't playin' with it

Way more gully gully than buddy buddy
Never needed your acceptance, never needed nothin'
You don't understand, I'm the only one to hear from
You don't understand that it's me or nothin'
Yea, I'm fukkin' glowin' up
Shaq postin' up on nikkas that I used to have posters of
Real quick, man, you couldn't have hated that
Let's be real, nikka, you couldn't have made it that
Woah, dance how I dance, watch me dance
You're fukkin' with the best, man, I'm too advanced
After this drop I got new demands
Can't meet the terms, keep it movin' then
Make sure the plane got a phone now
So when we bout to land I can call to tell the wolves I'm home now
I'll tell 'em link up at the valet at the Hazy
Think I got the shyt that had the city going crazy

10 Bands

I been in the crib with the phones off
I been at the house taking no calls
I done hit the stride got my shyt goin'
In the six cooking with the wrist motion
Drapes closed, I don't know what time it is
I'm still awake, I gotta shine this year
I could never ever let the streets down
Haven't left the condo for a week now

I've been on a mission, haven't left the condo
This that OVO, that SZN, this that new Toronto
I get boxes of free Jordan like I play for North Carolina
How much I make off the deal, how the fukk should I know?
All my watches always timeless, you can keep the diamonds
Treatin' Diamonds of Atlanta like it's King of Diamonds
Take a flick, I look like Meechy, look like Bleu DaVinci
I treat V Live like it's 07 in Magic City
Man, I told my city I'd be gone till November then November came
Then I came, right back on my worst behav'
6 God, put both hands together, that's amazin' grace
6 God, selfish with the love, I need all the praise (woo)
They got me feelin' like the one again (woo)
They got me feelin' like the one again
Yeah, shout goes out to Nike, checks all over me (note: Quentin says "checks all over me" [referring to Nike] in his 10 Bands so we can assume Drake took this line)
I need a FuelBand just to see how long the run has been
