Drake apologists about to be up in here like :

Meek = slapped like a bytch by puff, milli-vinill traits, recapping you getting pissed on in a cinema "+" the 5 reference tracks

Drake = maybe I hit your chick, I don't need feature money, apple pays me

It's obvious.

Petty ass Drake stans making shyt seem like things are OK that Drake had writters, but deep down the shyt is killing you. Bringing you back to your younger days when you hated "fake ass nikkas" or would clown on fake gangstas and wiggers etc...
But now shyts cool ? fukk yall young non creative fakkits man. Mad that your hero is performing kareokee to an Atlanta man's songs.

This the same shyt as these singin/rap dudes claiming they Bloods. Soft hearted frauds portraying an image.

All i keep hearing from Drake stans are "hooks" ( what they say he took, neglecting the cadence and flow) and "jabs" (weak ass diss tracks). Dude lookin like a shytty boxer in this fight.

fyi....AR-AB's 2 minutes of fame ended as of last night. Today, nobody mentioning that bum. A strategy by Drake that was pointless.

If these reference tracks are "no big deal" then why do all the links keep coming down so quickly? :ohhh: and why is the reason listed as a dmca complaint?:patrice: Usually that only happens when the record company or owner of the music puts in a formal complaint to have it removed. Why would they be so quick to take that kind of action?:sas1: Could it be that they are worried that this could damage the credibility of their artist in the long run and therefore his financial draw?:sas2:

Kanye wasn't credited. That's the point.

We can go further, Omillio Sparks threw Hov hooks too, didn't get credit for them. But he was in the studio with him, just vibing and throwing ideas out there. Does that take away from who Hov is as an artist? This is what people do all day in studios. Q-Tip changed half of the beats on The Infamous, from what Havoc had originally cooked up. But wasn't credited away from the ones he did entirely. Does that mean Havoc should be discredited? I get the point, but anyone who's ever spent time in a studio, knows this has been going on since the 80's. It's nothing new.

I personally think Drake is kinda corny. But let's not act like dude is unique in his approach here. This shyt has happening forever, with tons of our favorites. I'm wondering why everyone's so up in arms about this, but not all the other fake shyt that's been happening for mad years. They just don't like Drake. Period.
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 wouldnt go that far.. I understand the game so its not too shocking for me... he's a megastar, its not suprising when u have to create so much material while running a huge business

I'm not trying to get you to tell, but I really think someone was writing for 50, after a while. The same for young jeezy. There are others, but those two, especially jeezy, I can hear the change in the raps clearly. I doubt they got better, when they got bigger, and more busy. In the case of 50 he became more of a rapper, and less of the witty guy he was when he first came out.

They pulled a good con, though:troll:

Meek hit Drake with Facts. Drake was on some gossip hating on him and Nicki relationship. Look how quick Drake's Legal team got those references down. What does he have to hide? This is by far one of the biggest exposing of a rapper in my lifetime. To think Lil Kim and Lil Cease don't even have 4 reference tracks, lol.
