QM is just a regular dude with an exceptional talent for writing. He’s not fake enough or arrogant enough to thrive in the facade called hip hop. Respect to QM regardless
@lil itsup to be fair, hip hop consists of rapping,breakdancing,graffiti artists, dj . I do see your point regarding the music industry is shady and can be fake. i wonder all the bad breaks and questionable rumors about this or that was a small portion due communication on his part or not. lots of ghostwriters but you dont hear a peep not even them defending rumors ,they just stay in the shadows
Right, i wonder why he’s not just being himself. He’s obviously not about to go Tupac or Xxxtentacion and be on his I don’t give a fuck shit. Why not just accept that he’s soft spoken and play the mysterious role instead of looking for some kind of pity fame that’s rooted in the audience’s sympathy for him. Like you said, in hip hop, that doesn’t work. He could allow other outlets to post the things he’s revealing instead of getting so much dirt on his hands by trying to create the rumors out of his own mouth.
Nawl honestly he has enough of a fan base to just be independent but he want that fake love. He’s still hanging around the industry and getting passed around like a hoe. He’s one of my favorite artists but he gotta go carve out his own lane.
He’s not exceptional. He has worked with drake, who is an exceptional artist. And that just catapulted him. But drake works with any and everyone he likes. And now people are just working with dude because he worked with drake. But if it wasn’t for drake, no one would even know dude
Quentin Milller in a way is his own enemy, almost every ghost writer (other than singers) knows that their flowers comes from writers credits & checks. NOT public acknowledgment. He wants everyone to know he was apart of something out loud instead of just staying behind the scenes & flourishing. Saying “I worked with Nas” giving his history with the Drake situation is a “read the room” type of thing.
Bruh... You don't get it! He's not his own worse enemy. He's an artist himself. These rappers are insecure. Black men not uplifting each other is the bigger problem. If his name is in the writer credit he should every right to say he was apart of something.
@@ShihanBarbee Has nothing to do with black men lifting each other. Nice try, but raping is a skill, literally the only skill a rapper possesses to make money. Rap is a competitive sport, based on who’s mind can come up with the dopest lyrics or songs. Not who can cover them. Thats why when singers first start they cover songs. Because SINGING is their skill. Imagine a painter (painting is his skill) claim the portrait of another painter😂. When he goes out and name drops he’s threatening the livelihood of the individual. If he’s a rapper, COOL, then put 100% into your own music so you can receive the glits, glamour & CHECKS.
@@ftwdamfseyg did you not watch the interview? He was making music. That's why he connected with Drama. He's helping everyone to put food on the table. Meek blasting him as a ghostwriter is why he's having a hardtime circumventing the industry.
feel sorry for the vulture drake who, when shit got tough, he was typing to Quentin and said "Yo, they're saying you did all my shit" as opposed to "Don't worry bro, fame's a circus". Drake got insecure and pushed this guy away because OTHER people were trashing drake for being associated with him. Thats the funny part. Drake bowed to public opinion
@@claudebanks9170 the thing is Vlad always hates on Nas: "worst beat picker ever", "no classic album besides Illmatic" etc. But at the same time he seems obsessed with this man. Just watch the interview with Large Professor: 80% of the questions were about Nas. Large Pro is a legend himself, why do you bring him to interview him almost exclusively about another artist?
@@Iamyou2uber How's he making it seem like anything? Y'all are projecting your own assumptions. He said the right thing. What you expect him to say? "Oh, I ain't write nothing, Nas just gave me credit for no reason." Or did you expect him to say that he wrote the whole thing? Like seriously. What did yall want him to say? His name is in the credits.
The more I watch his interviews, I see why he is where he is.......he wants to get famous so bad that he keeps leaving things unsaid just to attach his name to to the rumors......rather than just clearing it up. This is probably why he gets blackballed 💀💀💀
What do you mean, he was clearly protecting Nas here imo. Hinting that he did indeed write but can't/didn't wanna say. But generally, him doing a ''superhead expose'' type thing does probably hurt him. But it wasn't his fault it initially got leaked.
@@BryanV4 the fact you can imply he his "protecting" Nas (implying he did write Nas verses) is not a good look, in my opinion what he did on the record is not as important as the mystery he is leaving. Its likely Nas bought his song or he was throwing out song ideas for different beats
He probably wrote the hook or maybe introduced a cadence. That’s normal. I think us the people make it a huge deal when it might just be that. I can’t speak for other artists. Sometimes it’s a whole style stolen but like he said they just worked together. No ill will
He's purposely being vague. Nas's camp called him to clear it up. Because people use things like this to tear down a man's legacy. Even though he said he just threw out a couple ideas and didn't ghost write for Nas. It seems like he wants the rumors to persist. Because he thinks it's good for his name. But it looks like Hit Boy was one of the last people in the industry looking out for him. He keeps burning bridges no one will want to work with him
Exactly. He could have said that he wrote the chorus and been done with it. Everyone is only concerned with the verses. Did you write the verses! If not stfu!
How would it tear Nas down obviously he has ghostwriters it’s nothing to be ashame of only y’all Nas stans are the butt hurt ones 🤣 he did the same thing QM did with Drake.
Fax he doing it in purpose he looking for another moment nobody gonna work with him anymore he gonna keep acting like he wrote everything for the artist on the low clown
yeah being famous for being a ghostwriter is not a good thing. the whole point of being a ghost writer is that no one knows you did it. why would anyone want to be associated with him after he's been exposed.
It's obvious that he wrote some verses for Nas, he just didn't want to say it openly because Hiphop fans would attack him daily This ain't the first time Nas worked with a writer either
@@kikoferras7369 bol can't rap like no Nas....he ain't got no hood or swag to him to pull it off n he not on no afro centric God body type time either....if raekwon or az made that claim it would make sense....not this dude tho....
I always thought it was odd that I ran into Quentin Miller at that Illmatic recording session in 1991 after my standup show, but now it makes sense . - TK Kirkland.
If u are reading this there’s a reason No matter how good or bad you have it,wake up each day thankful for your life.Someone else is desperately fighting for theirs🇧🇸❤️
Nas gave him a credit on the album. Obviously they weren't hiding that fact that there was a collaboration of ideas or flows to try for the track. Then Nas proceeds to pen his rhymes using the flow or idea. Thus the reason he was credited. People take this shit too seriously. JAY, NAS, KENDRICK, COLE don't need nobody pen they rhymes. However, if you look at all those records you will see other writers credited for various reasons. Producers will have a beat with a hook and a flow already prepared sometimes. They gonna receive a writer credit. The whole song is their idea. You pen your rhymes. It's a collaborative effort.
The problem is QM. you can't be a famous ghostwriter and then not explain what you mean when you say something like 'i worked with nas'. it discredits everything nas does even if QM is credited on just the one song. it's a mistake to work with him period. and he has no self awareness about him. Even trying to clear it up on this video, he doesn't explain what he did on that song. it wouldn't even be a big deal if he wrote some lyrics for it, but being vague makes it seem like maybe he wrote the whole thing.
@lmcfigs4874 that's true. He's upset about the stigma. That's not these other artist fault tho. That's Between Drake, Meek and Himself. If he wants people that he no ghost writing for to collaborate with him he has to accept that they going to want him to provide clarity. Or they just gonna stop working with him to protect they legacy
Yes but he's purposely being vague to make it seem like its more than that. He wrote and harmonized the opening pressure bars and Dom Tolliver sung it. That's it. Now I see why dudes don't rock wit him
He wants people to stop talking about it but yet takes interviews, knowing they're going to ask about it... and then doesn't clearly answer the question.
He's smart not to say too much. Having been in the room with Nas and others, you'd be surprised at some of the assists that take place on these records. Most people just don't get the writers credit for it.
@Brian Holmes That's what I'm saying, he's lucky to get credited as an artist of Nas caliber could have paid him and denied his writer credit or not release the song at all.
I think it has something to do with his flow. I listened to some of his wdng crshrs stuff and some of his lines would sound phenomenal on Meek's voice and delivery
He's being extremely vague and refusing to "clear it up." Did he ghostwrite? Did he edit Nas' verse and added a bunch of bars? Did he write the part after the beat switched? Or did he make a reference track to show Nas how he'd flow over the beat? Just tell the truth.
Don't be delusional He made it obvious that he contributed on Nas's writing, if it was just a sample he would've said it Also, this is not the first time Nas as used a writer Plus, Quentin makes it clear that there are other songs that he co-wrote
@@thegreatest1yet snake? You’re just throwing words out there lol. Listen to what he’s saying. Read his body language. There’s a reason they call it “ghostwriting”. He wants to be the star. He has a “woe is me “ mentality.
Working on a nas song could mean helping with concepts, flow, choruses, it doesn’t mean the man wrote entire verses. He should just clear it up and say what he did with nas. At this point I don’t think many artists want the potential blemish of being associated with QM
That dude wrote some verses for NAS. Don't kid yourself. Don't make excuses for him when everyone comes at drake for the same shit. I prise NAS has been had writers here or there,just like every other dam artist. It's a part of music, and there is nothing wrong with it
@@mubarakjim284 he's literally not even saying what he did to avoid people coming at NAS. You are another idiot who doesn't realize that most if not all of your favorite rapper hip hop artist have had writers on a couple tracks, or entire albums at some point. Tupac, Biggie, NAS, Snoop, big Sean, meek, lil wayne, etc. It is the same dam thing dummy. The only reason at all those even came to light is because meek wanted quentin to write for him and he kept turning him down because wanted to write for Drake lmao your just another clown that doesn't understand the music business. Drake and NAS have wrote for countless artist that yall love. Stfu and bring a better arguement. Same thing, not different at all. He wrote some verses for him, he is literally trying to keep it hush. Grow up boy. Next ...
I’m sure he threw some bars and concepts at Nas, but I’m cool with it because Nas credited him. But let’s not act like this shit is the same thing as him working with all them other niggas because it ain’t. Nas is NAS! Quentin couldn’t have written anything as profound as Illmatic if he lived 100 lifetimes. So don’t try to put Nas in the same boat as them other rap niggas.
@@TheBrotherHoodSports nope. I refuse to even entertain the shit. He’ll STILL phuckup YOUR favorite rapper all day long on the mic. So you can miss me with that.
@@CharlieXFBA because he keep telling everybody who he write for and tryna be sarcastic and funny about it, that’s why he went through that shit with Drake , running his mouth about writing for Drake to people that don’t like Drake , that’s stupid and counter productive. So many great writers out there that don’t let it be know on, they cash them checks and keep it moving . He’s a clout chaser and still has Desires to be a superstar rapper , instead accepting his role as a writer .
Did you help with the chorus?? Did you throw a line or a word in there?? Did you work on the intro?? Sometimes ppl make a situation more than what it is. It's really not that hard to explain
I think he is playing victim. For the first time I think he is a dirt bag. Clear it up means say what you did. When asked what did you do he won't say 🤣. He deserves everything he is getting
@@slimjimmy4070 I just listened to the interview again to make sure I was hearing it right. 1. He was no ghost writing so he didn't write a verse. 2. He was asked to clear up what he did by nas's circle. 3. When directly asked what did he did do he refused... from how he is handling this I now understand why his luck is so bad. There is a reason why his name is no good even though he is talented
He should go into detail about what he did. Did he write a hook for Nas or a verse ? He knows if he said he worked with nas ppl were gonna assume that he wrote bars for Nas he sounds naive and he’s playing the victim
He never once claimed to write for Nas in this interview. He said he worked with him on the song, that could mean many things like adding hooks, ad libs etc.
hmmmm !👀Nas got some "clearing things up " to do. I know Illmatic was years ago, but that doesn't mean words don't rhyme anymore. My guy Esco needs to sharpen his penmanship before being lazy and resorting to this level smh.
@@madman9040 Pac is my favorite rapper and he is the GOAT to me but I’m pretty sure he’s had help with his raps as well and Kendrick not in the GOAT discussion at all
After watching the clip, he could literally said something like “ you it’s be dope if you do a workout metaphor flip, which Nas did, or talk about like how the pressure of the industry gets to you. He most likely gave Nas a couple concepts potentially and Nas liked the concepts and incorporated them in the verse he wrote himself. So QM was part of the creative process. That’s completely different than him writing the actual verse and Nas spitting something someone else wrote. I think if QM would’ve wrote his verse he would’ve said I wrote Nas’ verse, that’s how I think it went down.
At this point , I stop feeling bad for QM . At this point he should know how to maneuver through the industry and get his writing gigs done discreetly without making artists feel uncomfortable. It’s possible to build a resume and not be loud as Quentin is boasting about who he writes for. He should know rappers are sensitive by now. Why can’t he have his business done right behind the scenes ? I coulda went my whole life not knowing he wrote on pressure . Only rappers that don’t care about being wrote for is diddy and Kanye . Other than that stfu
Or people can smarten up and stop being so fucking pathetic. Rappers can stop being so sensitive over songwriting and act like adults. Perhaps you can just look at the credits to see every artist that was a part of it like I do, instead of clinging to your delusion that these artists do everything themselves. Maybe you shouldn't go your whole life deluding yourself. Maybe you and your favorite rappers need to stop being wimps. It's disgusting how people like you act like YOU and the idiots you defend aren't the problem when you are. Stop attacking the innocent people.
Justin Harmon, he wants acclaim. He idolizes the rappers, and he has a psychological need for "people to know his name"; he'd have been better off *remaining a ghostwriter* and working with everyone, rather than surfacing as a credited writer, given that rappers & fans both wanna maintain the delusion that "my favorite rappers write all their material, always have and always will" (just an opinion).
@@raynaudier8622 being a “ghostwriter” is not beneficial to him. You don’t get royalties on a song unless you credited. He wasn’t ghostwriting with Drake his name was credited
I don't know a whole lot about QM but I get the feeling that the industry wanted him in the shadows and that wasn't enough for him. Sauce Money type situation.
I think it has something to do with his flow. I listened to some of his wdng crshrs stuff and some of his lines would sound phenomenal on Meek's voice and delivery. "Say it like this" could change a lyric and turn something good into something phenomenal. We forget there used to be a position in music called "arranger"
Him being vague is the exact issue...you are KNOWN as a ghostwriter, yet you publicize your work you have done with people. The best thing for QM to do at this point is to pull a Yung Berg HitMake rebrand. Change your name to a stage name for writing purposes if you wanna still operate in a writing capacity.
Lol he’s basically doing what Sticman did in 2008 when he was accused of writing for Nas. He implied he wrote but did it in a vague way to not make Nas look bad. Left it open to interpretation. When Nas was working on his 08 album he did indeed bring Stic in to help with conceptualizing ideas. As for how much Stic actually contributed? Idk. I’m guessing it’s a similar situation with QM. This shouldn’t surprise people tho. Just because you’re a good lyricist doesn’t wan you can’t get input from other writers. And Nas’ best project was 3 decades ago. So why would it be such a shock that he would bring in a modern writer?
Just listened to the record in question and QM probably did the melody for the flow and with that comes some lyrics that can stay… The cadence is different for Nas on this song and that’s cool. Hip hop is a collaborative effort.
my guess is that QM singing at the start of the Pressure. that lil 10 secs at the beginning. then maybe did some ideas and maybe wrote or co-wrote the chorus. who knows
This dude knows exactly what he doing. By leaving the question vaguely answered, he, in his own perception, garners more respect as a writer, which could potentially get him more work. Trouble is, rappers who may need ghostwriters now shy away from him for fear of being 'exposed'. I think this so much affected Nas that during his MSG performance of KD series, he emphasized that his stories come from the streets he emerged.
Young chris also gave jay lines and ideas too! But that doesn’t mean chris wrote all the hits! And that’s just facts! Shit styles helped write jadakiss best songs and some of kanye best joints too! Everyone has helped each other! It happens in all music genres
Quentin Miller wrote for Nas when the energy was directed at Drake everybody cracked jokes now that Nas been exposed for having a Ghostwriter now he wants clout 🤣I’m just waiting on that Nas reference track for I gave you power and all them other classics.
The only problem is when he did I gave you power dj premier already explained how nas did it I've been in the studio with nas trust me he writes everything even if I ruled the world with lauryn hill he wrote her part he's great
And now you see the purpose of this sucka shit. That young man never really answered the question, so why Vlad publish the interview? To discredit Nas and here you are believing something that was never stated. Vlad's a dick riding cum guzzler who makes a living off exploiting the pain in Black communities. He not the first and he won't be the last.
@@jaynice3562 damian marley even said it. He said Nas writes 5 verses and takes the best parts from it just for one song. But he said they trade ideas n concepts because nas makes alotta conceptual songs. Jungle said as well. His verses are pulled from experiences and conversations in the studio.
Problem with Nas is not that he can’t write rap but he just can’t write rap that fits today, it was always his problem after 90 s he couldn’t rap because beats changed way people rapped changed and he just doesn’t fit and Nas is Goated in 90 s new york era those beats and rap game suits Nas perfect and if he wants to adapt he totally needs help but fuuk I don’t see Nas in this era
I can tell a lot of y'all niccas in the comments are buffoons. QM ain't say anything wrong. He was asked a question and he was diplomatic in his response. HIS NAME IS IN THE DAMN CREDITS. What you want him to say? "Oh, I ain't do anything. Nas just gave me writers credit for no reason." LOL smh
This guy will be telling his grandkids he worked with Nas and still won’t be able to tell them exactly what he wrote 😂. The fact he just says this without detail is borderline defamation.
Y’all mad at him for not saying the specific things he wrote. But if he comes out and say he wrote some of the verse y’all gonna be quick to jump on him and say the industry shouldn’t trust him SMH
Well, my thing is, why do an interview and give vague answers? These are the worse type of interviews to watch. The interview ends with more questions than it started with
it's not always that easy to explain. everything goes back and forth when you are writing in the studio. It's not one person writing some lines and another person writing some lines then putting them together
It's one thing to throw ideas 💡 out and conceptualize but to blatantly lie and gives listeners the impression that you wrote📝 bar for bar is wack🤦♂️🤷♂️. I'm not one of those who minds if artists (especially rappers) work/collaborate with others in order to create a masterpiece as long as it's fire 🔥, but to get help only for it to be trash 🗑 would be a complete waste (no pun lol). Some of Dre's biggest hits wouldn't be that had the ghostwriters released them, even when Jay wrote Still D.R.E it wouldn't have been the same. The art of delivery 🗣 is a skill in itself, 3 people can read the same sentence each in a different way. Had Q. Miller released the same songs aka the drake reference tracks before the completed drake versions none of those songs would've been as successful and he'd probably still be unknown.
CORMEGA wrote ALL of NaS’ verses on the ‘ IT WAS WRITTEN ‘ album 💿 it’s an industry secret 🤫 [following NaS’ illMatic debut .. he suffered from severe writer’s block .. & consequently, he wasn’t even able to contribute to projects like biggies album , etc. Steve Stoute , TrackMasters & the powers that be .. suggested the move .. & it worked 🤷🏿♂️ CORMEGA & NaS beef stemmed from that .. because MEGA was promised certain things in exchange for keeping hush on writing all those verses… & never received it .. & was even kicked out of THE FIRM. Following that album .. NaS received ‘writing’ help from certain ‘bravehearts’ members on songs where he wasn’t ‘ Free-styling’ , etc. later albums included entire ‘pen game’ from the likes of Dead Prez, Jay Electronica , etc. Recent albums include writing from the likes of Dave East, Hit Boy himself , & Quentin Miller 😞 Sad to to tell you all this .. but it is true. NaS is an absolute LEGEND .. BUT .. he is not the highly educated ultimate Emcee who he has been made out be 🙏🏿
Cormega and nas are worlds apart as far as flow and song concepts go. It was written Nas style was solely based on imagery and philosophical quotes and you often never knew if Nas was gonna end a bar on the 2nd, 3rd or 4th beat. And it was story telling oriented. Cormega almost always ends a bar on the 4th. His style wasn't imagery based nor was he a story teller. Flow wise he was basic but he does hit u with alotta philosophical quotes....n when they was beefing mega did everything to Nas other than a physical beating....he would ve exposed that if it was facts...

