New Music: Drake “Charged Up”
July 26, 2015 @ 1:19 PM EDT
Song
Sound Sound Sound.
The gloves are off and the love is done. During yesterday’s broadcast of OVO Radio, Drake premiered his latest recording aimed at his distractors. Meek Mill seems unfazed. During the show, Drizzy also premiered “Right Hand” and his “Cha Cha” remake, “Hotline Bling”.
Listen to the entire episode below.
How come yall late on posting this tho???? You guys take the day off on saturdays or somethin?
Meek did some exclusive interviews for them a few weeks back and to show loyalty back to him they waited until the chatter died down a lil b4 they put it on RR. So in essence this post is kinda of saying… “We cover hip-hop objectively”. But they put it on late to kinda allude to their bias. Hope that helps answer your question. Can’t be mad at em tho.
(Definitely can’t use the Saturday off excuse. Posting on the site can be done as easily as sending a tweet.)
I’m just curious, how is it so many of you take shots at this website yet seem to be on it EVERYDAY?!?!!? That’s like constantly talking about how disgusting some food is, yet eating it all the time!!!!
Some people think ESPN is biased toward SEC Football. Doesn’t mean that Sportscenter isn’t a good show. I don’t know about others, but if you’re asking about my comment in particular. I think RR is a good site, biased… Yeah… but nevertheless a solid site. Hope that helped alleviate your concern. In other words to your analogy: Nobody’s saying the food taste bad, we’re just saying it ain’t hard to tell that the chef likes cooking chicken. Makes sense? That’s all.
Some people love the NY Times, bro. That’s not saying that they love everything that the NY Times print and the way they go about their angle on some stories. 1.
Much respect to you & your comment. I like your analogy & in theory I probably wasn’t talking about you directly. There are people who post on this site daily like it’s their job to do so & almost everything they post is negative toward the site, now to use your analogy unlike ESPN which I’m a fan of but also don’t like everything they promote, there are hundreds of Hip Hop sites with news, videos etc. My gripe is why keep coming to this site to take shots at the people who run the site when you have plenty of other sites to go to?! A die hard sports fan who hates ESPN, can really only watch Fox Sports 1, NBCSN or CBS Sports Netswork. These “Rap Radar Haters” options are not limited to just 4 dedicated Hip Hop sites. PEACE!!!
Respect Bro for adding Solid Points to a Good Discussion.
(Just for the record, I like Drake’s music more than I like Meek’s.)
However, as a fan of the art… I truly feel that Drake should have to suffer some serious loss for having someone else write those songs tho. That’s not how the art has been promoted throughout the years. This beef stuff is cool and adds some excitement to the genre right now, but our eyes need to stay on the ball and Drake needs to be held accountable for “written songs” not hooks but “songs”. And that’s coming objectively from a fan. In all fairness, he doesn’t deserve a pass just because he’s on top right now…
They put it out late because they aren’t slaves to this machine.other sites had it.there was a dope event yesterday.why read all into it…you won’t find the holy grail.
Not reading too far into it. It’s more so about reasonableness was where I based my opinion. RapRadar is arguably the leading site for hip-hop related news and events. That’s why we all come here. They are a website and not a magazine. Good informational websites (like RR) rely on accuracy, exclusiveness, and above all TIMELINESS (which goes to your relevance as a site). That’s what makes the internet a popular forum for sites like this. It wouldn’t have made them a “slave” to post it yesterday. It actually would have alluded more to their credibility and relevance (being the top site with the accessibility to the content and news about the event first). Similar to the Washington Post breaking some news about the President. Doesn’t make them a slave to break the news timely. It’s makes them credible and “on their job”. Similarly, it doesn’t mean I’m searching for the “Holy Grail” by pointing that out for a co-reader. I mean… unless you have a better explanation for being late to the party with posting the track… I’m gonna ride with the “politics” as the reason. (And again… There’s nothing wrong with that. We all have our allies that we’re gonna show sort of loyalty to.) I’m still down with RR and like the way they present their content (most of the times).
It took you guys more than half a day to post this. Smh the politics involved with this site is ridiculous. Just post real shit when it happens and stop with the nonsense.
RR team mmg surprised they posted it at all
“I stay silent cause we at war and I’m very patient/Six God is watching, I hope you’re prepared to face him”
I think it’s hysterical how Meek and all the haters now act like Drake has never written any of his raps. Ever. I’m glad Drizzy didn’t call him out by name. That would probably just give Meek a sales boost. Fuck that! Let him wallow in his middling status. Drizzy has handled this entire situation masterfully.
Meanwhile Meek is still tweeting and mouthing off like his girl and TSwift on social media… That nigga about to get washed lol
Everybody baits Drizzy to take the gloves off, until he does
I liked drake’s response it was simple calm and factual… Meek is definitely gonna come back aggressively with more direct jabs
hopefully Aubrey will respond to that with something a bit more “stay scheming” like
Overall I think drake prolly gonna take the W in this war
Meek seems to emotional and hotheaded
I totally agree with you jimj87 & Observer
drake is calm getting all his facts to clown meek make him look like a simp meek dun fuc up
Stay scheming was a good verse, but Common’s reply was better. People nowadays win these “battles” off of status. Meek beat Cassidy off of status, but Cassidy response was better. Charged up was smooth. Just like Takeover. What you expect? He would be totally out of his character, if he made something “hard”. Based off this response Drake is winning. Not because of status, but because it was a better response.
Finally some admits Cassidy diss records were better, and you’re right Common’s response was better too… It’s good to know some knows Hip-Hop
*someone
Naz won against hov but his fans are like nah jay z won foh
And that’s a fact I always tell people Nas is a better rapper; but Hov is a better business man… Some might not agree with me but I even think Ja Rule (the old Ja Rule) was a better rapper then 50 Cent, but Fif is a better business man for sure!
true u can win a battle on your fans status and timing ross was not lyrically better but his beats (music he picked)and delivery was on piont
the Ross and Fif subject is a little touchy for me because I really think lyrically Fif wasn’t ready for Ross because that was around the time Ross was in that lyrical zone were his music was really touching people; but if their was a round two I think Fif would kill Ross…
Jay won the war by signing Nas
You feel like “Ether” was stronger than “Super Ugly” and “Takeover” How? Jay talked straight to that man with facts only. Nas talked about the label name, his partner and a few witty rap lines nothing personal. That fact is his bodyguards verse on “Oochie Wally” WAS better than his. He DID hit his baby mother. He DID show him his first tech. So what Rockefeller died of AIDS? So what he look like a camel? For years I’ve heard this argument that Nas won and it baffles me every time. So please explain this to me once and for all..How the hell did Nas win that battle? How Sway?!?!
Thanks !!
Some logic
Nas is my favorite rapper ever. I didn’t even really start liking Jay- until BP1. Really became interested after the black album. I used to argue this all the time.
In that beef, Hov slaughtered Nas.
Cassidiy won but his time as rap icon expired fans moved to the next new thing and he has the syle and delivery of when he started that was booring to fans listen to so long and same punchlines
I just think today’s Hip-Hop attention span is sort too, when Cassidy responded with that other song that was super long people judged that response as being boring, but that diss was actually lyrical!
I def agree with Cassidy but I mean I think common responded outta emotion
although its all a matter of opinion but even hiphop heads agreed that drake won that round with common
common def came with a hard aggressive verse
Drake responded with a third of his verse addressing Common….. That wasn’t enough. Common did respond emotionally.. He did the same thing Nas did or what he did before against Cube…. Drake’s wave won that battle…. His response wasn’t enough to say he won….. People just gave that to him…. His response this time was on point and in his lane….. If meek mill response is on Twitter or whack, he would have earned this W…
He responded out of emotion against Cube too…… drake’s wave won that battle…. He barely even spit anything against Common…. A third of a verse? The coldest line was about Kobe…..If meek keeps responding on Twitter or if his response is whack then drake would have earned this W…… With a good response.
