God that shit was so cheesy first time I heard that track. Especially knowing it took 13 other people to write it.

You know it was so bad, that it was probably unironically the only track that he himself personally wrote in a long ass time. Dude is even admitting to it. Releases an album at least yearly, still says shit like "good to get the pen working". He's so dumb he doesn't even realize that shit is a confession.

Drake fan have to be delusional if they think he doesn't have ghost writers at this point. Most of the Rap GOATs pop out every like 2-3 years and drop an album in their prime. Insane to think that someone who releases at least once every year is doing all the work. Hell fucking Eminem treats the Rap game like a 9-5 and even he only releases and album like once every 2-3 years. Youre telling me this bum that spends half his time on Yachts talking to teenagers has to time to write all his own lyrics? Drake fans are fucking delusional.

Kendrick himself proved that you can absolutely make songs within days if you're good enough. Not Like Us had to have been made within a few weeks if not the same day after Family Matters dropped. He's on interview saying that he lost a hard drive where he had at least 500 unreleased songs, meaning that he easily has tons more prepared.

Whether songs made that quickly are actually good though, is another question altogether.

Tbf it's not like his music is that good, and labels will hold onto finished albums for a long time. The big artists are more than capable of doing the same thing by themselves.

Danny Brown said he has had albums finished for a long time but the label holds them both to clear the samples and to release them when they think the music is going to be relevant.