@@jaynice3562 exactly, they want their Boo Boo Drake to be looked at like. Real MC. QM WROTE THE HOOK AMD DOM TOLLIVER SUNG IT ON TJE PRESSURE. HE DID NOT WRITE A LYRIC FOR NAS. HES A LAME FOR BEING VAGUE
Well, in looking at what he did for Drake I can only assume it's along the lines of the same situation.. he gives people "assists" on records whether it be chorus ideas or the cadence for a verse.. when Drake worked with him he was releasing a lot of music.. same with Nas, he's released 4+ projects with HitBoy in a short timeframe. He lends help with song ideas. From the business standpoint, I understand it.. but as far as from a hip-hop standpoint which is where I stand.. the rule is simply.. "if I don't write it, I don't recite it".
Nas has always recorded at a high clip but the music doesn't get released. There's 3 albums at Columbia still, 25 unreleased AZ songs. An album with swizz music with Timbaland, etc
If you have listened to QM music or songs he wrote on “IYRTITL” the second verse when he slow down his rhyme scheme or rhythm in the bars it’s definitely QM type flow and bars but you can tell Nas lyricism mixed in. That’s probably y he don’t want to say he want traction in his music also. I bet he drop soon
Qm problem is unless he's a featured verse on these songs he shouldn't be publicly saying he working with rappers. He's smart enough to know at this point that people will perceive working with as ghost writing because wtf else would you be doing on the song? It's like you want to feel bad for him but in a way it seems like if rappers don't prop him up then he'll settle for the clout of being the "ghost" because atleast his name gets out more.
Bro just say u gave Nas a couple bars and a hook damn near same shit u did with Drake.. yall crazy if u don’t think top tier artist get help and ideas from people they work with
He caused whatever backlash he gets. He made it sound like he actually wrote for Nas. I don't know what it is with people like he & 21 Savage thatvmakes them feel like they can just disrespect or lie on Nas like it's nothing or nobody would ever hear their BS. Then he said it to 1 of the BIGGEST Nas hatas it is, Vlad? This guy Vlad has a HARD on for Nas or something.