NO MATTER WHAT MEEK DROPS TODAY ON FLEX IT WONT BE GOOD ENOUGH!!! THE CROWD ALREADY PICKED THE WINNER SMH
I’m not going to say that much. If it’s legit then it’s legit. I just know he can’t be on some I’m going to split you like a banana split with my ak type shit….
lost all respect for Tweek Mill – first you start the beef and say your street crazy and don’t mess with street dudes and you don’t have a button, blah blah and you don’t take shit back. THEN THE FUCKING VERY NExT DAY! you start sneak apologising and saying shout out to drake let him be great, and explaining your self… let me re phrase that – justifying yourself (in hopes that 6god) won’t get mad – saying you the “REALEST” . So drake just straight up disses you on a song and not on twitter. And what do you do? you fucking jump on twitter and respond there, are you a fucking rapper? are you the same Meek claiming – “Whoever thought lil’ ol’ Meek Milly’d pass Jigga?
I’m just thinkin’ a tad bigger” – on Stand Up on your album? OMG FUCK OUTTA HERE Tweet Mill. Pass Jigga tweeting maybe. So you have a chance to respond in a hip hop manner and back up all that tough talk – instead you show us that your basically an internet thug. Not only did you fail to show up at Hot 97 like a lil biatch scared cat – but you hop on stage and start fucking expounding to a nicki minaj crowd how your only upset he gave you a verse written by someone else…Instead of just dropping a fucking song. But lets be real you couldn’t even handle Control i guess it was too much to ask for. Why don’t you take some of that yelling and yell a diss. I mean it was handed to you- it would have been SOOOOOOO FUCKING EASY – so many things you could have dissed drake on
1. getting slapped by diddy
2. getting extorted by birdman
3. using a fucking ghost writer and claiming crown – even after rapping on his song FEAR, and i quote “And I could use a writer just to balance out my flows
But I never share my thoughts, this is all a nigga knows
And every time I try, it opens up my eyes
These verses are a chance to be remembered and reprised
And I would be performing this as long as I’m alive
So every word I utter will be mine”
4. kissing madonna
5. dropping a mediocare album what the sales and charts say
6. fucking the girl of HIS dreams
… could go on forever – this would have been like taking candy from a baby for you and you dropped the ball…LAMMMMMMEEEEEE
Drake will win because of status not the actual war. This was the weakes diss in hiphop history, he didn’t even disclaim the ghostwriting.
The problem is most Draje fans aren’t hip hop heads so they eat anything he says including this bullshit of a track.
Hip hop is slowly but surely dying
If facts make a Hip-Hop diss weak, then I guess Drake should have done what Meek Mill is doing making fake threats, snitching, acting star struck around hoes and sending shots via. Twitter… That’s the problem with your comment nowhere did you address the HOE Shit Meek doing right now, did you forget already? Drake kept it 100, an chill…. Just sit back an enjoy the show, this beef is going to show how Meek Mill should stop talking like he runs Hip-Hop… Drake bars got him, just like them same bars on “Amen” got Meek on the radio, just like Louie V Gutta wrote “Young & Gettin’ It” for Meek Mill; don’t bite the hand!
Meek shouldn’t have called him out, agreed. But never again in Drake’s life should he ever call himself the best. Someone came at you with allegations and you didn’t even address them
The track was weak, Drake’s persona is fake and this was probably all for publicity
No disrespect but the “probably all for publicity” thing only applies to Meek Mill not Drake… Also why hasn’t anyone pointed out the fact that Meek Tweeted “everyone knows Drake has always had a ghostwriter?” Well if EVERYONE knew why did Meek take all them verses from Drake which helped him sell albums,singles and get radio play… Drake is being himself Meek is playing lover boy/super thug… When we talk Hip-Hop Drake’s resume speaks for itself, when we talk Meek we talk one song the “Intro”… The facts still remain Drake used a reference track, and Meek Mill lied about Drake not writing all his stuff and Meek Mill lied about Louie V Gutta writing “Young & Gettin’ it” and hooks for Meek. So whose fake? I think Meek Mill is…
You don’t get it. I agree Meek Mill was wrong! Pussy move!
But Drake’s entire persona is fake, he claims to be this fearless guy who thinks he’s the best rapper when in reality he’s a pop artist who doesn’t want real confrontation
Drake is still acting
I’ll end this discussion with “Look up at the scoreboard”… You know who said that? Rick Ross the same guy who should have told Meek Mill to look up at the scoreboard… Pac said it best “Don’t go to war unless your money right”, if it was really taken to that point of confrontation Drake could easily get Meek touched (that’s some street talk for you) since you talking about a confrontation which we have never seen DRAKE OR MEEK have in real life… Meek ain’t no fighter he’s a guy with money and yes men, the same as Drake…
It sounds like you’re a Drake stan, yes Drizzy is more successful but his persona is such a facade to me. And I know you’re not comparing his street credibility to Meek’s because that’s not in question. Meek shouldn’t have come for Drakes emotional ass by Drakes response was weak. Period
Emotion makes the best music, thank god Pac and Nas are emotional guys who share their emotion, they don’t play tough all the time like Meek Mill but then act like a hoe around women… Actually i’m a Meek Mill fan the same fan who spent my money on his music, the same fan who thought his single with Boosie was dope when people was clowning it, the same fan who went out and brought his first album during hurricane season… You are team Meek Mill; I don’t do the lame team shit. and fuck all the “period” shit until Meek tells the truth about his ghostwriter Louie V Gutta homie he ain’t getting a dollar from, maybe he can still get your money but not mine…. Can’t tell another nigga business without telling your own business, and that’s old street code…
Don’t ever compare REAL MC’s to that pop artist Drake. He’s Justin Timberlake who raps
Nah I’m team real and I’ve addressed that Meek was a bitch for calling Drizzy out but I will not sit here and act like Drake’s response was good cuz it was bullshit
yes yes let the hate flow….
If I wish you called me out on being a liar but you didn’t cuz I speak truth. Drake fans are the new Belibers
if bullshit was the truth you’d be MLK.
Lmao REAL MCS. Read books on the worlds top Artists. Very few of them are hardcore MCs comparing their pen to swords lol
Stand like you are why hip hop is fucked up, there are no standards anymore.
No hip hop is ‘fucked up’ because it is a relevant artform anymore. No one wants to listen to some guy getting lyrical over a drum break. Its corny
Why does his persona or any artists persona should matter?
You either like the music or not.
Ross music will always be dope to me, cop or not.
Drake is in the music industry not the drug game.
He makes dope music and its popping right now. He’s the beat right now, writer or no writer.
I really don’t care about another man’s persona. I just want dope music.
I can’t be mad bro, at least you’re keeping it G. But as far as my opinion goes I can’t take him seriously as a person or an MC of any sort.
No one cares about MCs lmao
MC Jay
MC Kanye
MC Drake
See how corny and outdated that sounds? 2015 man, a new game with new rules
Bro chill you going extra hard and skimming over the facts.
You said “The facts still remain Drake used a reference track…”
Then you proceeded to say… “Meek Mill lied about Drake not writing all his stuff…”
How did he lie if Drake did in fact use a reference track?
You do understand that Drake using a reference track word-for-word, is in fact him “not writing all his stuff”.
Let’s ensure we are clear about this.
Now let me break it down for you since you seem to be missing the point, “Meek Mill lied about Drake not writing all his stuff…” is in reference to people saying stupid shit like “Drake came into the game with a ghost writer”, Now let’s break down the “The facts still remain Drake used a reference track…” a reference track is no different from your friends telling you to say a verse a different way with a different feel (to make it sound better), which is the same thing all artist an their friends do even Jay Z when working with The-Dream. Now that’s out they way, explain to me why Louie V Gutta who wrote “Young & Gettin It” for Meek Mill is nowhere to be found on the credits for Meek Mill’s last album, but Drake (WHO PEOPLE SAY IS FAKE) was honest an gave QM who is Quentin Miller album credit? This is a simple question, what gives Meek the right to try an expose Drake without exposing himself?
