Latest on Rap Genius
In wake of Meek Mill accusing Drake of not “writing his own raps" on Twitter, Drake took to the new Beats 1 OVO Radio to fire a warning shot in the form of “Charged Up,” then proceeded to drop two more exclusive tracks with “Hotline Bling” and “Right Hand.”
Apparently Drake wasn’t quite finished getting his point across. In the early morning, two days after Funk Flex of Hot97 claimed to have a diss song from Meek Mill, Drake dropped a freestyle entitled “Back To Back” via Octobers Very Own’s Soundcloud, as a much more direct stab to the reputation of Meek.
Meek Mill’s response came out less in much less of a song for the radio, but the entertainment value came in the form of evidence and unrelenting shots to Drake’s character. “Wanna Know” which, for a time, broke Genius with popularity — set out to question Drake’s rap royalty with new stories about Drake getting urniated on, and even sampling Quinten Miller’s reference track for “Know Yourself”.
Dreamville Records has been putting out some quality work over the past year. In 2014 alone, we were given the mixtape Revenge of the Dreamers, J. Cole’s third studio album 2014 Forest Hills Drive, as well as debut albums Last Winter and Cozz & Effect from Bas and Cozz, respectively. Now it’s time for Omen’s debut album, Elephant Eyes — which just dropped on July 20th — and we’ve broken all the lyrics for your enjoyment.

Atlanta’s well known MC and leaner Future — set expectations high in 2014, giving the world Honest and hit mixtape Monster. However, to raise the stakes, he chose to show 2015 what the deal is by making a sequel to his breakout mixtape Dirty Sprite.
Dirty Sprite 2, while highly anticipated, had a huge burden to fill. He set the bar high early by dropping “Blow A Bag.” Soon after he would reveal the tracklist which showed Drake as the only feature and included “Fuck Up Some Commas” with a video feature. Drake and Future’s collaboration “Where Ya At” resembles the “No New Friends” trend.