He probably wrote the hook or maybe introduced a cadence. That’s normal. I think us the people make it a huge deal when it might just be that. I can’t speak for other artists. Sometimes it’s a whole style stolen but like he said they just worked together. No ill will
@BadEndBloccMuzik he didn't write for Nas.
He's purposely being vague. Nas's camp called him to clear it up. Because people use things like this to tear down a man's legacy. Even though he said he just threw out a couple ideas and didn't ghost write for Nas. It seems like he wants the rumors to persist. Because he thinks it's good for his name. But it looks like Hit Boy was one of the last people in the industry looking out for him. He keeps burning bridges no one will want to work with him
Facts this nigga deserve all the smoke his way
Exactly. He could have said that he wrote the chorus and been done with it. Everyone is only concerned with the verses. Did you write the verses! If not stfu!
How would it tear Nas down obviously he has ghostwriters it’s nothing to be ashame of only y’all Nas stans are the butt hurt ones 🤣 he did the same thing QM did with Drake.
Fax he doing it in purpose he looking for another moment nobody gonna work with him anymore he gonna keep acting like he wrote everything for the artist on the low clown
Ur grammar is atrocious
The problem is rappers aren't used to honesty and when someone is honest they'd rather for them to lie.
He’s hip-hop’s most needed but most under appreciated
🎯
It’s sad that what he’s most famous for has been more of a curse than a blessing for him.
yeah being famous for being a ghostwriter is not a good thing. the whole point of being a ghost writer is that no one knows you did it. why would anyone want to be associated with him after he's been exposed.
@@lmcfigs4874 He's not a ghostwriter if his name is on the credits. People really need to understand what a ghostwriter actually is lol
Your greatest gift is always a curse it's all about how you handle it
That's not true. That's how he has provided for himself... he doesn't work at UPS.
That “aha, got it” sounded like Vlad got the exact answer he wanted 😂😂😂
Facts I noticed too 😂 sounds like a detective looking for clues lmaoo

