Drake has reportedly settled conflict with Rappin’ 4-Tay by paying the rapper for reusing his rhymes on a song, according to TMZ.
Drake borrows lyrics from 4-Tay’s “Playaz Club” on YG’s “Who Do You Love.” When 4-Tay did not receive credit for the song, he criticized the YMCMB emcee. TMZ reports that the two parties reached a “very lucrative agreement.”
According to 4-Tay’s manager, Drake’s label has agreed to pay $100,000 for the lyrics.
“4-Tay tells us he’s no longer offended,” TMZ reports.
On “Playaz Club,” Rappin’ 4-Tay has the following lines. “I got a ho named Reel-to-Reel / She got a buddy named SP-12, now you know the deal / We gets freaky in the studio late night / That’s why the beats that you hear are coming real tight / Something to roll to, something to stroll to / If you’s a playa in the game, this will hold you / Mo’ money, mo’ money for the bank roll / Stick to the script, don’t slip in the ’94 / A lot of fools put salt in the game / To where these women get the notion that they running the game.”
On “Who Do You Love,” Drake raps:
“I got a shorty name Texas Syn / She got a buddy named Young JB and now you know the deal / We turnt up in the studio late night / That’s why the songs that you hear are comin’ real tight / OVO crew, nigga, thought I told you / If you a player in the game, this should hold you / And man, shout my nigga Game, he just rolled through / Eatin’ crab out in Malibu at Nobu / A lot of fools puttin’ salt in the game / Until these women get the notion that they runnin’ the game.”

Check out 4Tays New Single, lets see which lines Drake can take from there!

