Earlier this year, veteran West Coast MC Rappin' 4-Tay called outDrake for copying his rhymes on YG's song, "Who Do You Love." Drizzy never officially responded to the claims, but today TMZ is reporting that Drake's camp has agreed to pay 4-Tay $100K for the use of the lyrics, though no lawsuit was filed in the matter. Referencing old songs in rap isn't something new at all, but getting $100K for doing it certainly is. Stay tuned for more details as they become available.

Listen to both of the songs below and see for yourself how close they are flow and lyrics wise.