Nas gave him a credit on the album. Obviously they weren't hiding that fact that there was a collaboration of ideas or flows to try for the track. Then Nas proceeds to pen his rhymes using the flow or idea. Thus the reason he was credited. People take this shit too seriously. JAY, NAS, KENDRICK, COLE don't need nobody pen they rhymes. However, if you look at all those records you will see other writers credited for various reasons. Producers will have a beat with a hook and a flow already prepared sometimes. They gonna receive a writer credit. The whole song is their idea. You pen your rhymes. It's a collaborative effort.
The problem is QM. you can't be a famous ghostwriter and then not explain what you mean when you say something like 'i worked with nas'. it discredits everything nas does even if QM is credited on just the one song. it's a mistake to work with him period. and he has no self awareness about him. Even trying to clear it up on this video, he doesn't explain what he did on that song. it wouldn't even be a big deal if he wrote some lyrics for it, but being vague makes it seem like maybe he wrote the whole thing.
@lmcfigs4874 that's true. He's upset about the stigma. That's not these other artist fault tho. That's Between Drake, Meek and Himself. If he wants people that he no ghost writing for to collaborate with him he has to accept that they going to want him to provide clarity. Or they just gonna stop working with him to protect they legacy
Yes but he's purposely being vague to make it seem like its more than that. He wrote and harmonized the opening pressure bars and Dom Tolliver sung it. That's it. Now I see why dudes don't rock wit him
@@jmar5127 Agreed
Stop being delusional, this is not the first time that Nas has collabed with writers

