Drake and Meek Mill Beef: Does He Have a Ghostwriter or Not?
After rapper Meek Mill took to Twitter to bash Drake for not writing his own songs, Hot 97 DJ Funkmaster Flex announced on the air that he has sources confirming the rumors.
A source told Flex that Drake employs someone named Quentin Miller to write his songs, paying the ghostwriter $5,000 a month, according to BET.
The DJ then leaked a reference track that Miller apparently recorded for Drake's "10 Bands."
"If Drake does write everything, everyone owes him an apology," Flex said. "If he doesn't, I go on the record as [saying] he's a fraud."
Other rappers took to social media to support either side of the Meek Mill and Drake dispute, including Rick Ross -- who sided with Drake, according to The Daily Beast.
Meanwhile, Drake responded to the incident in a new track called "Charged Up." Although he never says Meek's name, Drake makes clear to listeners that the diss track is about him. Drake takes jabs at Meek, claiming that he is more popular and sells more albums.
"I seen it all comin' I knew they would push a button / Easter egg huntin', they gotta look for somethin' / I'm done doin' favors for people / 'Cause it ain't like I need the money I make off a feature / I see you n-----s havin' trouble goin' gold / Turnin' into some so-and-so's that no one knows," the lyrics read.
The "I'm a Boss" rapper took to Twitter to respond to Drake's diss track. "Baby lotion soft..." Meek tweeted. "I can tell he wrote that 1 tho......"
Meanwhile, Drake's alleged ghostwriter posted an open letter to Tumblr denying the rumors.
"I am not and never will be a "ghostwriter" for Drake," Miller wrote. "I'm proud to say that we've collaborated but I could never take credit for anything other than the few songs we worked on together."
Miller said that he watched Drake freestyle and had seen the rapper write his own songs in the studio.
Is he a ghostwriter or not? Was Meek just mad that Drake did not promote the song they worked on together?
