So, Drake is being accused of using ghost writers. Fuckery inside.

Drake never really acts hard though. He's like a lot of cats that hang in the hood/hood friends and puts association over the actual thuggery antics. I've seen the suburb kids throw signs or pop finger shots because they may chill with the hood kids but wouldn't walk the streets alone.

Drake music is great music for time around females and every couple of tracks a banger might pop up. People thinking he could get bodied by this aren't recognizing Aubrey reach and base who could give a damn unless Meek got a Summer Jam tutu picture to blast, which based off the degrassi memes may only boost his sympathy with his core audience.

Meek lost before he every began.

alright man but when youre constantly pointing your finger gun at the camera you forego your ability to say you dont act hard

If all DLC came tied to $13 figurines, I'd consider all DLC to be free

what do you mean? can you just point pretend guns and they not mean anything at all? its the same as throwing up the peace sign? lol what are you talking about its an intentional gesture. i mean honestly hes probably just channeling battle rappers but that all comes from a place

edit: obviously i dont think hes going to kill anybody i dont "take it that seriously" but i dont literally ignore it completely either. lol. if you cant do it to a stranger on the street it has a meaning.

the gunshots at the beginning of Energy had me cracking up

to be fair though, it sounded like someone took a nailgun to work

That's the producer's signature not something Drake specifically asked for.

It's like how all of Mike Will's beats start off with "Mike Will made it"

Well Charged Up is pretty garbage.

Only if you don't understand lyrics... You should really listen to it again, and this time actually pay attention to the lyrics. You don't have to be screaming at the top of your lungs like Meek all the time in order to diss someone thoroughly.

Not a huge Drake fan, but Drake is bodying Meek right now. A Canadian former child actor is bodying Phillies own.

Its time to stop tweeting and drop something Meek

I can't think of another Boi 1-da beat with that sound.

It's okay, you can stop pretending to like Charged Up.

You can go in hard on a track or ether someone lyrically without having to be a certified Gangbanger. Stay Scheming is one of my favorite Drake verses...i dont care about what he does in his private time ( i dont know him) , but the energy he felt when recording that one was aggressive and thats how he portrayed it. Thats what you expect from an artist.

People or rappers with less range or who dont wanna adapt scream foul whenever someone outplays them on their home turf. They should just STFU and make good music.

Absolutely. I agree with you but you are still pretty much glossing over the fact that drake acts hard sometimes by giving it another name. It's an artist portraying an energy, sure. But its also definitely a human being pointing a symbolic gesture of murder.

I didn't like the delivery, sounded the opposite of being charged up, but's it full of subs. I appreciate that more in a diss track than "FUCK JAY-Z"

Besides that's not his style.

EDIT: Def not dissing Ether, lol. Just saying that's not what I expect from Drake. If he comes out talking about rolling up on Meek with the burner, i'm rolling my eyes.

So does every other mainstream Rapper or entertainer from time to time. Thats why i dont understand this critique. No one of these dudes will get their hands really dirty and sacrifice their career.

Man dude probably has Drake on Quick Dial....is he one of the Wolves Drake was running through the 6 with ? lol

Two hit combo now and Meek is still checking Twitter.

Has anyone ever truly made a list of Drake's fake thug lines?

All I can recall is "catch a body like that"; other than him talking about "the old me" sort of vaguely.

I don't pay that much attention but do see a lot of people talking shit that he pretends to be a thug; what lines or songs are people referring to?
Always been overstated a bit.

Meek Mill is the supposedly the "real one". Though his label boss often raps about being a kingpin despite the fact that he used to be a corrections officer :lol 95% of the time rap is just music and entertainment. As it should be. Violent crime and jail stints probably aren't as cool as they look in the movies.

This guy might be my favorite politician ever.

Please do not ruin this by posting stories of corruption

thanks.

Not to burst your bubble but he probably has a young staffer handle his Twitter. Still probably OK's this stuff but I doubt he's producing meme images himself.

Reminds me of the Seattle PD's media correspondant who handled their social media. Obviously some young fairly "with it" millennial; whereas the PD itself is a bunch of violent corrupt good old boys.

Don't think I've ever heard a full song by Drake, so can't speak to it. But you got to love someone accusing a rival of using ghost writers with grammar so appaling that they clearly need some of their own.

"I waited four days, nigga, where y'all at?
I drove here in the Wraith playin' AR-AB"


"I mean woah, can't fool the city, man, they know what's up
Second floor Tootsies, gettin' shoulder rubs"


"Seen what you'd do for fame or what you'd do for freedom
Please, check 'em for a wire or a earpiece"


Taking this man's City from him and then calling him a snitch....

Yo what. First of all, what lyrics do I have to pay attention to? It's not like I'm distracted by that beat that leaves a ton to be desired and puts the light right on his lyrics. Which carry nothing of worth? No quotables to care for. Some of these are even the most generic Drake subliminals. Stuff about him helping other artists and he's done with that. Has his friends back etc.

On top of that he talks about "Cops are killing people with their arms up and your main focus is tryin to harm us"? Where the fuck does that come from? Drake is the last person that can talk about the social injustices that have occurred in the past few years. Been mum about it until he brings it up in a pathetic attempt to throw Meek under the bus. That line alone fucks up an already mediocre track in my book.

Also, I'm not a Meek fan. Far from it. He's taking an L here by just standing around tweeting. So no, you don't have to be screaming at the top of your lungs to diss somebody. I never implied that, ever in my post history. This new Drake track is dope though, liking it.

TLDR: Stop it slime.

Heard the track on Ebro/Styles/Rosenberg this morning driving the wife (obsessed with Drake) to the train. That shit was brutal.

Question: should Meek even respond at this point or should he just lie down and take it and hope it goes away. Other than hoping to boost some sales, can he even gain anything (respect) from prolonging this?
