Miller said about his publishing deal:

I’m working with a n___a that, literally, was about to change my life. Even though I was in my horrible, horrible, horrible publishing situation with Tricky [Stewart]. So, I never got a publishing check off of any Drake songs.

Miller continued saying,

I had to feed my family off getting paid under the table in that situation because Tricky and them wouldn’t let me go. I didn’t get out of that deal until 2019, 2020. I signed in 2011. They wouldn’t let me out. I had to let go of a lot of s__t just to get out. But even while I was in it, I never got a publishing check or nothing.
