So I'm aware that there is a lot of inherit hatred towards mainstream rap in this community, (#Offtopic) but I'm making this a thing anyway, because I know some people might have a worthwhile opinion on this subject. If you don't like rap, but like watching people fight, you might enjoy this, so keep an open mind. Two of the some the more popular rappers Drake, and Meek Mill have begun to develop what is colloquially known as "Beef" [url=https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=94bNyh6BBB0]What's beef?[/url] Battle Rap as an entity is entirely different from the rap industry most see as mainstream. Drake and Meek must step out of their normal comfort zones of egotism and luxury, and focus on actually using their music to call out and destroy their opponent. It's pretty entertaining actually, and these tracks are demanding of all the skill they have to prove who is the better musician. Sometimes, these tracks excel to be some of the best in hip hop. [url=http://youtu.be/41qC3w3UUkU]Like this[/url] Over Twitter, Meek Mill claims that mostly every teenage girls favorite rapper, Drake, has a ghostwriter, or someone who writes his lyrics for him. This is obviously something that fans would down upon, however ghostwriting is not that uncommon in the industry. His statement has led to both artists releasing "Diss" tracks in attempt to prove their side of the story, or more frequently, talk some serious shit to one another. (It doesn't help that Meek Mill was, until recently, dating Nicki Minaj. There are a lot of references to this in the tracks, as Drake has been known to do collaborations with Nicki while her and Meek were dating. [url=http://youtu.be/zXBJChf1tfE]Shit like this also occurred at many live events[/url]) In response to Mill's tweets, Drake released this track. It touches on some of Mill's accusations, but mainly focuses on how this makes him feel about his what he said. [url=https://soundcloud.com/octobersveryown/drake-charged-up]Charged-Up ~ Drake[/url] Meek called it "Baby lotion soft" Drake responds immediately with another diss track, before Meek could respond to his Drakes first diss track. The second diss was well received, however didn't really touch on what he was accused of, but it is labeled as freestyle by his studios account. [url=https://soundcloud.com/octobersveryown/drake-back-to-back-freestyle]Back to Back ~ Drake Freestyle[/url] Meek responds late with his track, focusing on Quentin Miller and the reference tracks used for Drakes ghostwriting.

Quentin Miller[/url] So, to those of you who care, I have a question, and an optional one. 1. Who is the better battle rapper? Focus on rhythm and lyricism, rather than how it sounds. 2. (Optional) Do you think Drake really has a ghostwriter? What are your thoughts? TL;DR [spoiler]These two rappers are fighting in the form of releasing diss tracks. Listen to those 3 songs I linked, and tell me who is the better battle rapper.
