I don't see what's wrong with this. A lot of dudes like Quentin Miller got paid, so why be mad at that?

because Drake (or whoever is writing at the time) continues to tell us in those same songs why he is so great

"everybody got a deal; I did it without one" :comeon:

on the same track with Eminem, Weezy, Kanye & Wayne with an R.City hook that you re-sung. :martin:

I didn't ask "why don't you take drake serious" I said why are you mad at him for putting money in someone else's pocket?

None of you guys can answer that, and the fact remains

:stopitslime:should africa be happy cacs have pillaged the mother land because a few sellouts of color have prospered from it? Answer that... Money cant erase the fact the vultures monetary value to a handful of people has zero value when you smart enough to know the long term consequences of Kirby's morphing and subsequent whitewashing of a music genre.

Like @Dotcom said, in any other art form, not writing your own shyt is unacceptable.

As a producer myself, if my beats/tracks weren't made by me and I had reached a certain level of fame...and somebody found out and I was exposed that would be the end of my career. Basically, I would be just a figure behind music while someone else made it. And I had NOTHING to do with it other than put a face to it.

So why should it fly in hip-hop? It shouldn't.

I just wish I had heard of Quentin Miller without this....he has great music. But it frustrates me knowing that this industry really doesn't push genuine talent like that but what is "marketable".
