Drake is no stranger to ghostwriting controversy but now the Toronto rapper appears to be caught up in a new writing scandal with Baka Not Nice.
Baka’s big hit “Live Up To My Name” is undoubtedly one of the biggest rap tracks of this year and a new reference track has surfaced which suggests Drake wrote the big club banger for the OVO signee. In a clip from the reference track, you can hear Drake’s auto-tuned vocals rapping the lyrics for “Live Up To My Name”, which is probably what was handed to Baka before he recorded the track.
In 2015, Drake was caught up in a lengthy dispute with Meek Mill over claims Meek made about Drizzy not writing his own lyrics. Despite admitting to requiring assistance with writing from time to time, it appears Drake does still write his own lyrics and even finds time to write some greazy lyrics for his boys- like Baka.
