I don't think people are understanding the point. Dude was blackballed in the industry. No one wanted their name surrounded by Quentin in any way shape or form. Especially in rap.
I’m with Quentin. Meek used him for spite and a lie! Dude is a credited writer along with 5 other people. It should not have even been so exciting. There was no secret in the sessions. It was bandwagon hate and drama.
Jay Rock Jinx drake can write but he basically used someone’s style and voice. It’s not about the lyrics even tho the lyrics were good it was the things he would talk about the way he spoke about things. Drake still uses it today. That’s why meek said his name ova everyone else cuz drake washed him with someone else whole style and raps and meek is a rapper. It’s like finding out em washed jay z on renegade with a lot of help. Like that whole Rico verse was Quentin’s idea. As an artist I know the new idea is worth more than most things in that process.
Joe Budden should not act clueless to what being “blackballed” is. After the jayz beef at the beginning, he couldn’t get his career off of the ground. Drake is an A list name and meek is not far behind. They have the clout to make his life in music difficult.
True but the difference is Joe held his own lyrically with Jayz he did the same thing with Drake .. Their huge fanbases just over shawdow Joe's talent..ijs
ARTFUL 1 joe is nice, which proves my point that no matter how nice you are in rap, certain entities can block your path. He had to find his lane and now he blessed. Thanks to his perseverance.
I don't get what's so hard for people to understand about this and was honestly a bit surprised none of the podcast crew even entertained this as a possibility.
Yo it really is dope. Quentin, if you see this, know that your solo shit is great. Your mind works differently from any of these other rappers. Your pen is different and really (like really) great. 'Make em dial the gate just in case.' Shit like that, just different and fresh. I wish you'd keep doing it. Pure talent.
There have been much bigger artists that have been blackballed in the industry before. Why is it hard to believe he's been shut out to some degree? Lol clearly his video says that he's tried all the shit y'all are suggesting
Exactly bro not going to lie every single podcast/RUclipsr/commentator that I’ve seen talking about it have been avoiding that point. They know how the industry works more then us so why they acting like they don’t know what’s up already
Rickey Bernard I actually really respected AK for his stance and just talking about the humanity part of it, I mean take away the blackballing part this man got jumped for no reason, made fun of to eternity, and lost a leg, like if industry people really had a heart they would give this guy a shit based on just everything he’s been through
Y'all really did not listen to this man at all he wasn't saying he was having a hard time finding people to write for/work he was saying it feels its impossible for him to break out as a artist for whatever the reasons mentioned.
He continuously insists he helped w/ 5 tracks and doesn’t want all the credit Bc he wants his own career but ppl don’t listen Bc it isn’t consistent with their agenda. According to them Miller wrote everything for Drake and the only purpose he serves is evidence that Drake is a bad artist. He should be allowed to exist in his own space, if you appreciate music you should at least allow him that.
Crazy part is people hate him for not admitting to writing full songs for Drake. Like, they want him to say he did something he didn't do just so itll fit their narrative. He got jumped for not admitting to it. Shits crazy.
Remember when game put out that meek diss and he said "you jumped Quinton miller and now you don't scrap, time to go at drizzy and now you don't rap". I had no idea who Quinton miller was at that time lol. Also had no idea meek was the one who jumped him.
@@c.elizabeth3451 man Joe is industry now tbh. He's been for a minute, but he pushed the narrative of integrity so I gave him the benefit of the doubt. We can't trust these clowns. We have to make our own blueprint and let these dogs have their master's crumbs.
Rickey Bernard between the Gayle King playing victim thing, breakfast club and the Malik yoba interview, this, Oprah, Dwayne Wade parading his sons sexual confusion through the media.. my faith in black media is at an all time low
I think it’s corny af the way Joe and Rory clowned him. And Park saying it’s “impossible” for him to not work after this like it was that simple is bullshit. Ever thought maybe he got blackballed after that situation?
He's clearly working, how long has it been since he was spotlighted? Years, is he working at the grocery store again? No. He's eating but he wants to be an artist, he has a very good pen but he's lacking in other aspects of being a good artist
Blackballed by the entire universe? People will work with even 69 because the records will work...people will do anything for money if he could produce records that were that good. He’s not putting that work in.
