In an interview with VladTV, Miller touched on his work for Drake’s If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late and alleged that he “never got a publishing check off any Drake songs.” He continued that music exec Tricky Stewart and his team refused to release him from his 2011 deal until 2019 or 2020. “I had to feed my family off getting paid under the table in that situation,” he said. “I had to let go of a lot of shit just to get out.

From Bad Bunny to Rihanna, Who Should Headline Coachella 2023? Vote!
We’re only three and a half months away from the 2023 Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival, which means this year’s headliners should be announced any day now. However, before that big reveal comes, we want to know who you think should take the main stage in Indio, Calif. this April. Frank Ocean is, obviously, the best bet for this year’s festival in the desert, considering he was originally supposed to headline the 2020 iteration along with Rage Against the Machine and Travis Scott before it was canceled by the onslaught of the coronavirus pandemic. He’s also previously been announced as one of the main acts this April, so if that holds true, two other headliners will be joining him on the lineup. Both Bad Bunny and Rihanna are also strong contenders among Billboard‘s predictions. T...
