But I'm still puzzled as why meek even ratted him out tho. Like, was he that mad about him not tweeting your album? He had to have known how damaging this shyt could be. That's why I can't ride with meek on this. That shyt wasn't coo at all.
I'm thinkin' it goes back to him not writing his verse on R.I.C.O, cuz the artist comes outta pocket for it. Since Miller did the hook and some of the bars, Meek prolly felt like he got fukked over cuz he thought Drake actually did and he paid Drake for it.

:russ: Nah, Drake took the 6 from Jimmy Prime. Jimmy Prime is the one who started calling Toronto the 6 originally. Drake gave credit when he first started saying it then just started using it himself :snoop:

Because he paid money for a Drake verse and got a Quentin verse, it's just that simple.

He is going to pay for what he did. Drake is a money maker, and meek is messing shyt up. Watch his sales all of a sudden drop by his next release. They are going to get the Charlemagne's, the complex magazines, the mtvs, to talk bad about meek and not play his shyt. The fans will think they dont like meek because of the music, but its the label manipulation. I seen this shyt before, except it was more low key. With meek, its going to hurt him publicly.

They will still try to push Drake, but he will fall off because people won't be able to take him serious when he raps about certain things, so the label is going to get him to make more songs for women since they could care less. BUT, women don't stay loyal to rappers, and drake will eventually be forgotten. I told people on this site, rappers only get 5-7 years, if you go longer then that, you are going to be doing this for years to come. Drake could have made it if it wasn't for this info.

There is a difference from hearing a hook, and using it, to having someone make a reference track for you. The point of a reference track is to show you how to do the actual singing or rapping of the lyrics. You do it exactly like you hear it, hence "reference track".

That is unheard of in rap, except for people who weren't really rappers, and didn't claim to be, they were entertainers.biggie wrote for all of junior mafia, except klepto, because he wanted them out of the streets, and making legal money.

Nah, I'm talking about someone getting in the booth recording something. And then the actual artist going in behind them and doing what was laid down. I've been in countless sessions where this has been done. It's not always planned, but the process is all the same. You might not have a hook in place, or a bridge. But someone else might have something they think may work for you. So they go in. You follow and work with whatever they gave you. This is everyday shyt in music, period. Not just Hip Hop. But the point is, everything isn't always one MC, one producer. We'd love for it to be that way, but a lot of music gets made by several people either throwing ideas around, or building tracks separately and then working together to piece them together as a whole. For anyone in music, this is common knowledge.

I get why it's not as organic as Primo and Guru working on something, but it's just the reality for how a lot of records have been made forever in Hip Hop, and other genres.
