Vory's Reference Track for Drake's 'Mob Ties' Surfaces Online

In what seems to be another leak in the operation (pun intended), another reference track for Drake has leaked online. Only this time, instead of Lil Yachty (who sent a reference for ‘Jumbotron S**t Poppin‘), it is actually Vory’s vocal performance demo for the hugely successful Drake track, ‘Mob Ties‘.

Kendrick Lamar Shakes Up The Super Bowl With Bold Drake Diss And Surprise Guests

Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl 59 halftime performance was nothing short of legendary, leaving fans buzzing with surprise cameos and bold moments that took his long-running feud with Drake to new heights. Kicking off with an unreleased song snippet and followed by “Squabble Up” from his latest album GNX, Kendrick immediately set the tone for a game-changing performance. Fans eagerly waited to see if Kendrick would play his diss track Not Like Us, especially with Drake's ongoing lawsuit against him and his label for defamation and harassment. Lamar's performance included an unexpected appearance by SZA and a quirky cameo from Serena Williams, along with Samuel L. Jackson’s comedic interruptions, all building the suspense around the Drake drama. In the middle of his performance, Kendrick turned up the heat, looking straight into the camera and directly addressing Drake with his famous lyrics, “I heard you like them young," as fans held their breath. Despite the tension, Kendrick censored himself when it came time to call Drake a "certified lover boy" and avoided saying “pedophile,” which had been widely speculated. Social media lit up with mixed reactions, with some fans mocking the performance as a "mid mashup" and others noting the intense hostility toward Drake. With the hashtag #KendrickBowl trending, it’s clear that Kendrick’s performance was a cultural moment that pushed boundaries—but has he gone too far, or is this just another chapter in hip-hop history? Only time will tell, and Drake has yet to respond.

The song has been a topic of much controversy and discussion, with fans generating conspiracy theories on how Drake may have been involved in the murder of rapper XXXtentacion based primarily off a bar on ‘Mob Ties’. In it, Drake mentions how he is trading Louis Vuitton bags in exchange for body bags — an eerie coincidence considering how witnesses claim to have seen X’s shooters with Louis bags on them. Now, however, the fans are confused as it seems like Drake may not have even written the bar himself!

While the reference track seems to be an authentic recording by Vory, it is important to note that he is actually already credited as one of the writers on the controversial record. If you’re wondering where, it’s the last name in the writing credits (T. Hollins Jr, short for Tavoris Javon Hollins Jr.).

The true contention, really, is how much of it was actually written by Vory? If the demo is any indication, it is likely that Vory wrote majority of the track, for why would an artist have an entire flow ready for a track they wrote less of? Craft wise, the act of finding flow pockets and writing the song are processes that go hand in hand more often than not.

Remember when DJ Akademiks said:
“He [Vory] is credited,
but he ain’t write NOTHING!!”
Well, well.. just another case of Drake Stans bein in denial and out of touch with reality.

With these coming to light (no, not a Daylyt pun) the pertinent question is: how much of a ‘hitmaker’ really is Drake? With multiple number 1’s on the Billboard Hot 100, how many are really written just by Drake? We just have no way of knowing!