Joe is talking from experience. He believes his pen is tight and nobody is checking for him to write for them. QM probably had projects lined up with Drake and Meek Mill ruined it.
Comprehension skills went out the window on this one guys. Either that or y’all are literally choosing not to understand what he’s been going through because you don’t care.
Why are they scared to say that he's black balled? Any other mega superstar(kanye/Nicki) they automatically assume they use their power to do it but they won't say it now cause its drake? Foh
Ya'll too damn corny bro. I just hope someone sees his potential, even if he ain't a S class artiste he still can be good and do shows and feel comfortable in life.
@@mlkt8550 ppl blame drake for anything just out of pure spite and disdain for him...if Quinten Miller get shot today, they looking at Drake like "it's your fault, you shoulda kept him"....smh
The man said people aren't really rocking with him and the incident negatively impacted his career, but they spent 12 mins trying to refute that. 😩 He released music & he's probably trying to move behind the scenes but it's not working. People probably don't wanna touch anything associated with that Meek/Drake situation. 😩
qm dropped several singles and a couple projects soon after the whole drake thing. the issue is that hes pretty much been blacklisted in the industry, he hasnt been featured, nor has he featured any popular artists. hes tried to create his own wave, but he isnt garnering the audience he should to be honest. its really a losing situation hes been placed in. the guys too talented for it not to make sense to someone why its this way.
its quite simple. he was introduced to the industry and social media as the guy who ghostwrites for Drake. They didn't even give him his fair due. Its almost impossible to break from that shell unfortunately.
I honestly thought the reference tracks sounded more authentic, ppl are sheep & will LITERALLY not like a great song just cause it doesn't have "such & such" popular artist
How is what Quentin Miller saying "impossible" to believe? Do you know how easy it is for someone in Drake's position to blackball someone? He is a ghost writer, not a star rapper (although he raps). So many producers were blackballed due to issues with mainstream artists, so it's not farfetched to believe that is the case for him. However, he isn't marketable as a rapper himself. So unless he plans on ghostwriting for someone else, then he never had a chance to blow up as a rapper and therefore labels aren't touching because of that. He doesn't have the likeness nor personality to be a household name. He can rap but that only gets you so far.
He has every right to. But at least he can now create his own legacy outside of Drake. He might have to change his name for rebranding purposes but if you genuinely are creative you will win in life and career...facts or facts?
Quentin can write his ass off but some of his songs he seems dead. Like he doesn't wanna be there almost. Those reference tracks had no type of delivery or energy. It was just bland.
I think y’all really being dishonest about gatekeepers on this episode lol, y’all saying he should be good but the facts are the facts that man has clearly been blackballed lmao
Well you right to a degree but its obvious every label hopes for a drake feature so they wont risk pissing off drake for a guy who could possibly make hits consistently at the same time the cat was running down the street that's how someone even knew to get a statement from him
QM could have handled that situation much differently then he did. He wanted his light, and maybe seen that as a opportunity to shine. I would’ve denied the information and said I helped the biggest artist who at that time was on the biggest stage. He played his self!
I find it impossible to believe too.. this man is TOO nice with a pen. And he wrote songs for Drake. Literally any RAPPER in ANY hood would pay for this mans pen game. Like a up and coming or underground or mainstream artist.. he also has features so he still working with people..
When people try to dismiss Quentin's artistry by comparing his reference tracks to Drake's final product, they're only demonstrating ignorance to the value of the mixing and mastering process. Drake's flow is pretty sick in its own right, but you can't deny that Quentin Miller has such a sick pocket with the rhythm of his flow. QM is like listening to Thelonious Monk or Charles Mingus and Drake is like listening to some really good pop. If you love music, there should be room in your heart for both. Both artists are sick. Don't ever downplay the artistic value of Quentin Miller. As you can tell from the comments, it makes you look inauthentic and a suspected Drake jockey. ps. It might be possible to be a Drake jockey AND a fan of all good music too. Give it a try! ;)
Damn that’s fucked up just like how they laugh and brush him off saying “he’ll be alright” is probably how everybody in the industry treat him... he’s telling y’all his struggles and get instant disbelief and he’s not working hard enough
He’s not blackballed. He’s actually doing what they’re saying he should do.... Taking advantage of the spotlight on the album anniversary, and using it to promote him self to the world and labels..my works the same.. union construction, sometimes having a job can come down to which person they like more. Talent or not
They are missing the point. This is pretty much equivalent to being outed as a whistleblower, without even leaking information himself. There is a thing as being blackballed. once the majority of key people who you once networked with and did work for not fucking with you, it’s tough as hell. He can probably get some work now, but not at the level he was at and the caliber of people he was once dealing with. Shits deflating
"I've been counted out so many times I couldn't count it".... " Sauce dripping like water drippin from a fountain" I don't know what Rory's saying but that delivery was fire.