True facts especially live at the BBQ
Big facts and he always will
The Pressure is probably the best album intro of the last last 10 years for me
Bruh
No it's not, the KD intro was better.
He wants people to stop talking about it but yet takes interviews, knowing they're going to ask about it... and then doesn't clearly answer the question.
He's smart not to say too much. Having been in the room with Nas and others, you'd be surprised at some of the assists that take place on these records. Most people just don't get the writers credit for it.
He’s literally in the writers credit for “The Pressure”
He is credited. the only reason people keep making ghostwriting accusations is because he's being weird about it. he is credited on kd2 on one song.
@Brian Holmes That's what I'm saying, he's lucky to get credited as an artist of Nas caliber could have paid him and denied his writer credit or not release the song at all.
@@brianholmes7144 he sings on it if you listen
Speak on it. You were there in 99 with Rae for Immobilarity and Nas for QBF...
I feel him.. They put him in a tough situation
I actually felt bad for everything that Meek did to him but now I'm starting to think I see what Meek saw in him.
I got better music then Quentin
🤣🤣🤣🤣 what do you see ?
Plz elaborate
I think it has something to do with his flow. I listened to some of his wdng crshrs stuff and some of his lines would sound phenomenal on Meek's voice and delivery
Sometimes I think he should just give it up… BUT then I remember that Yung Berg became Hitmaka so anything is possible. Keep going bruh! 💯
Yung Berg is a producer too tho well HitMaka lol dats how he kept goin mayne QM should try beatmaking lol
He's being extremely vague and refusing to "clear it up." Did he ghostwrite? Did he edit Nas' verse and added a bunch of bars? Did he write the part after the beat switched? Or did he make a reference track to show Nas how he'd flow over the beat? Just tell the truth.
He harmonized pressure. On the record
@@humblebragger500 so that was him singing on pressure? i thought so lol
He sounding like the Superhead of ghost writing (pause) 😂
Let me say it for Quentin miller "I wrote the Hook on the song called pressure and it was sung by Don Toliver" There y'all go easy as 123 😂🤣😂😂😂😂
Don't be delusional
He made it obvious that he contributed on Nas's writing, if it was just a sample he would've said it
Also, this is not the first time Nas as used a writer
Plus, Quentin makes it clear that there are other songs that he co-wrote
EXACTLY!! he purposely wants to meet it seem like he did more. I see why dudes don't fuck with him.

