"I show love, never get the same out of n---as...I guess it's funny how money can make change out of n---as, for real." -"5AM in Toronto" Drake
Philly-bred rapper, Meek Mill, took to Twitter yesterday to air out some of his thoughts for the world to read. According to Meek Mill's official Twitter account, he had something to say about girlfriend, Nicki Minaj's ex-boyfriend, Safaree Samuels "twerking" and stated Toronto-native rapper, Drake, uses a ghostwriter to come up with lyrics for his music.
Both rappers seemed to have been good acquaintances or friends enough for Drake to rep a "Free Meek Mill" shirt at one of his concerts and for him to be featured on the latter's albums (including Dreams Worth More Than Money). Dreams Worth More Than Money, which is Meek Mill's second studio album, was recently released on June 29th. After a week of the album being released, it sold over a whopping estimate of 200,000 copies and found it's way to be #1 on Billboard 200. One of the top hits off of the album happens to be the single "R.I.C.O." featuring Drake. Fast forward to Wednesday, July 22nd...

Woah! Meek Mill went from 0-100 real quick! Rumors have been spreading around that Meek felt some type of way that Drake didn't shout out his album, but according to Meek, that's not the case. He went on further in his rant to drop a name of the alleged 'ghostwriter':

Quentin Miller is an Atlanta-rapper known for sharing his writing skills on a couple of singles off of Drake's most recent mixtape, "If You're Reading This, It's Too Late", including "6 Man", "10 Bands", "Know Yourself", "Company", You & The 6", and "Now & Forever". Hmm... Drake's response: a simple screenshot from a fan. Drake took the higher road in the specific situation and stated "I signed up for greatness. This comes with it". Plus, when you have a loyal, thorough, and fairly large fan base like Drake, your fans got your back on all fronts and responds with a quickness.
You're no longer welcome in Toronto, @MeekMill.

So that leads us to the million dollar question: Does Drake really have a ghostwriter or was this a tactic by Meek Mill?(Photo: E Online via Twitter)
