This whole **** started because one dude didn't tweet the other dudes album. So dude tweeters he didn't write his own verse and had he know he would have pulled the track.

So really, ... it's all some bitch ****. As far as exposing drake as a fake, ... he needs to chill. Not only did he start this on social media, ... but his girls sex appeal was made in a doctor's office. Nothing real is going on in this dudes life. Just enjoy the ride while it lasts and do something smart with your money.

Everyone uses reference tracks. Like seriously you can't buy a beat without one on it honestly. Hell RICO had a reference track it started as a Drake song and it was sold to Meek. Kendrick's biggest song right now (Alright) was first played off Pharrell's iPod with Fabolous doing the exact same hook and rapping with the same flow and cadence. There isn't a single artist without crazy amounts of reference tracks. Taking hooks, flows, and maybe a bar or two is common place. Now taking whole verses is the issue here.

All I know is the Flex dropped more songs tonight. I dont care about that reference track BS. I am a purist. All that **** wack. You can defend that, I dont rock with it. I dont care if its "normal" now. Having something done by Pharrell is one thing. Some unknown cat??? man please. That **** aint hip hop. Thats fraud hop. You not the King. Q miller is giving you songs basically. All Drake is doing, is putting his spin, on another mans style. He dont get props for that.

Sounding like Drake won on the internet, sad but it is what it is we live in a 24/7 era.

I know the hood fu*king with the boy heavy after that diss though.

Did you listen to them? Its only hooks and part of his RICO verse. And the hooks don't even sound all the same. They should've stuck with 10 Bandz and RICO because those sound damning. The other two make it seem like what everyone else does. Nas didn't write the hook to Life's a Bitch or The World is Yours on the GOAT album. Lil Kim has old reference tracks with Biggie rapping her bars line for line that's way more egregious.

I feel like dudes that don't know how the game works think this is something that hasn't been happening since day one but it is. There's a reason all artists bring a ton of dudes to the studio with them they trade ideas.

There's a huge difference between the two.

Pharrell isn't a rapper or spoke about being among the best of his peers spitting raps.

Pharrell is like Diddy & Dr. Dre

And apparently Drake joins them now.

No. You can't have this both ways just because you don't like one but are feeling the other. Either you wrote ALL OF IT by yourself or you didn't. Drake writes for other people too. Don't question his pen by putting him the same category with two dudes that write absolutely nothing.

What ya'll have issue with is the fact that Drake is not only hip-hop. He is music PERIOD. You can't put him in a box and Drake gives no fuqs about what you guys feel is right or wrong. He's been doing him. Dubstep, Pop, Rap, R&B and whatever else he feels like doing.

"10 Bands" shares an album with "Jungle"
"Marvins Room" is on the same album as "Pound Cake"

Drake does not play by your hip-hop purists rules. Never will.

Meek's diss started off good but then he went on some generic bs like acting tough, money (even though Drake is way richer) and bragging about his girl...

Drake came at him with way better lines. Maybe Meek should actually hire some people to write a diss track for him.

Drake does not play by your hip-hop purists rules. Never will.

Green you're moving way too many goalposts & caping for him.

I'll put it to you simple like this:

He had proclaimed for the past 5 years to be among the best lyricists in the game.

Hip-Hop has & always will be a genre that you're criticized more for the lyrics you personally write.

That is fine (actually it isn't but I digress) that Drake had people write for him, he's just not in the same breath as great lyricists.

Lebron is a great player, if it came out he was on PED's he would have an asterisk next to his name.

Barry Bonds didn't need steroids yet he did it & has an ultimate * next to his name.