Using a reference track is in NO way like having your friends who are IN the studio with you throw you a line or two or make suggestions.
Using a reference track is you PAYING somebody to write YOUR bars for you. This isn’t just a suggestion. When you take those bars and spit them as yourself you appear fraudulent…
Did you listen to the 10 bands reference track or are you just talking for talking sake?
After taking the hook and Q. Miller wrote and changing one phrase he then opens up the verse with “I can tell you how it happened, I can tell you bout them safe house nights out in Calabasas”
It’s like, can you really tell me about it? Quentin Miller wrote it and you spit it.
You’ve got to open your eyes. I’m not saying some of the greatest rappers have never gotten help by ppl in the room or the producer they are working with but what I am saying is using a reference track for YOUR BARS, any at all, ain’t cool. I don’t even care how much you tweaked it. It ain’t cool.
Outsourcing your rhymes ain’t cool. You can’t spin that shit and convince me.
Dude ain’t his Ghost writer, he is a credited writer on 6 songs. He is HIRED help. Niggaz got Rhymes for hire and you think that’s OK?
Funny part is how I answered your previous questions and you just skipped completely over my question (maybe you ain’t see it or you doing like everyone else acting like Meek never had help)… Don’t ask me no more questions until you answer this question… Louie V Gutta who wrote “Young & Gettin It” for Meek Mill is nowhere
to be found on the credits for Meek Mill’s last album, but Drake (WHO
PEOPLE SAY IS FAKE) was honest an gave QM who is Quentin Miller album
credit? This is a simple question, what gives Meek the right to try an
expose Drake without exposing himself?
I really didn’t address it because I only know sparse details on the situation.
If Louie V Gutta wrote young n gettin it, he was in his camp right? He was fucking with Dreamchasers. He was there when the song was being written and recorded. How much was his input? What can you tell me about that?
When Meek made the allegations against Drake it was still up in the air but it was enough to cause alarm. When Flex released the reference track it was the nail in the coffin for me because the day b4 I was telling ppl, “I gotta hear that reference track”.
Then flex exposed it, now he has 3 more?!?!
It doesn’t look good.
But to answer your question, what is there for Meek to expose about himself?
You are on here telling everybody Louie V wrote for Meek and Meek should expose himself, so tell me why Louie V Gutta ain’t saying what you saying? Why isn’t he saying “yo Meek fake as fuck exposing Drake when I wrote Young N Gettin It” …?
Instead days b4 the beef L.V. was retweeting Meek’s tweet about going gold and a gold plague coming.
And even tho he made several tweets supporting Drake even tho it doesnt seem Drake is writing ALL of his lyrics, there is still not one word about Meek being fake because he wrote for him.
So if Louie V Gutta ain’t saying it RIGHT NOW. I don’t care if he said it before or not. If he ain’t yapping about it now, its likely whatever capacity L.V. helped Meek with Young N Gettin It and anything else, it wasnt as bad as Drake using a niggaz reference track, so if L.V. aint talking about it, then why are u?
That Calabasas line rubbed me the wrong way from jump. Ain’t no serious work being sold in Calabasas. Especially where a nigga can rap about it openly. Plus that mf from Toronto and just moved there. Literally, my homeboy and I were just arguing about Drake’s fakeness two weeks ago over that line.
Once I heard the reference track, it all made sense. Drake was being a poser bitch, as usual.
Well the calabasas line was a metaphor, heard of those? He records his music there, aka his ‘product’ and its in calabasas aka the safe house.
Shit guys, comprehension skills.
Metaphorically speaking, drawing a parallel between selling dope and living in one of the more affluent, cookie cutter neighborhoods in America is weak as fuck.
He’s always tip toeing the line of hood. When he’s a bitch.
You take music way too seriously.
Did you listen to the reference track?
If Q. Miller wrote it and Drake spit it word for word how is it a metaphor for him making his “product” aka music there?
Q. Miller wrote it for whatever his own reasons were, Drake liked it, spit it word for word and passed it off as his own, now you out here saying its a metaphor for him recording his music there aka his “product”.
Do you see how far you reached for that?
But let’s run with your logic for a second.
Even if Drake records some of his music at a studio in Calabasas, Q. Miller wrote that line and recorded it on a reference track for him to spit.
I dunno what you think writers do, but when King Los wrote Diddy’s Same Damn Time verse, he wrote about Diddy’s life. So regardless of if everything in the verse is a fact, King Los wrote it for Diddy. Just like Q. Miller at the very least, wrote the hook and first verse on 10 Bands… And made other yet to be revealed contributions to 5 other songs from the same project.
How is that not fraudulent to you?
Of course i listened to the reference track but once again that still doesn’t tell us anything.
Drake and QM could have legit wrote that together and Q laid it down himself to give a full vision for the song.
Once again, only in rap do people care about this. Consumers and music fans care about the final product and that’s it. 10 Bands is dope. If QM came out with his version would you listen to his instead?
Everyone who gets paid to be creative on cue (no pun intended) has writers. From rappers, singers, film writers, journalists, and damn near every creative field.
Funny how mill ‘exposes’ drake but he and his girl both have writers and its common knowledge.
I still don’t see where the shame is.
When hip-hop was created, it was kids in hood rhyming over drum breaks on soul/jazz/reggae records.
They couldn’t sing. They werent technically gifted like Stevie. They weren’t dancers like Michael. All they had was their words. Just like how a singer would be evaluated by if their voice was more harmonic than someone else’s, a rapper was evaluated by if their words were more clever/creative than the other person.
Over the years, hip-hop evolved and now we have various forms of rap (trap rap, pop rap, horror core etc.). These forms of the genre are for those who might not be as lyrically gifted, but can make songs that move specific groups of people in different settings.
But still to this day, to be considered the best hip-hop lyricist, you have to be able to be more creative in rhyme schemes, cadence, storytelling and even punchlines than the other person. Your words are still paramount. A lyricist not writing his own words is like a true vocalist lip synching on all their records and performances (e.g. Milli Vanilli)
You not caring about Drake writing his lyrics shows you are a rap fan, not a hip-hop fan. You are right, I do take my music serious. It’s deeply rooted in things that are too long to explain in this post.
Drake can never claim to best lyricist/rapper alive when he has someone else writing his stuff.
No one really cares about hip hop then, not only me but the majority of the world. Sorry *kanye shrug*
Being the best lyricist is a category no one but 3% of the worlds true hardcore hip hop heads preaching the 4 pillers of hip hop cares about.
Look whats hot in billboard or in the streets. Its not pure lyrical content. No one i know bumps lupe or slaughter recreationally sorry.
If people really cared why isn’t it being listened to everywhere?
What’s hot on Billboard? Do you really want to compare real hip-hop artists albums sales to rap artists?
Jay, Nas, Em and Kanye 30+ number one ALBUMS between them.
Future, Ross, Meek, Drake have about 10 total.
And don’t give me that age shit because we can go to individual sales. And even break it down by how high their singles chart on the Hot 100.
You like Pop Rap. Keep bumping that Silento.
Well jay em and kanye are actually artists first and foremost that just happen to rap.
And the age thing does matter, the rappers you named are 40+ and sold music in a time where people bought music.
I dont see the world rioting over a nas album or show lol
Rap is better and stronger than ever. Its actually music compared to hip hop
There is a reason why Hip Hop culture cares about whether or not the rapper is actually writing his lyrics.
How can we as fans judge who is a great rapper? And right now I’m speaking from an artistic perspective.
In RnB, if somebody is a great singer it matters to the genre. Of course there have been many great songs but the legends are some of the greatest voices we’ve ever heard.
In Hip Hop when somebody says, top 5/top 10 dead or alive, the lists usually highlight some of the greatest lyricists the culture has ever witnessed. Being a lyricist who has leveraged that skill into great songs AND albums, you are revered for being truly skillful at painting pictures by stringing words together with rhymes that are so intricate they are almost profound.
