The Short Version
In July 2015, Meek Mill accused Drake of using a ghostwriter for his verse on their collaboration track 'R.I.C.O.' and other songs. The dispute led to a series of high-profile diss tracks, including Drake's 'Charged Up' and 'Back to Back Freestyle', and Meek Mill's 'Wanna Know'. The pair publicly resolved their conflict in September 2018 when Meek Mill joined Drake onstage in Boston.