Wrong Approach but writers get shitted on daily. Niggas just want his flowers. Correctly. That’s all.
Working on a nas song could mean helping with concepts, flow, choruses, it doesn’t mean the man wrote entire verses. He should just clear it up and say what he did with nas. At this point I don’t think many artists want the potential blemish of being associated with QM
Right. He wants the world to know everytime he "works" with an artist.
@@mubarakjim284 when did he say that ?
That dude wrote some verses for NAS. Don't kid yourself. Don't make excuses for him when everyone comes at drake for the same shit. I prise NAS has been had writers here or there,just like every other dam artist. It's a part of music, and there is nothing wrong with it
@@mubarakjim284 he's literally not even saying what he did to avoid people coming at NAS.

I’m sure he threw some bars and concepts at Nas, but I’m cool with it because Nas credited him. But let’s not act like this shit is the same thing as him working with all them other niggas because it ain’t. Nas is NAS!

Yep, they should've passed him up. The pressure is not even the best joint on the album.

Did you help with the chorus?? Did you throw a line or a word in there?? Did you work on the intro?? Sometimes ppl make a situation more than what it is. It's really not that hard to explain
Mannn 🙄
I think he is playing victim. For the first time I think he is a dirt bag. Clear it up means say what you did. When asked what did you do he won't say 🤣. He deserves everything he is getting
Even if he actually wrote a verse for Nas and he admits it people will call him a liar. He was better of just saying "next question".
@@slimjimmy4070 I just listened to the interview again to make sure I was hearing it right. 1. He was no ghost writing so he didn't write a verse. 2. He was asked to clear up what he did by nas's circle. 3. When directly asked what did he did do he refused... from how he is handling this I now understand why his luck is so bad. There is a reason why his name is no good even though he is talented
Exactly
He should go into detail about what he did. Did he write a hook for Nas or a verse ? He knows if he said he worked with nas ppl were gonna assume that he wrote bars for Nas he sounds naive and he’s playing the victim
FACTS
Hitboy just did an interview and clearly stated no one has wrote for Nas this dude is a trip
He never once claimed to write for Nas in this interview. He said he worked with him on the song, that could mean many things like adding hooks, ad libs etc.

If he worked with nas and he's credited, then why everybody mad. Clearly he help write or structure the song it is what it is
After watching the clip, he could literally said something like “ you it’s be dope if you do a workout metaphor flip, which Nas did, or talk about like how the pressure of the industry gets to you. He most likely gave Nas a couple concepts potentially and Nas liked the concepts and incorporated them in the verse he wrote himself. So QM was part of the creative process. That’s completely different than him writing the actual verse and Nas spitting something someone else wrote. I think if QM would’ve wrote his verse he would’ve said I wrote Nas’ verse, that’s how I think it went down.

