      Ye got Ghost Writers for 2 decades. It would be Hov on stage with Ye and about 25 ppl at least that assisted him to get his own thought process out over the years. Ye vs Drake where ghost writing is public knowledge is a better fit. Hov is the God that Kanye worships in Sunday Service. Kanye food

    "You see success then it's an outcome. If you succeed, prepare to be crucified. Every step you take, they remind you ghetto." Jay is sincerely the greatest rapper alive or ever. His message holds so much weigh in what's he saying. A young philosopher of the street and of life's trials & tribulations.
