Starting point is 00:00:03 Receipts are being brought up and I'm not going to lie. For the most popular hip hop artist to ever live, you would think people will know a little bit more about this man's situation. As people are bringing up how Vori, who is a already popular artist, is responsible for a lot of, I'm not going to say a lot, is responsible for a specific track that everybody has brought to my attention. As a Drake fan, I guess I have to face the music, literally. Because Vori is a well-renowned writer.
Starting point is 00:00:45 Some people say Ghost Rider, even though he's credited, which is what I'm getting at. But Drake's song, Mob Ties, on the album that came out in June 29, 2018. ladies and gentlemen, 2019, they didn't want to bring this up. 2020, they didn't want to bring it up. 2021, 2022, 2023, and now,
Starting point is 00:01:10 five years, six years later, in 2024, they want to bring up how Vori is a writer and made a whole entire reference for mob ties, simply off of the fact that Drake seemingly has no friends in the industry. And now everybody wants to say, that Drake is a fraud.
Starting point is 00:01:32 So publicly known information from 2018 is being brought back up in 2024 like is brand spanking new. And people are just running with it as Vorey's real name is Tivoris Javon Hollins Jr. Why is that important? because let me show you something right quick I literally typed in Vory's real name and guess what this popped up
Starting point is 00:02:05 you want to know why this popped up because it's publicly known that his real name is out there on the internet it's not like it's a hidden fact so when you go to your local DSP let's just go to Spotify right quick
Starting point is 00:02:22 and this is my own personal Spotify I'm going to just to show you all this information you know analytic dreams video on spotify to see the video along with the audio so let's take a a stroll down memory lane into one of the greatest drake albums of all time so mob ties if you go to it click this uh little button right here there's like more options for mobtized by drake and then let's click on view credits and look what we have here to vaughan hollins junior written by. Obviously, there's a bunch of other names, but it's not like this name has never been on here.
Starting point is 00:03:03 It's always been credited for Montaise. I think what people are starting to understand is that references and the way that official tracks are made is needed. For somebody of the caliber of Drake, he's going to be pinpointed for having writers. But in all actuality, we really can't name a popular music. musician that doesn't have help when it comes to the creative vision. If you're going to and captivate the masses on a global scale like a Drake has, but, I don't know, like Drake and his ability to encapsivate the masses, any other musician on that caliber has had help writing a couple of verses.
Starting point is 00:03:53 I mean, just look up who made and who wrote on loyal. for Kendrick Lamar featuring Rihanna. The only reason I bring that up is because a lot of people act like certain musicians are too prestigious to have help when writing. When that's just a blatant lie. Everybody has right. Everybody has help when it comes to writing. Now, when it comes to actually creating the music and putting forth the performative factor,
Starting point is 00:04:22 that is where I feel like holds the most weight as far as who can perform the track the best. I'm not saying that if Drake's songs came out as far as references and it was whole albums, I wouldn't be upset because I would. But you would be hard pressed to find a reference for 4 p.m. in Calabasas, summer 16, Western Road flows, 5 a.m. in Toronto. Like, I think when people bring up these reference tracks, they're disfigure. regarding the fact that it's not about Drake's life. It's more of a hit anthem for the masses, which are going to have certain key elements
Starting point is 00:05:10 that everybody goes through as far as emotions. But when it gets into Drake's life, and he puts pen the paper, he is still one of the best rappers to ever do it, because that is coming specifically from his brain. But as a global musician, he's going to have help on a couple of verses for Slavis. like 10 bands with Quentin Miller,
Starting point is 00:05:32 mob tauts with Vori, jumbo stuff popping with a little Yadi, which we're about to get into in the second. But ultimately, despite the controversy, I just think Drake has just taken all of the bullets for well-known industry. Like, well-known information
Starting point is 00:05:55 already presented to the industry, but it's just now hitting the masses as far as the public. And I think people, just using this to continue the agenda that Kendrick is just completely demolishing Drake. I think that's what it is. Seeing that Kendrick has regard, as far as public perception, he's won the rat beef, everybody is pinpointing everything that they can about how Drake's a fraud.
Starting point is 00:06:27 And I just think some of it is just outlandish because this information has been public for 28th, since 2018 and i wonder why they're just now bringing this up so as a drake fan you know there's receipts there's references you can look up for yourself i'm not going to bring it up on the screen because i don't want to get any type of copyright but of course the vorey version of mob tides is publicly available if you want to look up on youtube soundcloud things of that nature but at the end of day the only time i'll ever critique a humongous star like drake as far as having help with verses is if I ever hear a reference track for a timestamp record or a lyrically inclined record. Because the ones where he's just talking about killing people, how much money he gives, you know, the regular braggadocious bars.
Starting point is 00:07:24 If he had a couple Vs thrown his way by a well-known writer such as Vore, I really could care less. and that's just the simple truth so I'm not going to say too long on this because people wanted me to talk about it because it was like how are you going to defend your man drink you know he got he got writers and I'm like people been know I mean what do you think
Starting point is 00:07:47 was the whole primary objective of Meek Mill when he was going to drink to expose he had writers because nobody knew that that was a thing in the industry as far as having a couple help a couple writers
Starting point is 00:08:02 There's, you know, bouncing ideas off of you as far as how to make a hit track. So I think Drake has just taken all the bullets. She's just a mascot for exposing people who use writers. I mean, you never really hear naysairs for Rihanna and Beyonce's quality level music. And whole bodies of work have been written for them. So I don't really get it. As a rapper, I guess if you want to say his pen is in question, because now it just questions what tracks he did get written. He did get people to write for him and what tracks did he write himself?
Starting point is 00:08:49 That's a valid critique. But at the end of the day, we've never heard a reference track for any lyrically inclined track that was talking about his life and his experiences. as far as Marva's room 4 p.m. Calabasas, basically the timestamp records. Like, his most popular records, if I ever hear a reference for, what's a record? Like, in my feelings. Like, let me hear one of those.
Starting point is 00:09:13 Like, Hotline Bling, let me hear a, well, I think that was drama. So that's not a good example. But anyways, you get on saying. As far as rapping, I need a actual reference for that. If I ever get a reference track for any Tomstep record, then I'll just come out and say Drake is. officially disqualified for being one of the best rappers ever. But as long as those people like Kanye to come out, say one, what do you say,
Starting point is 00:09:40 like a thousand talented writers isn't equal to one Drake. And as long as Drake is also writing hits for superstars like Beyonce on the track, Heated, like the way I just brought up the writing credits for Mob Ties, look up heated by Drake and Beyonce I mean look up heated by Beyonce off of the album Renaissance go to song credits and then when it says written by A. dot Graham which is Aubrey Graham
Starting point is 00:10:13 Drake's government name I just want to see if people keep that same energy so with that being said click my link to you in my bio let me know one of my social media why are people just blatantly hating on Drake? And do you think it's solely because of Kendrick and basically the whole industry like Metro Boom and Future going at him?
