Last night, Nicki Minaj called out Taylor Swift for not engaging with her discussion of the failure of the VMAs to recognise black artists.
Huh? U must not be reading my tweets. Didn't say a word about u. I love u just as much. But u should speak on this. @taylorswift13
And a few hours later, Meek Mill, her boyfriend, started sharing his own thoughts on Drake.
Specifically, he accused Drake of not writing his own raps.
Stop comparing drake to me too.... He don't write his own raps! That's why he ain't tweet my album because we found out! 😁
The whole game know forreal they scared to tell the truth! I can't wait tok these guys and sit back and act like they don't know!
He ain't even write that verse on my album and if I woulda knew I woulda took it off my album..... I don't trick my fans! Lol
He did have some compliments for J. Cole and erstwhile Taylor Swift collaborator Kendrick Lamar, however.
Kendrick and j cole really know how to rap even tho they in different lanes .... Dude is all the way outta of it lol
He claimed other people knew about Drake not writing his own lyrics, but, notably, Nicki did not respond to this claim.
Other artist know tho? lil Wayne and Nicki know ..... Ask em they gone act like they don't see them tweets
Rick Ross did weigh in, agreeing with him.
@MeekMill speaking facts!!!! Luv mynigga 4L #Empire
Except that he'd already deleted this tweet from slightly earlier.
Lol for his own boss to say this.. Meek lost
Meanwhile, Ed Sheeran and Bruno Mars were trying to start some beef of their own.
@BrunoMars any way we do dis you gon' come up short
A joke Meek Mill clearly enjoyed.
😂😂😂😂 RT @BrunoMars: Yo I want in on this twitter Beef!! VMAs is the new WWF!! @edsheeran Fuck You!
Fans were quick to respond, and many were critical of Meek Mill's abilities in comparison to Drake.
Who compared you to Drake tho ?😕 you aren't even the best rapper in your relationship. https://t.co/abVELHljIa
This nigga telling us Drake don't write his shit like we don't know lmfaoo. God wrote that for him, Drake a prophet
Some fans pointed out the disparity between Nicki's activities that night and his.
Or how she might have reacted.
Meek: I'm a better rapper than Drake right, baby? Nicki:
Others contemplated Drake's response.
drake on his way home tryna decide if he should drop the album rn and have everyone wondering what a meek mill is
drake stares out the window. "of course i dont write my raps..." he sighs deeply. "my raps write me."
drake writing the verse that will end meek's life
Or maybe not...
Drake's ghostwriters going in on the meek mill diss track like
Or came up with alternate explanations.
What if Meek Mill talking about Drake Bell?
Meek probably saw Drake's verses are written by Aubrey Graham and got confused it's ok just a misunderstanding
Some just didn't believe him at all.
"and Fetty Wap lying about his eye!" -meek
And pointed out a certain disparity.
But there might be something else behind this. Meek Mill also appears to have deleted all the pictures of Nicki from his Instagram.
Some people started to speculate that they'd split up, and that was what sparked his tweets.
Meek and nicki split up? That's probably why hes Mad
Others suggested maybe there was something even more nefarious behind it all.
Nicki and Meek Mill tryna distract us from the fact that Frank Ocean's album is 2days late. We not buying it tho #FrankOceanWhereaIsTheAlbum
This drake / meek mill beef was a distraction to keep your mind off the fact that frank ocean still hasn't dropped his album #staywoke
Whatever will happen next?
Will Drake respond to Meek Mill? Did Taylor cheat Nicki out of a nomination? Where is the Weeknds hair? Find out next week on Dragon Ball Z