No, Drake Meek and Drama ruined him... not everything is solely on Meek
At this point , I stop feeling bad for QM . At this point he should know how to maneuver through the industry and get his writing gigs done discreetly without making artists feel uncomfortable. It’s possible to build a resume and not be loud as Quentin is boasting about who he writes for. He should know rappers are sensitive by now. Why can’t he have his business done right behind the scenes ? I coulda went my whole life not knowing he wrote on pressure . Only rappers that don’t care about being wrote for is diddy and Kanye . Other than that stfu
Or people can smarten up and stop being so fucking pathetic. Rappers can stop being so sensitive over songwriting and act like adults. Perhaps you can just look at the credits to see every artist that was a part of it like I do, instead of clinging to your delusion that these artists do everything themselves. Maybe you shouldn't go your whole life deluding yourself. Maybe you and your favorite rappers need to stop being wimps.
It's disgusting how people like you act like YOU and the idiots you defend aren't the problem when you are. Stop attacking the innocent people.
Because doin that don’t help him. He not a ghostwriter he a writer so he allowed to do what he want.
Justin Harmon, he wants acclaim. He idolizes the rappers, and he has a psychological need for "people to know his name"; he'd have been better off *remaining a ghostwriter* and working with everyone, rather than surfacing as a credited writer, given that rappers & fans both wanna maintain the delusion that "my favorite rappers write all their material, always have and always will" (just an opinion).
@@raynaudier8622 being a “ghostwriter” is not beneficial to him. You don’t get royalties on a song unless you credited. He wasn’t ghostwriting with Drake his name was credited

Can't play both sides of the fence.....then cry out for sympathy!!!!!
It's not rocket science. He didn't make the beat. He didn't write lyrics for the GOAT. So, he sung the chorus.
I don't know a whole lot about QM but I get the feeling that the industry wanted him in the shadows and that wasn't enough for him. Sauce Money type situation.

"Say it like this" could change a lyric and turn something good into something phenomenal. We forget there used to be a position in music called "arranger"

Him being vague is the exact issue...you are KNOWN as a ghostwriter, yet you publicize your work you have done with people. The best thing for QM to do at this point is to pull a Yung Berg HitMake rebrand. Change your name to a stage name for writing purposes if you wanna still operate in a writing capacity.
"The pressure weigh a ton, it's gettin' too heavy
Had to inspire them again like I didn't already"-QM 🤫
He did the entire song 😂😂that’s what that means lol
Translation: I signed an NDA that says I’m not legally allowed to say what exactly I did do on the song
There’s only like 2 or 3 good comments on this video and this is one of them
@Lover Boy Lonny Smart man.
He aint sign no nda lmao you dudes are so misinformed on stuff, stop getting knowledge from the internet
Lol he’s basically doing what Sticman did in 2008 when he was accused of writing for Nas. He implied he wrote but did it in a vague way to not make Nas look bad. Left it open to interpretation. When Nas was working on his 08 album he did indeed bring Stic in to help with conceptualizing ideas. As for how much Stic actually contributed? Idk. I’m guessing it’s a similar situation with QM. This shouldn’t surprise people tho. Just because you’re a good lyricist doesn’t wan you can’t get input from other writers. And Nas’ best project was 3 decades ago. So why would it be such a shock that he would bring in a modern writer?
I kinda felt sorry for this guy but after this interview yup he will never work with a artist as legendary as Nas again.
Just listened to the record in question and QM probably did the melody for the flow and with that comes some lyrics that can stay… The cadence is different for Nas on this song and that’s cool. Hip hop is a collaborative effort.
He’s purposely being vague to keep the rumors going. I can see why rappers are hesitant to work with him.
my guess is that QM singing at the start of the Pressure. that lil 10 secs at the beginning. then maybe did some ideas and maybe wrote or co-wrote the chorus. who knows
As talented as QM is he’s too emotional for this industry and he doesn’t stand on anything
This dude knows exactly what he doing. By leaving the question vaguely answered, he, in his own perception, garners more respect as a writer, which could potentially get him more work. Trouble is, rappers who may need ghostwriters now shy away from him for fear of being 'exposed'. I think this so much affected Nas that during his MSG performance of KD series, he emphasized that his stories come from the streets he emerged.
Vlad always tryna get at Nas
Young chris also gave jay lines and ideas too! But that doesn’t mean chris wrote all the hits! And that’s just facts! Shit styles helped write jadakiss best songs and some of kanye best joints too! Everyone has helped each other! It happens in all music genres
Quentin Miller wrote for Nas when the energy was directed at Drake everybody cracked jokes now that Nas been exposed for having a Ghostwriter now he wants clout 🤣I’m just waiting on that Nas reference track for I gave you power and all them other classics.
The only problem is when he did I gave you power dj premier already explained how nas did it I've been in the studio with nas trust me he writes everything even if I ruled the world with lauryn hill he wrote her part he's great
And now you see the purpose of this sucka shit. That young man never really answered the question, so why Vlad publish the interview? To discredit Nas and here you are believing something that was never stated. Vlad's a dick riding cum guzzler who makes a living off exploiting the pain in Black communities. He not the first and he won't be the last.
@@jaynice3562 damian marley even said it. He said Nas writes 5 verses and takes the best parts from it just for one song. But he said they trade ideas n concepts because nas makes alotta conceptual songs. Jungle said as well. His verses are pulled from experiences and conversations in the studio.
Problem with Nas is not that he can’t write rap but he just can’t write rap that fits today, it was always his problem after 90 s he couldn’t rap because beats changed way people rapped changed and he just doesn’t fit and Nas is Goated in 90 s new york era those beats and rap game suits Nas perfect and if he wants to adapt he totally needs help but fuuk I don’t see Nas in this era

