On July 22, 2015, Meek Mill publicly criticized the rapper Drake on Twitter, after being upset with Drake's lack of involvement with the promotion of the album, claiming that he used rapper Quentin Miller as a ghostwriter.[1] The controversy caused Drake to respond with two diss songs within a week titled, "Charged Up", and "Back to Back".[2][3] Meek Mill responded with a counter-diss on July 31, 2015, with a diss song called "Wanna Know".
