Philadelphia rapper meek mill recently accused drake of using ghostwriters, spurring the two to release diss tracks aimed at each phillips/getty phillips/getty performs at finsbury park in london, england in june. Philadelphia rapper meek mill recently accused drake of using ghostwriters, spurring the two to release diss tracks aimed at each phillips/getty first weekend of august saw the coronation of a new king of hip-hop. For others, it was a moment of acquiescence — that after all of the hits, the sales, the hits, the record-breaking chart appearances, the hits, the ubiquity, the popularity and the hits, drake had become undeniable by not only his sheer undeniability, but by the sheer undeniability of his swift and total dominance over friend-turned-rival meek mill, over the course of a week and a half, for no king is king with only power reserved; power must be actualized and demonstrated. In late july, meek mill was reaching only dreamed-of heights — his sophomore album, dreams worth more than money, released at the end of june, had spent two weeks atop the billboard 200 charts; he was in a relationship with nicki minaj, undoubtedly the most powerful and desired female artist in hip-hop and one of the most powerful contemporary pop icons on the planet. Yet, apparently apropos of nothing, meek took to twitter to launch accusations against drake, who has a close, sometimes tense relationship with minaj. Pop stars who can't sing become career superstars and edm djs who don't mix records regularly make millions, but the ethos of hip-hop has always been against such bait-and-switches, even as it's grown into a billion-dollar industry.
Rappers like jay z hint at providing the service for others; artists like skillz have made careers of it, presumably making more money from ghostwriting than their own records. Meek's accusations against drake — which were later backed by reference tracks made by little-known atlanta rapper quentin miller that were played on air by hot 97 dj funkmaster flex — mark the first time a generation is dealing with the question of ownership of lyrical composition in rap. Following meek mill's allegations, drake's producer noah "40" shebib came out in defense of drake, ignoring the existence of the reference tracks. Likewise, quentin miller denied ever being a ghostwriter for drake — which counts for nothing as it's what he would be contractually obligated to say, were he actually a ghostwriter. Pro-drake forces and miller have downplayed miller's involvement in drake's recording, noting that he's listed in the credits for multiple songs on if you're reading this it's too late — which could mean that he simply suggested a word or two to drake. A drake-assisted song that appears on meek's dreams worth more than money, but also has a miller reference track.
Meek once beefed with his labelmate wale over not promoting his album, which is something he also mentioned as one of his gripes against drake. It seems silly, but to mill, not tweeting his album is akin to not showing up to his baby shower, and providing him a verse written by someone else is like having a third party pick out his birthday present. When funkmaster flex promised to not only premiere mill's response to drake, but to also play more incriminating material on the radio, it felt like the threat of a man ready to burn everything, consequences be damned. And the lack of interest in the truth of the story spreads to — conspiracy alert — the media and other artists, who have remained largely silent on the subject in specific, opting to talk about ghostwriting as a whole, get in on the memes while they can, or ignore the story altogether. By contrast, meek's response song, "wanna know," fell flat on many levels — he took too long to join a fight he started, and moreover, he tried to act as his own lawyer in the court of public opinion without taking the jury's make up into account. Meek attempted to reframe the argument, but the discussion had moved past what it was once about — the notion of authorship — and onto memes and jokes, which is what drake's early-august assault capitalized on.
It's been widely considered a loss for meek mill and the most devastating, almost surgical, dismantling of a viable contender that hip-hop has ever seen. Any response made by meek at this point is about cauterizing a wound and figuring out how to move forward.