I never knew you could make money from another artist biting your lines. If that’s the case, Jay-Z owes other rappers at least 100 million. I’m not impressed
You talk a whole lot about what you don’t know. Learn a copy right law or two. Its ok to steal a phrase and use the same words. Drake ole sawry self stole the rhythm, the cadence, and the rhyme scheme while sitting at home with a thesaurus trying to find bigger words to tell lies that sound true.
Stop paying homage to these crabs and avoid the drama, Rakim has been bitten in over a thousand rhymes and he looks at it as honor and not a paycheck.
Taking a line here and there is different from taking a whole verse. Especially when you didn’t contact the artist you’re borrowing from ahead of time to make sure it’s cool.
Ok, WTF is going on with this guy? He did the same with Dead Prez on Over didn’t he? But man he majorly stole a bunch from this dude. He pretty much used it as an outline, but inserted a few of his things in it, with the format still the same. But to not even acknowledge it in the first place, that’s stupid. Now I’m anxious to see who else he rips off.
he’s not stealing them, professor smartass. drake is paying homage to those before him. in addition to being a remarkably talented emcee, drake also has great taste in music.
No, Aubrey’s not paying homage, he stealing lines. He’s not remarkably talented and his music taste isn’t that good.
I’m assuming in the ‘he stole from Dead Prez’ you are referring to “one thing bout music when it hits you feel no pain” line.
Dead Prez took that line from the Bob Marley song “Trenchtown Rock”.
I guess we’re splitting puss hairs here though, because Drake seems to bite shit left and right.
he paid alright. that dude basically ghostwrote Drake’s verse in 89… died… and came back to collect. That also shows how far behind Drake fans are too.
all of you hating ass bozos can suck a fat dick. drake drops turds worth more than your no name having asses. punks.
I bet you finger your butthole and jack off to Drake’s shirtless pictures every night.
french needs to pay nas and jay-z for stealing their lines
eenie meanie minie moe. catch nigga dick with that white girl hole
He didn’t just “borrow” lines, he used MORE THAN HALF the man’s verse!!! He used 10 out of 16 bars!!!! that’s AT LEAST 75% (Just a guess I don’t feel like doing actual math right now!)
Wow so much for paying homage to a guy who was pretty much forgotten about up until then, he’s picking certain lines and changing words Throughout, really are we going to start ownership issues of WORDS? Well Wayne started make it rain so here comes the lawsuits!
Never go full retard.
There is a difference between paying homage and outright copying someone. Jay Z paid homage to Biggie with a line here and there.
Drake stole an entire verse and changed a few names. It’s the equivalent to a comedian stealing a joke from other comedian, then changing the names used in the punchline (ie Carlos Mencia).
its not words. its the sequence and rhythm of said words. If what your trying to allude is that then no rapper, singer, speech writer, book writer, app coder , app programmer, or linguist of any kind should ever be paid.
Lol he only paid homage to 4 Tay because this was a new west coast song/movement from the Bay Area, it makes sense to do what he did, drake has bars for days he didn’t HAVE to use those lines he did it methodically , just saying 4 Tay should have just taken the shine drake gave him and shut the fuck up, he’s no legend like biggie or PAC don’t compare those to him ever, Jay z has done more line stealing than ANYONE I know so stop ur bitching
Wrong, bitch nigga.
hes right, fuckboyyyy
No, he ain’t, pussy boy.
Taking lines, or anything for that matter, is exactly like plagiarism, which could get you in major trouble. But I’m sure you guys didn’t pay attention to that in school.
^
yeah they should’ve cleared it when yg’s album came out
it wasnt biting though it was clearly a take off from playaz club just like he did with mo money mo problems on worst behavior
According to 4-Tay’s manager, Drake’s label has agreed to pay $100,000 for the lyrics.
“4-Tay tells us he’s no longer offended,” TMZ reports.
–Money talks, and 4Tay was listening loud and clear XD
NOTHING NEW DRAKE BEEN DOING THIS HE A CRAB MC
This would NEVER happen to a real nigga!
bitin ass nigga
Biting is still biting even if you pay for it. Originating or imitating? What side are you on?
What happen to originality Drizzy?!
Only the bitchboys think paying homage is taking someone’s sh#t.
Paying homage is PUTTING THEM ON THE TRACK SO THEY CAN RAP THEIR OWN WORDS
Soon as you pussys act like this means people will listen to that “forgotten” rapper is when I Know you aint sh#t yo bitchass thought it was original!
drake is currently the greatest rapper alive. wayne is second, and tyga and young thug tie in for third. and whoever thinks differently can see me in the bronx, soundview projects apartment 23a. I’ll be there with brass knuckles, leaning next to a baseball bat outside my door. come by and I’ll teach you a lesson about dissing my main man, drake, because he’s the shit.
All of those rappers you named suck ass, dick, and balls.
I knew you were gay, but calling Aubrey your main man when he never even met you validates your homosexuality. You sound like a female. You’re really gonna try to beat someone up because they don’t share the same opinion as you? That’s straight-up groupie behavior. Plus, you’re just making up shit.
It’s idiots like you and the ones who say “drake and Wayne are the new PAC” that draw all the hate to these guys, drake and Wayne are talented and will be around for 20 years unlike young thug wtf did you put his ass in that list for, dumb mo fucka
Good jokes. Drake and Wayne are also trash like Young thug.
ill beat your ass u ever say some stupid shit like that again bitch you think im scared cu I got mpobb up there be afraid nigg
Go back to school and fix your spelling and grammar first, then you can threaten people on the internet.
nigga u aint in soundview. u in mount vernon listenin to rappers in dresses. faggot ass nigga
Which soundview building f#ckboy
Lol, shouts to my soundview brethren
u sound like you belong in the wwe
whatever money drake decided to toss was a favor and nothing more; it’s only fair. plus, its only right that the greatest rapper alive fairly compensates one of rap’s oldest and ancient living relics just to shut him up.
When I think about the realest rappers, Nas, BIG, and 50 come to mind. But you gotta put Drake up there.
People always make the case that he’s a “simp” or “soft”… But he tells the truth. He talks about what he knows, which is mostly love. But when he starts sending shots everybody calls him fake. If somebody was coming at you, would you just stand there?
So he stole some lyrics? Everybody uses ghostwriters and steal over rappers flow – look at everyone copying Ma$e! Drake never claimed to be something he’s not and continues to be on top of the game. Realest rapper out.
REAL NIGGA TALK
Agreed man, he gave 4 Tay shine if anything lol but drake keeps it real and raps about real relatable shit, not too mention he can put together some nice ass music.
Pathetic
Both of you are idiots who are wrong about everything. Drake didn’t give anyone shine and his rapping and music is average at best, trash at worst. Keeping it real and raps about relatable shit? You mean the same guy claiming to have start from the bottom and going through womens’ purses? LOL FOH.
^^ seriously… and Drake didnt give 4tay shine, he bit his shit and gave no credit. I think Drake got off easy with $100K for biting a West Coast OG like that. And YG’s partly to blame as well, for ALLOWING that kinda shit on his record.
crazy; the amount of dudes copying Mase including Jay – Z
Drake just fed this broke nigga’s kids. No more Wendy’s and BK. Strictly five star restaurants.
You sound like a bitch cause if someone gave you 100,000 you would accept with no problem! Some of you are so fuckin pitiful!!
No, Drake didn’t. And 4Tay ain’t broke.
Meanwhile Drake aint give you a dime cheerleader, lmmfao
100k aint gonna stop the wendys and bk from flowing
WTF you got against BK and Wendy’s, mah nigga?! Damn, shit is good as fuck. Nigga you must made me hungry and shit!
100,000 for those shit lines lol.
you’re upset because you didnt craft those lines orginally and get paid 100 large today. dont hate.
Lol it’s not hate. They’re weak ass lines.
these dudes jay -z, now drake stealing another dudes lyrics and offering it to the world as their own. what a bunch of fake mc’s
you just some butthurt hater… you need to be special kind of stupid if you think Drake was putting this out as his own, this was basically a shoutout.. He’s not stupid, who the fuck copies bars word by word thinking no one would realize?
NOT!!
You’re an idiot “P”. If it was a shout out and Drake didn’t do anything wrong, then why the fuck did he pay homeboy out? I know if I knew I didn’t steal bars and was doing this so called “shout out”, I would give any fucking body 100K.
drake #respect

