Drake has finally responded to claims that some of his lyrics were written by ghostwriters. Meek Mill originally made the accusations on Twitter, saying that Drake used a ghostwriter for his guest appearance on the star's recent LP. The accusations then led to diss tracks being exchanged, and barbed jibes over the course of several weeks. Drake defended himself by saying that "music can be a collaborative process" in a recent interview with The Fader. "I need, sometimes, individuals to spark an idea so that I can take off running," Drake said. "Music at times can be a collaborative process, you know? Who came up with this, who came up with that - for me, it's like, I know that it takes me to execute every single thing that I've done up until this point. And I'm not asham

Kanye West had previously hinted that the follow up to his 2013 album 'Yeezus' could arrive this year, but has failed to actually appear despite the release of his song 'All Day' in March. In a new interview with Vanity Fair, West describes 'Swish' as a "two year painting" and readily admits that he could potentially still be working on the album in another 12 months. "I've been doing that (making a new album) too," he said. "That's like a sonic landscape, a two-year painting." West has already debuted another new song, 'Fade' at a New York Fashion Week event, another track that he's been working on for some time apparently. "That song I played has been a year and a half in the making and it may be still a year from being complete," West says. <

'What A Time To Be Alive' is the brand new joint mixtape released by Drake and Future. The mixtape will be available as an Apple Music exclusive for one week and was debuted by Drake on his OVO Sound Radio show on Apple’s Beats 1 on September 22. "When you get around Future it's like vortex," Drake said while presenting OVO Sound Radio. He went on to say he just went to Future's hometown of Atlanta to do "a few songs" but the collaboration grew into something more. "It's a little soundtrack for the people who need it right now," Drake added. Drake and Future toured the US together earlier in the year. Future's most recent LP, 'DS2', which was released in July, featured Drake on 'Where Ya At'. Meanwhile, Drake is believed to be working on new studio album 'Vi

Pharrell has confirmed there will be another N.E.R.D. record, speaking in a Twitter Q&A. Williams answered questions from fans via iHeartRadio's Twitter account on Tuesday (September 22).

Waka Flocka Flame has gone ahead to clarify his earlier remarks about Caitlyn Jenner through social media, after being criticized for being transphobic earlier in the week. Speaking to 'The Breakfast Club' earlier in the week, Waka made the following remarks on Jenner: "They don't market families and husbands and wives anymore.