Don't mind these millennial clowns.
That last thing he said is what gets this fool into stuff.. Did you have to add "That came out" at the end??
I can tell a lot of y'all niccas in the comments are buffoons. QM ain't say anything wrong. He was asked a question and he was diplomatic in his response.
HIS NAME IS IN THE DAMN CREDITS. What you want him to say? "Oh, I ain't do anything. Nas just gave me writers credit for no reason." LOL smh
@Rob305 When did I say he wrote Nas bars? I swear you fanboys are emotional for no reason.
This guy will be telling his grandkids he worked with Nas and still won’t be able to tell them exactly what he wrote 😂. The fact he just says this without detail is borderline defamation.
Bro hold your head up high, don't let random events define you. You made songs for Nas n Drake that's wild. Hold your head up
rgis why they told him clear it up he did not make songs for nas he said he worked wit him on one song
Y’all mad at him for not saying the specific things he wrote. But if he comes out and say he wrote some of the verse y’all gonna be quick to jump on him and say the industry shouldn’t trust him SMH
Well, my thing is, why do an interview and give vague answers? These are the worse type of interviews to watch. The interview ends with more questions than it started with
it's not always that easy to explain. everything goes back and forth when you are writing in the studio. It's not one person writing some lines and another person writing some lines then putting them together
It's one thing to throw ideas 💡 out and conceptualize but to blatantly lie and gives listeners the impression that you wrote📝 bar for bar is wack🤦♂️🤷♂️. I'm not one of those who minds if artists (especially rappers) work/collaborate with others in order to create a masterpiece as long as it's fire 🔥, but to get help only for it to be trash 🗑 would be a complete waste (no pun lol).
Some of Dre's biggest hits wouldn't be that had the ghostwriters released them, even when Jay wrote Still D.R.E it wouldn't have been the same. The art of delivery 🗣 is a skill in itself, 3 people can read the same sentence each in a different way. Had Q. Miller released the same songs aka the drake reference tracks before the completed drake versions none of those songs would've been as successful and he'd probably still be unknown.

CORMEGA wrote ALL of NaS’ verses on the ‘ IT WAS WRITTEN ‘ album 💿 it’s an industry secret 🤫 [following NaS’ illMatic debut .. he suffered from severe writer’s block .. & consequently, he wasn’t even able to contribute to projects like biggies album , etc. Steve Stoute , TrackMasters & the powers that be .. suggested the move .. & it worked 🤷🏿♂️ CORMEGA & NaS beef stemmed from that .. because MEGA was promised certain things in exchange for keeping hush on writing all those verses… & never received it .. & was even kicked out of THE FIRM. Following that album .. NaS received ‘writing’ help from certain ‘bravehearts’ members on songs where he wasn’t ‘ Free-styling’ , etc. later albums included entire ‘pen game’ from the likes of Dead Prez, Jay Electronica , etc. Recent albums include writing from the likes of Dave East, Hit Boy himself , & Quentin Miller 😞 Sad to to tell you all this .. but it is true. NaS is an absolute LEGEND .. BUT .. he is not the highly educated ultimate Emcee who he has been made out be 🙏🏿
Cormega and nas are worlds apart as far as flow and song concepts go. It was written Nas style was solely based on imagery and philosophical quotes and you often never knew if Nas was gonna end a bar on the 2nd, 3rd or 4th beat. And it was story telling oriented. Cormega almost always ends a bar on the 4th. His style wasn't imagery based nor was he a story teller. Flow wise he was basic but he does hit u with alotta philosophical quotes....n when they was beefing mega did everything to Nas other than a physical beating....he would ve exposed that if it was facts...

Well, in looking at what he did for Drake I can only assume it's along the lines of the same situation.. he gives people "assists" on records whether it be chorus ideas or the cadence for a verse.. when Drake worked with him he was releasing a lot of music.. same with Nas, he's released 4+ projects with HitBoy in a short timeframe. He lends help with song ideas. From the business standpoint, I understand it.. but as far as from a hip-hop standpoint which is where I stand.. the rule is simply.. "if I don't write it, I don't recite it".
Nas has always recorded at a high clip but the music doesn't get released. There's 3 albums at Columbia still, 25 unreleased AZ songs. An album with swizz music with Timbaland, etc
As talented as he is, why he gotta clear it up? That’s a good fuckin thing man
If you have listened to QM music or songs he wrote on “IYRTITL” the second verse when he slow down his rhyme scheme or rhythm in the bars it’s definitely QM type flow and bars but you can tell Nas lyricism mixed in. That’s probably y he don’t want to say he want traction in his music also. I bet he drop soon
Qm problem is unless he's a featured verse on these songs he shouldn't be publicly saying he working with rappers. He's smart enough to know at this point that people will perceive working with as ghost writing because wtf else would you be doing on the song? It's like you want to feel bad for him but in a way it seems like if rappers don't prop him up then he'll settle for the clout of being the "ghost" because atleast his name gets out more.

Then he said it to 1 of the BIGGEST Nas hatas it is, Vlad? This guy Vlad has a HARD on for Nas or something. He hates on him so much that he can't interview anybody without bringing up Nas name to see if or how much they hate Nas. He couldn't wait to put QM ghost writing fir Nas comment out to the public. A fkn disgrace to any race & especially talking our culture. Fkn culture vulture.
