Agreed.
Honestly didn't think it would go that deep. Like I figured the Rico thing was just bullshit. I mean it's still dope music, but yeah.
It's rough seeing Drake fans trying to reconcile this on KTT rather than accept the L. It's like people comforting each other before the bombs hit in Fallout.

One of the most reliable "insider" posters, not gonna lie. Called the Hogan thing before it happened, I remember his Drake comments, etc.
FWIW i agree with PD on this guy. One of the most broadly experienced, knowledgeable, insightful people i've ever seen on the internet. Every post is pure gold. And he knows a shitload of people in everything from academia to tv media to hip hop to sports.

KTT Drake stans repeating over and over that Quentin was credited for Rico so it's not ghostwriting.
I don't care if he's credited or not, if someone is writing your verses while the world assumes you wrote them...you have a ghostwriter. There's nothing wrong with someone writing hooks or whatever. But IF Flex is telling the truth and has full verses? It's over. I could see a stan dismissing 10 Bands as an outlier. But this would be three tracks. Five if we count Hold On We're Coming Home and Started From The Bottom.

Not ghostwriting if you got credit huh?
Guess Jay Z, Hitman, D.O.C., Eminem, and Royce didn't ghostwrite all those Dre verses on 2001 since they got credit.

What's over? If Quentin keeps giving him this heat people will still listen
His talent and skill has definitely decreased in my eyes but not the quality of the work he released. Not at all.
Hell I'm more worried about this guy dropping Quentin after all of this and his output being worse for it

I've been listening to ghostwritten songs for a while for scientific research or whatever, and I ran into some tracks from P Diddy's Press Play album and lmao, he didn't try to hide anything. At all. It's like karaoke

Yeah, ghostwriting is beside the point on a feature like Rico. It's just the one verse. If someone's handing that over already done then you aren't really doing anything creatively.
I agree for the most part, but even on a feature. I dunno, feels a little weird.

It makes him look lazy and untalented tho most definitely. I thought he had one of the smoothest flows in the game but that's all being questioned now
So yeah his talent and skill has really dropped for me and this basically is karaoke if he's freaking using flow references too. That's the worst thing about the news for me. Still Quentin's views from the six will be fire

Views From Quentin, whew.
I feel kinda bad for OVO if this is all real. I mean casuals won't care, and I'll still listen, but their leader will be discredited in many people's eyes.

So what songs have been claimed as bought/ghost written so far?
Press Play aint a bad album. Diddy is never more obvious than when he spitting Ross raps.
Id like to know if Game wrote for anybody cause he awfully good at biting styles.
Blessings, RICO, parts of 10 Bands, Hold On We're Going Home

Yo if he did.
C'mon Fjordson, c'mon Drake fans. That line is like that entire album. If Quentin laid that on a reference track I might have to recycle bin all my Drake music.
This is serious now.
That will be crazy if true. Quentin Miller the icon of our era.Flex says he has know yourself

Hey I'm not denying anything. This is a megaton L.
The collaborative shit was one thing, but stuff like the Rico verse, when that's your entire contribution, feels pretty weird tbh.

Give these niggas the look, the verse, and even the hook
That's why every song sound like Drake featuring Drake

It's weird for me because I've always said that Started From The Bottom/10 Bands/Know Yourself Drake was my favorite Drake.
But it ain't even Drake, breh. How can I make peace with this knowing Quentin '6 God' Miller is the one behind all the anthems and quotables?

It's only right I revive this song now
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ny_g_UipmDA - We'll probably never get the entire song though
it aint like the songs become less good. Unless you really gonna listen to it like "drake didnt come up with all of this himself. it doesnt bump"

But there's so much baggage now, man.
Does he even really run through the 6?
Are there even woes?
