Dude, he had a lot of writers.... I dont know how to break this to you but this shyt is common as fukk with actors in particular who cross over into music. You can tell listening to his early work and then a lyrical miracle happened and he got better. But it wasn't a miracle, his team hired & paid for the best in canada.

But you know what? He still can't touch the TO legend Saukrates: (who was singing before Drake & producing all by his damn self btw) None of the dj's will tell you that, it is history revision. Him and K-OS they started that movement.





How many peple do you know "BREH" that had Monch,OC,Common,Xzibit,Masta Ace on their debut lp? Yet no one talked about him in the states. He can wax everyone in Drake's circle and that isn't even his day job, "BREH" He's a violinist for Nelly on tour. Matter of fact, I wouldn't be surprised if Sauk wrote for Drake. Considering he was the first to show Drake how to record in the studio.


Don't think Sauks does, he would at least be involved behind the scenes (production wise) early on during So Far Gone or Thank me Later. But yeah Saukrates is a real talent, Redman never utilized that nikka.

@NorthernLights why was he flying my dude up to Toronto in the mid 2000s?
to see Raptors games and just hang out? Mid 2000s-2009. The nikka told me HIMSELF. Then he admitted it in a few interviews.
Look it up. shyt, ask him.
That is one dude who has zero reason to lie. He doesn't hate or hate on Drake...he just lives his life and releases dope music.

lol at thinking this Drake is better than current Drake. He sounds generic as hell. And he likely wrote this himself.

I think Drake wrote most of his stuff back then
I'm not even trying to defend Drake from the ghostwriting (I am a big fan of his though). I don't believe he's writing half of his stuff at the moment, but I just can't believe he never wrote the majority of his material. That's just too hard to believe. That this guy just from out of the gate (a nobody known only for being in Degrassi) had people writing him all of these great verses and songs that put him on? I don't believe that

Drake wrote this. Nickelus F wrote the I'm Goin' In verse and admitted they both fed each other lines in the CS era. Nickle F got Drake in his top 5 and they did a song together like two years ago.
This was the mixtape that actually got me into making music. Use to listen to this shyt so much top to bottom
Word :ehh:
