    I think what Narsh is saying is a legitimate bone to pick--sure Drake has been exposed to Trinidadian, Jamaican, Southern, etc accents throughout his life. But like lost of things in his music, they only bubble up when it's commercially advantageous.
    Setting aside for a minute how much thought you give the dude's sex life, a street rapper from Philly calling out someone he sees as two-faced for having ghostwriters is hardly unusual or unjustified.

    Yes, but he's on the same label as someone who was a correctional officer and created a false persona for his music. If he really cared about "real rappers", MMG was probably not the place to sign. And Quentin Miller wasn't really a "ghostwriter", he was credited on IYARTITIL...

    Drake been alluding to those island vibes as early as Comeback season with his song wit Kardinal. You can argue Find Your Love had it too, and he definitely had that s--- in Take Care with whoever was talking in the background at the end of some of those songs. He's been doing it his whole career. Reach.