If when B.I.G said:
“Here’s a tissue, stop your blood clot crying — The kids, the dog, everybody dying — no lying
So don’t you get suspicious
I’m Big Dangerous you’re just a Lil Vicious
As I leave my competition, respirator style — Climb the ladder to success escalator style”
Or when Jay said:
“Look, it’s out of my hands
And you getting money around here, it’s not in the plans
So hop your ass out of that van, head back to Kansas
I’m sending niggas back up in campuses
Chance is slimmer than that chick in Calvin Klein pants is
Let me guess, they said it was money around here
And the rest is me stopping you from getting it, correct?
Sorry to hear that, my guess is you got work at the hotel
I’ll take care of that, you’ll soon see
Now please give me the room key
You’re twitching, don’t do that, you making me nervous
My crew, well, they do pack, them dudes is murderers
So please would you, put your hand back in sight
They don’t like to see me nervous you can understand that, right?”
We can’t deny that these bars are amazing, these elite MCs wrote those bars, lyrically that is phenomenal. That’s just the lyrics, we can’t analyze the flow but to have the right flow over the beat with those lyrics, that’s Hip Hop greatness.
If those bars and flow were outsourced or think tanked, then it loses its greatness for me.
I’m not saying 2-5 ppl cant help make your music greater, of course it can.
But which is harder, which one do I respect more?
I respect the guy who wrote his bars and also made amazing music aswell. All day everyday.
The thing that needs to be said is no one cares about lyrics. There is this niche of 3% of hardcore rap heads that devote there for lyrical content and triple entendres.
In thousands of years no one will remember those verses. They will remember “Juicy” and “Empire State Of Mind” cause there dope SONGS. Why you think rap has got so melodic? People want real music. Lyrics with notes, not metaphors and alliterations.
In thousands of years, the majority of Hip Hop Top 5s will be long forgotten. ARTISTS not rappers survive.
Jay Kanye Drake and rappers of that nature are actual ARTISTS.
Whoever says that Drake career is tarnished or over is delusional lmao. The people have always cared about the end product not anything else.
Drake has consistently dropped quality music and as an artist, that’s all your concer should be.
Kanye has dropped some of music’s best albums, and I don’t see no one else caring he has scores of people helping him.
Buy any album (rap included) and open the booklet and read. It tells you the teams of people who were involved in a song. And gasp! There are usually songs the artist didn’t write solo.
The guy who makes amazing music and only writes his lyrics/’bars’ is extremely few and far in between. And once again, the world does not care how ‘lyrical’ a verse is or who wrote it. They care about great fully structured songs they can sing to and relate to.
DS2 has the world on smash right now and Future isn’t saying a damn thing for 18 songs. But the melody and songs are ridiculous. The music is top of the charts and causing riots for concerts. Even has a lyrical guy like NAS giving praise lmao the irony.
Goes to show you, the finished product matters, not who wrote it lol
150k means you have the World on smash? Got damn you are ignorant.
I’m done.
In a world where no where is buying records?
Everyone is doing those numbers.
Except for these real mcs pushing like 20k lol
Yet Future who ain’t saying shit, only sold 135k… While artist who are saying shit like Cole and Kendrick are doubling those numbers.
Check back what future numbers look like this week for even more laughs.
Hey you think people don’t care about lyrics but you are wrong, the reason so many ppl are commenting on all this activity should show you people care about lyrics. The reason the control verse shock things up in the first place was because of lyrics.
Of course ppl are going to remember every songs that was on any NOW CD because pop songs are going to continue to be repacked for them to remember.
But history my friend never stops there. That’s like saying history was only going to remember Elvis, but forget Nat King Cole.
Sure Elvis sells more than Nat King Cole but get in a conversation with anybody who knows what they are talking about and they know Nat King Cole was the shit.
Whether it’s lyrics, the beat, the music or more than likely the combination of it all, ppl and history will remember what made an impact.
What made an impact in a person’s life or the culture are a whole. I feel like lyrics weigh heavily in that quation. So lyrics matter.
And BTW I’ve read the credits on all the albums I listen too.
Yes their are great songs that have additional writers who wrote hooks and melodies for the people singing on them.
They also have producers and writers who wrote the original song sampled getting credit on those songs aswell.
You see the thing is, most ppl see additional names and never look them up to at least find out who they are and what their contribution to a song may have been.
The ppl I hail as great lyricists, you aren’t finding no other mc’s penning their verses. I couldn’t care less if somebody else wrote the hook.
Check Jay-Z albums fam, every additional name you see in the credits is usually a producer, producer/writer of the song being sampled and if somebody sang the hook, the person who wrote it is credited. Of course the featured artist on the song is also listed if they wrote their verse, if somebody else did, that person is usually credited.
Look, I understand that nobody does it all by themselves. Great songs aren’t just made on their own but if you are capable, you should be penning your own raps. If you care about being a legendary mc and lyricist. If not, you can still be an amazing pop rapper too.
And I don’t get why ppl can’t see that for what it is.
And at the end of the day I’m not saying we can’t go on and enjoy Drake’s music.
I’m not gonna be out at the club hearing a song I know is good music and not enjoy myself but when it comes to speaking about lyricists old and new, Drake no longer has a space in that discussion. I can’t even tolerate it.
That discussion usually only happens on forums like these. The world is much bigger than a website lmao
Young & gettin it was trash & meek didn’t rap at all on that it was all auto tune Luis V specializes at that. He never wrote actual bars you reaching nigga.
Niggas really hate meek because he picking on drake faggot shit 101
Hip hop isn’t dying…its evolving, you just don’t like what it’s evolving into and that’s cool but you can’t stop evolution. Drake will win because he’s a better rapper. Better angles, better delivery, triple entendre’s (which I have never heard Meek do) more concise, more versatile, better song writer (even if other’s wrote songs for him he’s written for others). Meek is better at energy, anthems, intros, gangsta shit, trap hits, stories. This is just a side by side comparison. I think Drakes Angles, delivery and entendres will out shine Meek’s energy and rapid fire bars. Drake talking to him calmly already offset Meeks energy. He gonna come off too emotional. Just my hip hop opinion
You’re right, I don’t like the evolution. Trap music and s few other factors are ruining hiphop for what it used to stand for- the movement. MC’s like Kdot and J.Cole are trying to keep that alive.
Drake is a better rapper than Meek, not debating it. Meek shouldn’t have called him out not debating it
But Drake isn’t a real MC and this whole response proves it. Without him singing R&B records he wouldn’t be anywhere near Kdot or Cole and that’s real.
How can you put value into someone’s angles and entendres when they aren’t writing their own stuff ?
I think he is writing his own stuff, he just got caught with his hand in the cookie jar on this one but we can’t act like “So Far Gone”, “Take Care” & “Nothing Was The Same” didn’t happen. Until I hear reference tracks for that material imma assume those albums were clean
Because the end results matter more.
If meek had BETTER writers maybe I’d bump him more lol
Hip-hop will never die faggot stop saying that shit
Bitch shut up, that phrase doesn’t mean people will stop rapping, rappers will always rap. It means the values and cultures on which it stands for are slowly fading dumbass
Shut faggot I know that was the true meaning of that cliche ass theory. Pussies been claiming that shit for the last 20 years But yet kdot & jcole are selling more than young thug & all that other music youll bitch about. The essence of hip-hop will never die but since ny ain’t at the pinnacle no more & the south been running the game it’s slowly dying. The foundation in which hip-hop was built upon still exist & will always exist nigga.
Bitch shut yo tiger face ass up and give your sister back her Halloween mask. You just named two rappers out of more than a thousand trash rappers so yes it’s slowly fading you imbecile. Only hiphop heads really fw them, in the 80’s they were the standard.
Couldnt agree with you more, and I’m not on either side. I tell you what this is Meek chance to come back with some heat. Better not fuck up and RICO is the best song his album.
your probbaly the same type of person to be mad that floyd mayweather won for outboxing a power hitter.