I just knew Mal was gonna piss me off the most in this clip (I would've bet money on it), but I was wrong. Surprisingly it was Parks...and somewhat Rory.
The funniest part of this is... the nigga wrote standout lines in 10 bands and the first thing Joe says is " This nigga said OMG, man drake is the greatest " 😂😂 you cant script that yall.. you just can't..
Parks completely missing the point. HE wants to be an artist, not write for someone else anymore. And NOBODY was gonna risk their relationship with Drake, for Q Miller... Unless they already had beef w Drake.
I like QM music... I fuck with WDNG CRSHS. He don’t wanna just be a ghost writer his whole life. He puts out music and his music is dope. He just need to keep fuckin with Nick Miles and keep creating that sound.
This is why the whole “ I am my brothers keeper” “Black excellence” shit thats going om in the industry is bs .they only care about the black entertainers that are doing good or making them money.
reasons i don’t watch this podcast.. joe you’re the 🐐 but these dudes are soo fucking biased my man, QM was hit way harder than these guys have realized just to have y’all up here laughing and joking about the situation, shits corny.. shoutout to Joe, QM & 1317!
You can't ruin what never started, he was just writing before coming out but what Meek did was still foul from that perspective, especially after making up with Aubrey
These guys are getting industry. They should just say it as it is. Q Miller will find it hard to get writing/producing jobs or music out since most guys will be scared of crossing Drake and/or Meek
Cut the bull. We all know what’s up. Quentin been beat up, lost a leg, and on top of that Drake still to the day mocks him and his career. I guarantee people ain’t fucking with Quentin to stay on Drakes good side
Y’all are low for this one. Joe, with as much shit as you went through with the industry, most people would like to think you can relate to what he’s saying and not just go in on him. Quentin’s penmanship is top-tier, just his delivery is shit. Either way he is needed in the industry so hopefully he can get some recognition from other labels as a writer if nothing else. Still and major fan and much love.
I heard Drake gave up Quinton as his ghost writer when Meek and his crew caught on to the subliminal shots he had in his verse for the song they was doing together at the studio...
I dont see what's funny about his sitsituation, this guy is being blacklisted from the only passion he has, notice how OG maco was buzzing craazy until he got vocal on the quentin situation & literally just hit a brick wall
I thought y’all kept it real on this podcast. Y’all was over here laughing at this man losing his livelihood, his peace... not cool man. Quentin got done wrong but I guess cause Drake’s in this we negating the fact he’s getting blackballed 🤐 smh....
Hey! Don’t diss wired headphones! My husband just lost his ear pods to a London train track just as the train was pulling up. He could’ve caught them had they had wires! 😂

QM is like listening to Thelonious Monk or Charles Mingus and Drake is like listening to some really good pop. If you love music, there should be room in your heart for both. Both artists are sick. Don't ever downplay the artistic value of Quentin Miller. As you can tell from the comments, it makes you look inauthentic and a suspected Drake jockey. ps. It might be possible to be a Drake jockey AND a fan of all good music too. Give it a try! ;)
Damn that’s fucked up just like how they laugh and brush him off saying “he’ll be alright” is probably how everybody in the industry treat him... he’s telling y’all his struggles and get instant disbelief and he’s not working hard enough
He’s not blackballed.
He’s actually doing what they’re saying he should do....
Taking advantage of the spotlight on the album anniversary, and using it to promote him self to the world and labels..my works the same.. union construction, sometimes having a job can come down to which person they like more. Talent or not
RIP POP SMOKE 😔
I don't even know about this, just came across him a couple of pods ago..... Ish crazy
They are missing the point. This is pretty much equivalent to being outed as a whistleblower, without even leaking information himself. There is a thing as being blackballed. once the majority of key people who you once networked with and did work for not fucking with you, it’s tough as hell. He can probably get some work now, but not at the level he was at and the caliber of people he was once dealing with. Shits deflating
drink every time Rory says "to a degree"
also meek mandela is hilarious
"I've been counted out so many times I couldn't count it"....
