Toronto councillor Norm Kelly and Philadelphia rapper Meek Mill feud on Twitter
Stop comparing drake to me too.... He don't write his own raps! That's why he ain't tweet my album because we found out! đ
—@MeekMillMiller has a songwriting credit on that song, along with five tunes from Drake's surprise "If You're Reading This It's Too Late."
In his post, Miller writes that he was an aspiring rapper, muddling in obscurity and working at a bakery, when Drake called him and told him he was "destined for greatness."
"I remember him playing it for me for the first time thinking, 'Why am I here?"'
"I am not and never will be a 'ghostwriter' for Drake," he writes. "I'm proud to say that we've collaborated, but I could never take credit for anything other than the few songs we've worked on together."
Toronto councillor Norm Kelly entered the fray earlier in the week when he tweeted that Mill, who performs here Tuesday, was no longer welcome in Toronto.
Mill fired back at Kelly on Twitter but Kelly didn't let the rapper win the war of words.
Aye white man <a href="https://twitter.com/norm">@norm</a> what gives you the audacity to tell me I can't come somewhere over me voicing my opinion! U sound like a thug lol
—@MeekMillAye American <a href="https://twitter.com/MeekMill">@MeekMill</a>. Didn't say don't come. Just puzzled why you'd diss a Canadian hero a week before coming to his city.