I think everyone knows he’s doing this for a reason but the diss was weak no matter which way you look at it. If Meek doesn’t respond Drake just looked dumb but let Twitter tell you this song was hard. Like I said Drake fans are the new belibers
Yeah it was kinda weak but I think meek came out of left field with trumped charge lol..
Drake got another diss featuring Daylyt called Uncharged Up.
Shit ain’t real you dumb fuck.
You aint real bitch boy.
Fuckin Drake Stans believe anything on the Internet. Remove yourself from this thread.
Yeah I thought Drake’s last album sucked from start to finish so If I’m a Drake stan then I’m not doing too much stanning. Now remove your life from this world pussy. The song was dope regardless… Kill yourself
That deal with Apple and feeling en”Tidal”ed line was dope
Well said
Drake makes better Music than Meek. Meek is just a rapper but Drake is out here making MUSIC. Meek sets no trends compared to what Drake has done with his sound.
This diss was really a light jab so he can get that poodle to bark and go his hardest while nicki got him on a leash.
This shit is mad moist and dripping with estrogen…. Really?? This is the response? I see the bitch in you, it’s common.
[Mixtape] Bricks Gummbi – I’m On Now :: http://livemixtap.es/qn4 @LiveMixtapes @DJScream @BricksGummbi
I gotta say, Meek sure tweets a lot for a “street nigga.” looking like an emotional trainwreck lmao
ya he just jealous of his fame and trying to overshadow future number one album
Drake wins one again, he spoke on Meek being whipped (Joe Budden did too), he also spoke on Meek snitching (Trey Songz did too), and not helping these rap niggas any more…. Everything he said was true…. Now it’s Meek turn which will consist of yelling, fake threats and Nicki Minaj references… Until Meek Mill keeps it real with the people an tell the truth about Louie V Gutta writing for him I ain’t buying no more of his music… Flex supposed to be releasing Meek’s diss tomorrow and if Meek doesn’t start off the diss with “Yeah Louie V Gutta Wrote For Me” then he fake in my book…. Also RR we need that Outkast and Kanye footage from Pastor Jeezy show, Tidal dropped the ball…
Drake still hasn’t addressed the fact that he uses a ghostwriter…
he did… listen to it again
Why don’t you tell us what line he says then
I know it is not right to promote other websites on here but if you can’t comprehend on couple of listens then Rap Genius is your friend.
Get your trollin ass outta here. I know what he said, this shit was like nursery rhyme level. And other than the first line about it “being staged” nothing in it mentions the fact he’s got at least one and probably a stable of ghost writers
Thank you. He never addressed the issue at hand.
Rap Genius = a bunch of white boys infatuated with rap culture so they decided to transcribe lyrics.
No matter what user-generated translation is on that site, it doesn’t change the fact that Drake didn’t plainly say Meek’s name and that he doesn’t have a ghostwriter.
come live out your dreams up at OVO- we’ll get the bread right and show you the ropes
What does that have to do with a ghostwriter?
he cant flex done dropped the tapes… he probably a co-writer who helps with ideas or what ever he influences his style and he on payrole
Drake stans are terrible at defending this nigga
You can’t respond to this if you’re Meek… I mean it’s just barely a diss track
It is not a diss track more like a warning letting Meek know he don’t want it with Drake.
Bitch shit. Meek called him out by name. aint no warnings when you’ve already been punched.
meek has to reply if u ready to call someone out u have to have a diss record waiting meek in the studio while tweeting bs thinking he already won
Meek diss will be about how rich he is, how much woman he slept with and how his rollie ticks, which he did the same to Cassidy and Social Media said Meek won. So this go round he can’t do that because Drake threw shots directly and stated facts, I doubt Meek diss would be better but we will see.
even if it is better he will loose financially drake fans pay for his music and says meek was yelling and bla bla bla so many excuses to support him i think drake stans are more delusional then 50 stans
rollies dont tick you stupid ass white boy.
the diss track= meh.drake fans delusional thinking meek career dead this is a semi response nothing too much. meek need not reply cuz he losing stock for this fake beef (no one will work with his unstable period having broad who gangsta on twitter) meek replying only gonna make him loose in the end. he is so stupid you got nikki and a number one album u lucky to get a dam drake feature should of just let it slide. this is a win win for drake no matter what his fans gonna be like so what (his fans are not 90’s-2000 hip hop fans they are mostly white suburban kids who do not care as long as its catchy they will buy his album)
Rap Radar still haven’t posted up the 10 Bands ‘reference’ track.
Meek cannot compete with drake on any level ..hes gonna take the safe excuse every time and say you don’t write your own rhymes whether there fire bars or not he’s gonna keep referring to the ghostwriter
his pr probably like u don’t wanna do this son lol
In all my years, I have never seen a real rap beef that went to wax where names weren’t mentioned. NWA/Cube/Death Row, Biggie/Pac, Jay/Nas…all mentioned their targets by name with details about why they were attacking them.
Meek committed a cardinal hip-hop sin by saying Drake doesn’t write his own rhymes. That is the equivalent of telling the common man that his wife is cheating on him. Meek was attempting to discredit everything Drake has done to date.
Drake had a chance to end Meek’s career. Drake had a chance to cement his legacy as a MC who is not to be fucked with. And in true Drake fashion, he used subliminals while never addressing the issue head on.
Based on his previous rhyming style and subject matter, this song was clearly finished before Drake stopped the presses to add a few chameleon lines at Meek. This response was weak and hurt Drake more than it helped. Ironically, his silence would’ve spoke louder than his rhymes did.
Drake had a chance to show us he was a true MC. This shit solidifies that he is not.
Exactly, his die-hard fans are acting like this is the toughest shit ever. But hip-hop heads see it for what it is, an average at best rhyme scheme and some passive aggressive lines
they act like that because they are white surban kids/ emos
not necessarily if this hits radio its a win win cuz it does’nt say his name and he know he talking to him more of what meek hates causing a reply that will bury meek
WTF are you talking about?
You’re so stupid you make me question my own intelligence.
It is on RADIO! BEATS OVO SOUNDS is the RADIO! Drake ain’t playing CHECKERS!! LOL!!! APPLE just gave Drake 20 MILLION for BEATS OVO SOUNDS!!!
LOL stop proclaiming you’re opinion like it’s fact… If names get called, who benefits in this situation? Certainly not Drake. Like I stated earlier, I’m glad he didn’t say Meek’s name, all it would do is to give Meek a sales boost. We saw what happened when Jay called out Nas, Nas went plat! Why on earth would Drake do that? People need to stop acting like every rap that Drake has ever spit was written by somebody else now…
Shit only solidifies it for you and based on your statement, you probably had that perspective already and were looking for the slightest mishap to validate your point loooooool
You say his name because he said yours. If someone punches you in the face, do you shove them or do you punch them back?
Drake was an innocent bystander and got attacked. When you get attacked, you fight back. He bitched up.
Nas had a platinum album before Jay ever even recorded in a real studio. Nas’ legacy helped jumpstart Jay’s career as it was evident in “Dead Presidents”. Stillmatic was going platinum regardless of Jay-Z.
You know jack shit about the history of hip-hop. Go take your white ass to library and do some research before you come to this thread.
So Meek Mill tweeting and mouthing off on social media like his girl and TSwift earlier last week qualifies and is equivalent to an attack/being punched in the face for you hahahahahahahahahaha
You do realize that the first thing your hero did was get on social media and make comments about lotion (no hyperbole here, facts only)
This was a measured, well thought out and precise response from Drake, there’s clearly no need to bring a sledgehammer down on an ant, not yet anyway
Fuck all the other bullshit antics that we know your boy will bring yelling about how he got goons and is in the streets, but that’s hip hop history you’re referring to right. RIP to your eardrums when Meek responds, if he ever does Kris
Hero? Your boy? I don’t have a horse in this race. I could careless about Meek.