" Sauce dripping like water drippin from a fountain" I don't know what Rory's saying but that delivery was fire.
He is 💯 right. I don’t understand why people keep talking bad about him. This world is so trash.
I just knew Mal was gonna piss me off the most in this clip (I would've bet money on it), but I was wrong. Surprisingly it was Parks...and somewhat Rory.
The funniest part of this is... the nigga wrote standout lines in 10 bands and the first thing Joe says is " This nigga said OMG, man drake is the greatest " 😂😂 you cant script that yall.. you just can't..
must be hard being a drake hater, following him everywhere even on the charts
Y’all wrong for laughing at a legend .. boi got more bars and flows then all 3 of y’all put together
Parks completely missing the point. HE wants to be an artist, not write for someone else anymore. And NOBODY was gonna risk their relationship with Drake, for Q Miller... Unless they already had beef w Drake.
"If you're reading this and shit" has to be the sequel
I like QM music... I fuck with WDNG CRSHS. He don’t wanna just be a ghost writer his whole life. He puts out music and his music is dope. He just need to keep fuckin with Nick Miles and keep creating that sound.
Miller is having trouble so if y'all feel that way why not help him out, y'all hear him asking for help
They don't care.
Right. He been through a lot
This is why the whole “ I am my brothers keeper” “Black excellence” shit thats going om in the industry is bs .they only care about the black entertainers that are doing good or making them money.
I love quinten Miller's music though... its a vibe. Also his duo group, WDNG crshrs 🔥🔥🔥 screw the industry just do u
I feel like this podcast is scared to talk bout drake lol
reasons i don’t watch this podcast.. joe you’re the 🐐 but these dudes are soo fucking biased my man, QM was hit way harder than these guys have realized just to have y’all up here laughing and joking about the situation, shits corny.. shoutout to Joe, QM & 1317!
You can't ruin what never started, he was just writing before coming out but what Meek did was still foul from that perspective, especially after making up with Aubrey
Parks is only good for satire..his opinion on artists is terrible ..the point is missed..seems as if he is black balled and parks finds it impossible
These guys are getting industry. They should just say it as it is. Q Miller will find it hard to get writing/producing jobs or music out since most guys will be scared of crossing Drake and/or Meek
He should be mad at Drake not Meek...
Cut the bull. We all know what’s up. Quentin been beat up, lost a leg, and on top of that Drake still to the day mocks him and his career. I guarantee people ain’t fucking with Quentin to stay on Drakes good side
Meek needs to make amends with QM.
This world is sick that ppl judge cause you have wired headphones. Or cause someone has Droid over iPhone. Sickening
Y’all are low for this one. Joe, with as much shit as you went through with the industry, most people would like to think you can relate to what he’s saying and not just go in on him. Quentin’s penmanship is top-tier, just his delivery is shit. Either way he is needed in the industry so hopefully he can get some recognition from other labels as a writer if nothing else.
Still and major fan and much love.
If Drake doesn’t wanna work with you......most of the rap world is gonna follow suit
I heard Drake gave up Quinton as his ghost writer when Meek and his crew caught on to the subliminal shots he had in his verse for the song they was doing together at the studio...
I dont see what's funny about his sitsituation, this guy is being blacklisted from the only passion he has, notice how OG maco was buzzing craazy until he got vocal on the quentin situation & literally just hit a brick wall
He wrote for Wiz Khalifa too. And loads of other artists we don’t know about. QM is a 🐐
Imagine laughing at brother for missing out on An opportunity.
lmaooo why da fuck joe blinking so much 😆
Ain’t no allegedly, bro. 😂
I thought y’all kept it real on this podcast. Y’all was over here laughing at this man losing his livelihood, his peace... not cool man. Quentin got done wrong but I guess cause Drake’s in this we negating the fact he’s getting blackballed 🤐 smh....
Hey! Don’t diss wired headphones! My husband just lost his ear pods to a London train track just as the train was pulling up. He could’ve caught them had they had wires! 😂
Lol, they sayin get to work like he wasn't actually already releasing his own music. He's blackballed forever it ain't hard to tell
