Artist and writer Quentin Miller recently stopped by the New Rory & Mal podcast where he went in depth about his career, the 2015 beef between Drake and Meek Mill, and his involvement in the beef. Towards the end, he spoke on work that he has been doing recently, and said that he almost had a writing credit on Cardi B’s latest single “Hot Sh*t” until A$AP Rocky convinced everybody the bar he came up with was wack.

He recalled the picture of himself, Pusha-T and Kanye and gave some more backstory to the photo.

He said that The Game invited him to a session with Push and Ye while Ye was working on his verse for Cardi’s “Hot Sh*t.” He said a bar and Ye and Pusha really liked the bar. He was excited that he was finally going to have a writing credit for Kanye West, whom he credited as his biggest inspiration earlier in the interview. He said that later, A$AP Rocky came into the studio and Ye played him his verse. He said that A$AP liked the verse, except for one line. And that one line he didn’t like was Quentin’s.

“I contribute a line, I say a line. He’s like, ‘Oh, that’s hard!’ Records it. Pusha, hyping me up — that’s my man — he comes over and he’s like, ‘Yo, that shit’s hard!’ Everybody’s loving it,” Miller said. He went on, saying: “30 minutes later, Rocky walks into the room. He’s like, ‘Yeah, it’s just this one line that I want you to change.’ And he picks my line! He didn’t know. So then Kanye’s like, ‘But I really like that line.’ 10 minutes go by and Rocky’s like, ‘Nah, man. You gotta change that line!’ And I don’t have enough clout! I’m sitting there like …”

Dom Kennedy Enjoys The Simple Things In His Breezy ‘Don’t Walk Away’ Video With Quentin Miller

Dom Kennedy is back, bringing former Drake co-writer Quentin Miller along in the new video for “Don’t Walk Away.” The West Coast summertime stalwart returned with a smooth new album of low-key luxury lifestyle lyrics, From The Westside With Love Three. As usual, Hit-Boy provides production, sampling the 2000 DJ Quik and Sugafree single “Don’t Walk Away” for a mellow, breezy jam over which Dom and Quentin brag about their accomplishments and possessions.

The video finds the two rappers throwing a laid-back get-together after-hours at Honey’s Kettle Chicken in LA (which I will never forgive for moving out of my beloved Compton). As some lady friends hang out, dance, and eat in the front of the shop, the fellas convene for a private card game at a secondary location. Dom also shows off his Porsche collection outside a garage, soaking up the LA sunshine.

Kennedy has experienced something of a resurgence in recent years, regaining momentum from his Yellow Tape era thanks to his partnership with Hit-Boy. From The Westside Three is his third album in as many years, and on each, he’s sounded revitalized, rapping with fervor and grace we haven’t heard from him in nearly a decade. Wherever this new burst of inspiration came from, let’s all hope it remains consistent because the blog-era favorite deserves this success.

Watch Dom Kennedy’s breezy “Don’t Walk Away” video with Quentin Miller above.