The fact is Meek discredited Drake’s craft. Drake should’ve cut his balls off. But he didn’t. Why? Because he can’t.
Like I said, you’re white and you know nothing about hip-hop. You’re a culture vulture who worships radio icons and clicks on an underground artist every now and again to make yourself feel like a true head.
Have fun. You’ll be listening to Springsteen oldies and voting Republican in 20 years anyway.
Hahaha Kris, you’re literally making me crack up right now and distracting me from studying for the GMAT, a nigga trynna get into business school, but I digress…
In any case, just because somebody says something does not make it so, nobody knows the circumstances under which “Drake’s craft” as you put it, was compromised. The only worshiper here is yourself as you’re blindly eating up everything you’re being fed on the interwebz which again I do believe is feeding into your blind hatred for Drizzy…
Sidenote: You’re constant racial comments suggest a much deeper insecurity, you should get that checked out… Finally the only reason I would vote Republican is because i intend to be in significantly higher tax bracket a few years from now
Didn’t know the University of Phoenix required the GMAT. Good Luck!
Lmfao, *dead* — Anyway I gotta hit the books, good luck listening to you’re so called underground rappers and hating on white people… Umm sounds like a sweet existence…. …. ……
Jay recorded in real studios for years before his first album came out and you really wanna talk about platinum records between Jayz and Nas? Like Jay may have came in the game after Nas but don’t get it twisted. Jay aint just some underground rapper anymore like he was in 1994. Clearly when it comes to platinum records, Jay got busy too. Jay – “you say you been in it ten, I been in it five, smarten up Nas”… That line came after Jay sold more then ten million records in less then ten years. Checkmate
You obviously missed the entire context of the discussion.
Whatever it was, it was stupid. You talking about Nas legacy helped kick start Jayz career? Nas debut came out in 94 and Jays came out in 96 but his singles came out in 95. Its not like Nas had much legacy yet and Jay used a line Nas said that was clearly a play on money but its not like that one line just made Jayz blow up or something. Jay had to drop two whole albums for that to happen. I get what you said about Stillmatic going platinum regardless of Jayz but certainly Jay is gonna do his numbers regardless of Nas.
How my dick taste? Cause you suckin it extra hard right now to keep talking about something totally different from the original post.
Stalking ass homo.
I talking like the true faggot you are bitch. Your mothers a stalking ass bitch fukboy.
So who would have benefitted when it was Kendrick? Jay Z? Common? Pusha T?
Drake is a bitch with a fake persona
too much fuckin time on yo hands bruh! get an occupation.
Your username shows how much you love Drake’s dick. Please stay away from mine.
yo hands hurt dont they!!!?
That’s your jaw from all that OVO cocksmoking!
Stop dickriding bro, his diss was weak as fuck. My problem has always been the talking tough and never backing it up
How did it hurt when he just got 20 million for Apple? Every time this song get played they get PAID! This is more about FLEX than it is Meek. Why say NAMES when you can keep ALL THE ATTENTION on YOURSELF? I bet you MEEK and FLEX BOTH FELT THIS with OUT hearing their NAMES! And once J.PRINCE calls FLEX he’ll stop that bullshit!
What does money have to do with rhyme quality?
Shit sucked.
Stop frontin this shit is slick and i dont listen to Drake. Most mcs would agree. This sht smooth articulate to the point and its for starters, if it’s about skills and raps let it be shown. We’ll see what meek got soon enuff.
These the same dudes that say Drake soft and Meek scream too much. They don’t know what they want lol Drake covered all grounds to me. it’s no way you can respond to this without getting personal and making it real beef.
Lets be honest, can you name a weaker diss in hip hop history? In the beginning of this article he named all the infamous beefs hip hop has observed and Drake simply bitched out. Nothing to discredit the claim of ghostwriter.
People act like Drake can do no wrong and if you think otherwise you’re a hater
Clap back – Ja rule
I but clap back over this. He addressed the beef for what it was.
Drake didn’t do justice and didn’t even address the ghost writing. Weak af
He did touch on it. Only a cat like 3 stacks can explain a whole situation in 16 bars lol. I like to see these young cats go at it. I think Drake makes better songs. When Kia shine was saying he wrote best I ever had niggas wasn’t tripping.
Thank you!!! Niggas are missing the point. It was fucking barred up
I have noticed you hating on Drake throughout this site nigga. And if you don’t think that is not a good track then you probably don’t know that much about rap
“I bought this one a house/I bought this one a mall/I keep buying shit just make sure you keep track of it all.”
I give credit where credit is due. Keep stalking me bitch.
Or he was being honest. Drake fans are the new Belibers, y’all swear if someone says the truth about Drizzy he’s a hater.
You favorite rapper is an emotional bitch who claims he’s the best rapper when he clearly makes heartbreak music for women.
The diss was weak and Meek shouldn’t even respond
Just listen to the words and Forget the beat. He’s slowly killing him. I think he has another track ready for Meek. It’s too much against Meek to win, and I hate Drake. He’s just better.
It was still weak bro. I’m just tired of Drizzy talking tough and not matching up in reality then claiming he’s the realist
You are an emotional bitch who gets upset in rap blogs
You’re an emotional bitch who wants to date his favorite rapper. You pussies make me sick, hip hop is dying, the only real culture black people have left and faggots like you want it to change to heartbreak music. Foh
You’re an emotional bitch who wants to date his favorite rapper.
Hiphop is the only culture we as African Americans have left and you faggots want to turn it to heartbreak music. Foh pussy
Lmaooo!! No need to get emotional on me fam “Hiphop is the only culture we African Americans have left” Your dad probably wasn’t around to teach you some culture… That is truly sad, I am sorry your dad left you when you were a kid
Actually I’m African so I don’t identify with African Americans but I understand their plights in getting equality and translating that through their music.
I think Drake is straight but he isn’t hiphop and claiming to be the best is a slap on the face to the culture
Lastly I’m pretty sure my family is much well off than yours, just saying
Firstly, I am also African, Nigerian to be exact. And how are you sure your family is better off than me you don’t even know me Fam… Secondly to say Drake isn’t hiphop is a slap in the face to hiphop. That is the thing with you so-called hiphop purist you guys don’t wanna see changes, you still have that old mentality. Don’t get me wrong I still like the cats that just rhyme and don’t do melodies, I loved Earl’s album and there was nothing close to melodies on that shit. People know Drake’s bars are fire but they keep hating because he sings therefore he is considered “soft”… Keep sleeping and don’t accept hiphop for what it is now a genre that transcends all cultures.
His bars are catchy but they don’t go past glorifying himself, women, money. Drake has never made a song that provoked my thought, made me look at things differently and see him as someone id support as the face of hiphop.
He makes good music which is undeniable, but his persona isn’t real and he falls short of an actual MC. Drake releases songs like hold on we’re going home and it wins awards over actual rap songs so yes it a slap to the face
Kendrick is the best rapper alive in 2015, Drake is the most popular. At the end of the day think about what these two artists are saying and what matters more
That is the problem with you fucking fake hip-hop purists, you guys can’t seem to understand that people are allowed to have different opinions. You guys come to this rap-blogs and do too much. Even rappers the real hip-hop heads have said Drake is nice, what are you talking about?
Just like Kendrick, Aubrey has his own lane too. Do you wanna tell me that Kendrick can write about relationships with people (not girls, I mean everybody) better than Drake. Just because that lane doesn’t suit you doesn’t make drake any less better. Drake has deep songs that make you look at the way you relate with other people even Fabolous said it. Drake didn’t grow up in the ghetto and he is not from America so why would he write about struggle in America. I love Cole, Kendrick and the rest but just as Kendrick is your best, Drake is my best. And if it is about bars we all know that Drake has better bars than both of them
Drake has Bette that’s than Kendrick? You have to be the number one Stan I’ve ever seen. Even hard core drake fans admit when it comes to bars Drake doesn’t come close to Cole or Kendrick bro.
