Never liked Meek Mill or his music. Overrated in my opinion. He needs a ghost writer himself.
Don't debate me.

The best part is when he says something like you talking 'platinum this platinum that' and he fires back with 'I got a platinum chick, platinum rollie and platinum whip'.

What we hear is platinum that, platinum this
Platinum whips, nobody got no platinum hits
Cats know with me platinum always wrap my wrist
I come to the awards, quadruple platinum chicks
Little ones like twenty five, what cats get smacked with
Big ones like fourty five, what cats get clap with
I react sick whenever my dough ain't accurate
Harlem World, Jr. Mafia, yeah and that's it, come on

Meek said that Drake had a ghostwriter.
QM is listed on the writing credits for every track. They never tried to hide it.
Surely a 'ghostwriter' is somebody out of sight out of mind that nobody would have known about.

Peep the reference tracks, Q Miller came up with the "Safe house in Calabasas" line in 10 Bands and he mentioned Drake's friend, OB O'Brien in another one of the tracks. Those are details personal to Drake, Q Miller probably doesn't even know OB like that, and he damn sure doesn't have a house out by the Kardashians.

The whole idea that Drake is a dope songwriter, but he needs three to five guys as co-writers on every song who aren't even spitting verses on the track, eh, miss me with that.

MTV: Some writers receive writing credit, some do not. It’s assumed that being a ghostwriter means that you receive no traditional writing credit. Can you break that down?
Aaron: You’re still a ghostwriter if you’re getting credit, the difference is if it’s public knowledge. When you look at album credits and track one has five or six names on it. The artist, you know his real name, that name may be first. The second name is the producer’s name, so that name is there. Let’s say there’s a Michael Jackson sample, so you might have Michael Jackson’s name there. You might have Quincy Jones’ name there, because he produced the original Michael Jackson record. So now you got so-and-so rapper, so-and-so producer, M. Jackson from the sample, Q. Jones from the sample and then there’s a fifth name and it becomes, “Who’s that fifth name?” And that’s when people start doing research and trying to figure out who’s this fifth name on this record. And that’s when you start getting to the bottom of things. You gotta really read the credits. There’s a lot of musicians on the record, you may have 10 names, it doesn’t mean 10 people wrote the rhymes.
I say all that to say, you’re still a ghost if your name is in the credits… It’s still hidden, it’s still tucked away, that person isn’t doing interviews running around saying, “I wrote this and I wrote that.”

Just because of what's happened now doesn't mean he isn't a great songwriter. Part of his come up was writing for other people. He even wrote Un-Thinkable for Alicia Keys if I remember correctly. His resume is solid.
