00:00Drake reportedly gave away 100% of his new song's writing money, and the internet can't agree on
00:04why. His Don Toliver collab Solar Eclipse remixes Ella Langley's country hit Shoes in Texas.
00:09DJ Academic says Drake gave up his publishing, and if true, this means Ella and her co-writers
00:14would get everything. Now, country music outlet Haller calls this unprecedented. They say it
00:18highlights Drake's feud with Universal, his link to Ella Langley, and his whole approach to music.
00:23But online fans are split three ways. Camp 1 says Drake is a GOAT and a true man of the
00:28people.
00:28Camp 2 thinks it's strictly business, explaining with so many writers on the track,
00:32his payout was tiny anyway. But Camp 3 isn't buying it at all. They're asking if he's this
00:36generous, why not clear the other songs fans have been begging for forever? Now, here's why this
00:40actually matters. Writing money and recording money are completely separate, meaning Drake still likely
00:45earns on the track itself, making this look less like charity and more like a trade for a whole
00:49new country audience. Drake hasn't confirmed any of this yet, so it's your turn to jump into the
00:54debate. Is he a generous artist, a genius marketer, or is there something else going on?