The songs you speak of where he relates to people, name them please? Drake makes R&B music that’s catchy. Yes everyone has a different ear but he isn’t a real MC by any definition
Again, Kendrick and Cole would eat Drake alive when it comes to actual rapping and not melodies
Songs that people relate to – You and the six, look what you’ve done, too much, successful, the calm, lust for life, the resistance, club paradise. These are just few off the top of my head trust me there are more, these are songs were he speaks about where he stands in life with the people he knows and how there relationship is going. If you wanna hear bars he has 5am in Toronto, 6pm in new York, 9am in dallas, 0 to 100, draft day, Tuscan leather, pound cake, light up, the ride the list is too long fam. And yeah Kendrick may be better content wise, aggressiveness and flow but When it comes to bars Aubrey takes it, Cole is a close second cause that nigga has bars too. Drake has bars like ” I am just here for the bucks and the billi’s nigga, don’t make me kill one of the goats for it”, or ” took a while got the jokers out of the deck now I am holding all the cards and niggas wanna play chess now”… Kendrick ain’t got bars like that, I always tell Kendrick fans to give me one Kendrick quotable and they always blank. He has an impeccable rhyming scheme tho, I will give him that, but when it comes to bars no one takes it from Drake, even the Meek diss he just dropped was filled with bars from start to finish, like a bar every line.
Kendrick doesn’t have bars? Dude this isn’t a debate whatsoever. Drake is easily quotable, probably the most quotable rapper if that’s what you speak of. But in terms of rapping in any form or fashion,Kendrick will murder Drake any day and you know that
My problem with Drake fans is that you guys are the new Beliebers. If you want bars from Kendrick listen to the second verse on HOC or his verse on Pusha T’s Nostalgia. Those were verses of the year.
I’m not going to have an argument about Kdot and Drizzy’s rapping. Kendrick is the best rapper alive. Drake will always be more popular and sell more records because of his pop appeal.
Drake makes good music from time to time but I don’t respect him as an MC, his persona is fake and he’ll never get deeper than Heartbreak music. Drizzy has never provoked my thought or made me look at things differently and he never will
See. White boys like you are exactly why these discussions happen and the values of hip-hop gets overlooked.
Pretty much all of your fav rappers (Drake included) didn’t have their Dad and you make light of that situation of another black man.
You white boys will never get it. Ever. Leave our art form alone.
Firstly, I am black… Secondly it is so fucking dumb and racist to say leave our art form alone, it is equivalent to KKK fucktards telling blacks and Hispanics to leave their country… Blacks can afford to be racist but hate it when people are racist towards them.. So next time don’t jump to conclusions
Black my ass. Ain’t no nigga saying “fucktard”.
Right…As you say “fucktard” and refer to black people as “them”.
Cut the shit whitey.
Unlike you my vocabulary is not limited to any culture. Anyway believe what you wanna believe I am done with this shit.
I think he’s baiting Meek. Holding his best bars for an epic slaying. Hopefully…
Drake’s New Artist – https://www.reverbnation.com/kennythomas
So nickelodeon responds to meek and flex but NEVER responded to Kendrick. Dam drakes need to be sponsored by kotek with this soft ass response.
Meek got Nicki and his album went #1 so he’s feeling himself. Nigga claims to be street to the core, but be in his feelings when niggas don’t tweet his album. Being the king that he claims to be he shouldn’t need support from anyone. Now let’s watch Drake bury this nigga. That fake Barbie has turned this coon into a muppet, let’s wait till that bitch dump his king claiming ass.
IT’S A DAMN SHAME THAT THIS IS WHAT HIP HOP HAS BECOME!!! 1/4 OF THE PEOPLE COMMENTING ARE EITHER MMG HATER’S, A PART OF DRAKE’S EMO ARMY OR LIKE STREET MUSIC & HATE DRAKE!!!! THE OTHER 4TH ARE PEOPLE THAT JUST LOVE REAL GOOD HIP HOP. BOTH GUYS SELL LOTS OF ALBUMS, MAKE MILLION$ BUT ARE 2 DIFFERENT TYPES OF MC’S/RAPPERS. ONE GUY RAPS ABOUT STREET SHIT & WHAT DUDES LIKE HIM ASPIRE TO ACHIEVE & THE OTHER GUY RAPS ABOUT WHERE HE’S FROM, TRYING TO GET CHICKS, HOW HE FEELS & HOW NO ONE IS BETTER THAN HIM. NONE OF THIS IS REAL HIP HOP BEEF, IT’S A FUCKING DISAGREEMENT!!!!!
its based of allegations pr for both probably directing the diss records drake is a POP star cant tarnish his record with gun this and gun that pop your noodles his emo white suburban fans wont buy that sht this is bigger than rap think about it

Ijs
You guys are late. There is already a Uncharged Up song with Drake and Daylyte out. Way better than this shit
Just heard it. No hate, but was that even Drake? Voice sounded weird as fuck.
It was mainly Daylyt. Maybe it wasn’t Drake I’m not sure. But “Meek how are u gonna say fuck the cops when a cop put u on.”
Hahahah you actually thinks that’s real.
Ok the flow is starting to feel familiar don’t it….
No woman ever had me star struck, or was able to tell me to get my bars up…
Rhianna would disagree.
Sometimes you gotta pretend you a little impressed to fuck a bad bitch. This song is ok, but I can hear in Drake’s voice that he’s basically saying you niggas aint worth my time but I’ll give you some lines just to let you know I’m still out here but the shit is too easy at this point.
“…but I can hear in Drake’s voice…”
……………………………………..STFU.
Yeah meaning he sounds like he chillin fool. I knew you would probably think like a homo though.
It’s just crazy how you Drake Stans will stretch shit so far to make Aubrey make sense.
You saying you can hear it in is his voice is like you know him personally. Bitch Please. You went from Stan to Loser “real fuckin quick boy”.
This shit was weak. Period.
Again, the song sounds like he just chillin. Thats what my comment meant. Now you can take it a bunch of different ways in your homo mind. My commenting on his voice implied there was no energy in it. You saying its weak? Yeah Id say so to, Drake whole last couple albums were weak, a bunch of songs he’s released for the last couple years were weak too. So you can call me a Drake stan but I aint been playing his music since Take Care came out. Again, in the song his voice sounds like he aint really trippin off any of this shit at all. Thats what my comment meant.
Rumor has it, hasn’t done you niggas any good…
Cops killing people with they arms up, and you main focus is trying to harm us…
Great response. Very calculated and contains some clever and witty responses. While Meek bitches on Twitter, Drake is just observing and producing.
No need to go all guns blazing, yet. Let Meek serve some amateur lyrics and watch Drake end him.
Then we can move on and Drake will be more energised for VFT6. This is the Drake everyone one, someone who’s angry and wants to spit pure fire.
????
I wonder how this situation is going to affect Drake relationship with Nicki and Ross. I mean if Drake keeps having verses with Meek’s gf and boss, and trolls him there… damn that’d be awkward for Meek.
This a classy fckn rebuke.unphased
I need to hear some No Vaseline type records this is softer then fresh shit
You speaking Swahili to these radio junkies.
Totally different breed!!!
drake was talkin to meek mill like a disappointed father on this track lolol.
How do you know Meeks not sitting in the powder room for like 2-3 hours waiting on Nicki to get out of the bathroom So they can go do pub for her perfume ? What have we learned From SB stunts ?
This is exactly what gets on my nerves about Drake. Like, dude has major potential, here’s a great opportunity to slaughter Meek, someone who’s trying to threaten his career & Drake releases…this??? WEAK.
I don’t know about you but I liked it, y’all niggas just want to hear aggressive flow. That shit was barred up
I don’t care about aggressive flow. I care about a diss track being dope, & this was garbage. No nowhere near better than Stay Schemin, which I thought Drake went OFF.
The bars on this were pretty heavy and I liked the beat. It was a very different take to take on a diss track.
Forget the beat and just listen to the words. He is slowly killing him.
