abel wasn't writing his raps tho, ala underground kings; lord knows; look what you've done etc

We don't know who wrote those rhymes especially since these allegations have surfaced.


It not being Abel, doesn't mean it wasn't someone else

You'll notice anyone who is even mildly relevant ain't seeing shyt...because they are all guilty of this practice. The only people writing 100% of their raps are losers who haven't made it.

I fux with you but

:aicmon:
You've taken a few swipes at Drake (:aicmon:) but I still fukk with you too. :ehh: :smugbiden:


My point is on songs that are just written to be hits, I'm sure most rappers receive some assistance. But those rappers have already proven that they can write. The difference is: while I have no problem believing that Drake is pretty much a rapper by committee these days, I also know that he can write, has written and continues to write.

He's already build a lot of capital with his earlier work and that's hard to lose. If proof ever comes out that he doesn't write his most introspective shyt, then I might reconsider but until then../:yeshrug:. I'm just gonna enjoy the music.

Did you see my "Hate Drake All You Want" thread? Remember that most of this site are jealous children. They wish their favorite wack rapper had Drake's spot.
