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

Yeah his name is everywhere, but it's everywhere because folks are laughing at him. This is the most people have talked about Meek since...ever, and he's become a joke. It's gonna take a lot more than I think he's capable of to bounce back from this. Especially since Drake is a far more popular rapper.

I'm just saying ultimately it will probably lead to more album sales than less. But yeah he's a joke/meme at this point

I could barely understand Meek. I honestly have an easier time following Tiger JK (a korean rapper) when he raps in English.

Honest question. What was Meek hoping to achieve with this beef? What could have been the best possible outcome?

It's just my personal opinion but I really hate people starting shit when there life is good. Dude got Nicki, had the No 1 album and is making money. Why being greedy and make yourself look bad in the process? He should have known better... There is levels to this shit.

At the end of the day bars matter and Meek pretty much confirmed that he isn't on Drakes level. I think there could have been ways to better expose Drake if this was his goal without making himself look like a fool on Twitter.

Meek is just an hater, can't get down with that.

Damn how must it feel to be Meek right now watchng the entirety of Twitter make fun of him.

But as they say, no such thing as bad publicity. He'll lose "street rep" or whatever the fuck-if he even had any to begin with, but I think he'll be better off in the long run due to this. His name is everywhere right now.
His name us out there... But not for the right reasons. Really interested to see how this plays out in the long run... His next LP won't be out for a while.

Dude let the success get to his head. Having Nicki and a hot album got him overconfident and I guess he tried to do some alpha male bullshit. Nothing like a good backfire.

Dudes need to learn...you don't come at the 6gawd.

my posts are "MEH"
All these random companies commenting on social media has me looking at this "beef" funny...

Exactly...
 
Exactly.... Non of these companies gave a damn about rap, now they're spewing every chance they get....

These companies do this whenever anything big is trending. Same thing happened during the World Cup when Brazil got slaughtered. Same thing during the Mayweather fights. Don't try and turn it into something it's not.

He called drake out on not writing his shit.. the whole beef spiraled out of control and became bigger than it should have because of Twitter.

I hate how everyone, who most likely doesn't even listen to rap, come out the woodwork to spew bs like this. Just hopping on the latest trend like the sheep they are to seem "cool" to all of their so called fans....

It's wack!

How do you know kelly devine isnt about that rap & hip-hop life?

she was a vixen on:

Seems like this was a solo thing... It probably would have made a stronger impression if the MMG/Rick Ross or Nicki would somehow side with him. But it's like everyone knows that was a dumb unnecessary move.

You know for sure Nicki isn't going to side with Meek, she'll try her best to stay out of it. After all she made Meek apologize.

I'm on my tablet right now, but the bottom of meek mills Wikipedia says:

Death
Meek Mill was later found dead hanging from the ceiling in his Toronto hotel room Back to Back shortly after Twitter negatively reacted to his Drake rebuttal.
 
Goddamn, I thought both efforts were lame, but Meek lost this because of twitter.(and the fact that his comeback is literally unintelligible) For every single punchline Drake didn't have in his verses twitter had like 20. I'm fairly sure I died of laughter a while ago and my ghost is typing this shit out. This is probably the best worst beef I ever had. I'm serious this shit is undercooked filet mignon. Meek shoulda stayed in the Lab. Fuck it dude should have hired a ghostwriter and a producer to do this shit.

Exactly...

Shit is corny and suspect. When you got the 3 P's politicians, porn stars, and planned parenthood throwing commentary in. If anything it's a revelation at current state of hip hop and it buffoonery. And cats want to know why hip hop record ain't selling. Damn shame.

You're kidding yourself if you think the same thing wouldn't have happened in 2001 when Takeover dropped if social media existed as it does now.

The fact that everyone has an opinion that you can read in a matter of seconds is just a sign of the times and nothing to do with the quality of hip hop.
 
I just don't get it. If you're the one to light the fire on the grill you're beefing on. How the fuck are you not prepared to come out swinging. Meek could have had 90% of his Drake diss track pre-written. It's not like there's a lack of ammo either, he probably could have scoured the internet for Drake the type of dude memes and come out with a better diss track than this shit. I was hating on drake a while ago because his shit was lame but this meek shit is just amazingly wack.