Who said anything about the beat? I listened this
Who said anything about the beat? I listened to the track like four times. He’s not slowly killing anybody.
& the beat was trash too, since you mentioned it.
I think there is another track that really kills him. He wants Meek to respond.
I love how Drake has never called a name ever, but the subliminals are so damn accurate that you know who he is aiming at. Dude didn’t even call names against Jay when they went at it. And if you think this was a wack diss track then you probably don’t understand music, I feel this was very groundbreaking and different, how many times do people make diss tracks to a very aggressive beat, this was done on a very cold beat with no drums or bass, just BARS.. And fuck Aubrey came with those grown man bars. Like almost every line was a bar, it felt like the reply a god will give you when you awaken his slumber, I guess that’s why the boy is the 6god.
I stay silent cause we at war and I am very patient, 6god is watching just hope you’re ready to face him – that’s cold.
“…it felt like the reply a God will give you when you awaken his slumber…”
Got damn! I hope you are a woman! No lube for you huh!?!?!? SMH!
Dude please get a job, you are always on this site everyday, you are obviously jobless… Stop being a bum, those welfare checks won’t cut it.
I’m on here everyday, typing! You on here everyday, stalking! Yet, I’m the one who is jobless!?
“Get off my dick!” – Cole
I am not here everyday, I will tell you where I’m at tho. At your mom’s house giving her this dick
How yall so late on this?? That copy and paste button not working?
I don’t really like drake or meek. Buy if I had to choose. Drake > meek
Don’t hate on my opinion
And I see ppl saying “this was something light” “this was a light jab”. DAWG lmaooo Drake should’ve went hard THIS time. Meek shouldn’t even respond to this.
This isn’t even a jab, it’s a light tap.
I’m sure Drake will eat that boy if they actually go head to head. I’m no Drake fan but I don’t think Mr. Minaj wants any part of that Jewish Canadian.
Im Not Excited , dude gets exposed for needing ghost writers and he comes with this? he couldnt find anyone fast enough to write something hot so now his fans say it’s a light jab untill he can get mook to write him a diss track.
But im surprised he came with anything,he bitched up on the diddy incident,i thought he would do the same on meek.
Meek aint nice like that, but you dont got to be to stomp out a fraud degrassi jew from canada who tries to pretend to be tough at times. Stop the twitter Meek and come at him with hard philly bars.
Drake wins because his diss song could actually chart! And because what he says makes you listen and put meaning to it. Meek will say 1 cool line and then fill the other bars with nonsense fillers about driving through Philly with the top down. Plus when it boils down to it, Meek is a “charged up” Wale with worse bars but a criminal record.
LOL
Speaking of chart… How’s those EDM tracks going alone will you ever chart….
EXPOSED.
Lol
A day later RapRadar posts the song.
I’ve debated this way too much already.
Charged Up is a good first song to get the actual rapping part of this beef going. It aint ether, hit em up or no vaseline, it isnt even the best bars we’ve heard from Drake, it is his OLD flow, so i assume he wrote this one tho. I’ll leave it there.
We await Meek’s response which should be coming in tomorrow. Then we can judge rd 1.
Finally after a two day break of not posting anything. B Dot is siding with Meek tho of course ha
This shit wasn’t nothing but a OVO apple promotion now he got niggas tuning into his station for more Subs and exclusive content. Meek gotta understand 1 thing he’s going up against the biggest label in music not OVO but Universal Music Group.
Relax. Drake is just warning him. Listen to what he is saying. forget the beat and just listen to the words. I hate Drake, but I can’t see Meek beating him. It’s too much against him.
Pussy ass beef, back in the days motherfuckers used to fight
I hate Drake, but he’s gonna win. Meek doesn’t have a fan base or lyrical skills good enough to challenge him.
Relax. Drake is just warning him. Listen to what he is saying. forget the beat and just listen to the words. I hate Drake, but I can’t see Meek beating him. It’s too much against him.
Drake is fake, he aint no real gangsta. And meek is just talking shit. Shity ass beef
Rumor has it i ate ya bitch better then ..
i think that Not mentioning names makes the music more perennial and helps for a cool little story if anyone asks what/who they’re talking about.
unlike when you hear, let’s say – eminem – going off on benzino and ja rule. haha. Like, how many times can you listen to very specific information about a past conflict? it IS funny however (those records).
Question: at this point, is there any difference between anything drake has said to meek in his “diss”, and the sublims he threw at Kendrick last year?
!!********Like the first Of performance adar…. <..~~!!~.. Find Here
Meek you know you done fucked up now…Drakeb gonna finish u off…lol
i heard drake rolled his sleeves up before entering the studio to record this
i get the calm approach and blah blah but this was just ok to me nothing special i dont see why people hyping it up so much. but yo im sorry if you claiming to be the top guy right now u need to come with somethin a little harder
Drake did it the Canadian way!
who wants a bet meeks response will contain “rollie on ma wrist” lol
i wish drake would piss of one of the vets like Em or Hov or nas it would be a wrap for the young boy lol
Let’s talk facts meek was irrelevant dirty young bull from Philly. Then gillie help this Lil nigga generate a bigger buzz in Philly.
Louie v gutta help him write some stuff on his album.
Conway beats n Jahlil Beats made him hot
Now he acting like he the shit now like no one ever helped him. And he shitted on all dem niggas. Gillie can’t get a feature. Louie v dropped from dream chasers. Jahlil Beats gets no love for monster on the album. Conway beats begin for money. ..Let’s not act like that now meek cause u got Nicki
C’mon Drake don’t bullshit hip hop by backing off like you always do, throwing one little jab then you out. Hov, I can dig it. Idol…ok cool, but when Kendrick was High 5’n on BET on you…you was chilling. You was like “Say my name”. Now Meek is about to pop a blood vessel making his reply…You better fucking not moon walk your way outta this shit. Fuck that, you want to be a great you gotta survive some wars
He basically talked too meek like he was a little boy, which is the point. Drake put him in his place with some light work. If Drake got out of his lane yelling and shit then he would look bothered but with Charged Up he let meek know he’ll be fine regardless, you can’t stop the wave drakes on rn.
stupid arguments. Is Meek or Rick Ross doing all the shit they rap about?
I really care less who is writing for who, who is selling drugs, or whatever.
If the music is good, its good.
Real Hip Hop/ Real Beef is dead and gone, enjoy whatever we got now.
Is anybody doing the shit they rap about has that ever really existed. Was too short really a pimp was ice cube really the gangsta gangsta was kool g ever a king pen. All we ask of these rappers & emcees especially if they claim to be king is please be the one behind that pen. Rick Ross may be fake but at least he is the one behind his pen & other unspecified pens.
Great outlet for Drake’s demos 🙂
Drake came with facts. He doesn’t NEED to really reply anymore.
Simplicity at its finest in a Genius Form
People like to act like Drake making “subtle” disses isn’t just being a pussy.
Cmon man I heard nothin wrong with the track. What, he spose to come out on sum “muthafuck dre, muthafuck snoop, muthafuck death row” type shit? It’s not as bad as ppl sayin it is.
Continute with the best site raprada’r ———– Continue Reading
Drake is definitely soft but that has nothing to do w/the fact that he’s the better rapper. He’s gonna destroy Meek in this battle which will get Drake a lil’ bit of credibility on the “streets” AKA the internet. Y’all gotta see this for what it is. The first volley in a string of tracks between these two. Should be interesting.
the GOAT Nas said it best on “Back When”
To call them fake today is hate, real niggas extinct
Pac left me inside a rap world with niggas that wink
At other rappers, undercover niggas spit every way
Won’t be surprised if all their rides have federal plates
Let alone their wardrobes and Studio 4 flow
It was real when I appeared
It would’ve been some jaws broke
Nas, my real name, stage name, same thing
How could you let these lames claim king
I’m so ashamed, man
Y’all call this a diss track? Whatever happened to diss tracks like Hit ’em up, Ether and Nail in the Coffin?