Sooo funny!!! Drake be stealing lyrics all day!
He went to the jay z school of rap!!

Drake is such a pussy. What a biter. Soft lil punk. He gets shitted on by Katy perry, tennis players, tattoo artists, steals lyrics, sings like a puss, is overly emotional like a 12yr old girl, wears turtleneck sweaters like a homo, and he looks like a thumb with eyebrows.
He needs to just go away so we can forget about him already.
Damn, nigga. I agreed with you on everything, nodding my head up and down and saying “mmhmm” out loud and shit. Then you said turtlenecks were for faggots and shit and I was like, “Naaaaw, mah nigga. Them shit is fuckin Neno Brown!”

And why you copy and paste, then slightly modify it? Fuckin bogus ass muthafucka!
@CAL I came here to say “Real talk”. I finished the first line, then skipped to your comment.
NO BITING ALLOWED
How you youngsters claim hiphop and dont even adhere to the basic foundation of the genre/culture is comical.
K well as long as you are just as mad at Jay z , j cole, diddy, eminem, bone thugs and anyone else who has ever paid homage then fine be mad at drake for this…I’m all for following rules
What Drake was doing wasn’t paying homage.
how the hell wasn’t he paying homage? he basically made a lot of people remember that old ass irrelevant 4 tay song
Start working at home with Google! It’s by-far the best job I’ve had. Last Wednesday I got a brand new BMW since getting a check for $6474 this – 4 weeks past. I began this 8-months ago and immediately was bringing home at least $77 per hour. I work through this link, go to tech tab for work detail,,,,,

paying homage is saying a popular line. What Drake did was steal an entire verse without every getting the ‘ok’ from 4Tay.
And then came the MC
He had to move the crowd
Flawless flow, no mistakes allowed
Every line was original
Biting was a sin
If you was wack, you was wack, that’s the law, no debatin’

Nigga been repeating what other rapper said just that Rappin 4
Tay is one of few that last F that nigga write you own ryhms stop stealing mines. now Pay up
Huge song, lotta money at stake. Fuck the “love” pay me mine. Love woulda been “hop on this track OG” or “word to 4 Tay” after the line was said. Drake gets props for hittin him off tho. He coulda got on some bullshit like Jinya’s Paw Birdman
Huge song? HA!!