Drake got peed on by TI's drunk friend Cap at the Takers premiere in Hollywood. (or so I heard from reliable sources)

https://twitter.com/JuliaBeverly/status/626988012468047872


Julia Beverly ✔@JuliaBeverly
Story I heard: Cap was fresh out of the Feds & drunk during the premiere, peed in the aisle & on Drake. He got clowned for not reacting.

Meek wins flawless victory
Eh. "Left condoms on your baby seat"

No one really cared Jay was fucking Nas baby mama. Most people would tell you Ether > Takeover and ain't no one even remember/heard Supa Ugly.

Just having a personal story like that isn't enough to win. You need the better song and Meek didn't have that.

Lol no...

So a drunk dude accidently pissed on pissed on Drake and suddenly Meeks rap and delivery aren't complete shit?

The fact that he has to bring up shit that happened 5 years ago is telling. He was fine with all that shut when they recorded a Amen or Rico... It's just a bad look.

Dropping facts is great and all... But the track is weak, he should have just used twitter for getting those out.

Best part is, 90% of the people making of fun Drake wouldn't have done anything either.
Yeah, not having an immediate reaction if a drunk grown up person acts weird is normal. I would be shocked/surprised as well at first. Especially if you don't know the Person..wht did they expect... Drake to beat up a drunk friend of TI? Drake isn't that type of person and never claimed to be that guy.

Your girl is more famous and you open for her vs. You got peed on and didn't do anything about it

Advantage Meek

Nondescript claims of snitching vs actual proof that you didn't write your own records

Advantage Meek

Meek is winning bruh.

Not even that, it's TI's entourage...TI usually rolls with quite the number of people. And history shows that TI entourage has no problem beating your ass if they feel disrespected.

Maybe if he knew how to make a good song with that content, sure. Dudes rapping with marbles in his mouth and cutaways every 15 seconds.

Everyone and their mom seems to disagree with you, but then again you seem really enamoured with the piss story so maybe that hits harder for you than most.
 
Lmao, claiming Meek won because someone else pissed on Drake is like saying Jay beat Nas because Beyonce. No third party is saving either of them from losing their respective battle. Hell, at this point even if Meek won, he still lost lol

Ima pee on some of yall. Wont shit happen to me I guess.

Difference is, no one is scared of you, your own kids probably aren't scared of you. If like someone peed on you and you turned around and saw 10 dudes who look fresh outta prison who probably have weaponry on them...you'd turn your ass right back around too.

Fine I'll fucking tweet your shit then.

Yeah, ref tracks won't matter to the masses. Miller is credited on the album. Drake never explicitly denied it, though you could say he never explicitly claimed he wrote it either.

For some hardcore hip hop fans, the ref tracks mean something. For the rest of the world, which Drake is gunning for, they don't give a shit. Meek is caught in this weird authenticity trap that nobody really asked for him to spring. The Puffy punch out bar was OK. The golden shower though... Maybe Meek is holding onto the answer for that with a second track?

Yeah, this beef might not be up to old standards but I think the crossmedia tilt Drake (or whoever in his camp planned it) took is ultimately more entertaining. The B2B cover is surface deep, but even that digs deeper than Meek photoshopping Drake onto Millivanilli's head or making a ghost of the OVO owl logo. Don't even get me started on the Undertaker sample. That's corny as fuck. It's like his own camp bought into that joke wrestling GIF where the Undertaker/Meek gets rocked.

Meek and his entire camp should've known not to come out with some unintelligible shit with 50 different beats on it that sounds like it's that one track on a mixtape you delete once you finish the entire thing. That's why the internet is trying to grill him right now. Again, they don't give a shit about the ref tracks.

But whatever I'm a casual hip hop fan who doesn't even like Drake and didn't know who the fuck Meek was until 5 days ago. Piss on me in a movie theatre, I guess.

Yeah, plus Drake and TI are.. Well at least they were cool back then since Drake was a feature on Poppin Bottles.

Calling someone out for behaving like 99% of people would is weird, straight up common sense. Not letting myself getting beaten up or killed because a drunk dude can't aim.
 
It's not like Woes had any real lyrical content anyway. It was all about the melody and sound. There was literally nothing there to steal as far as wordplay. No one cared about a single lyric in that track.

"Countin money you know how it goes"
Can't wait to hijack that line.

I'm the 1 percent that's not getting peed on then.

Y'all are weird, lol
