And the videos from SOBs keep coming. Shouts to NahRight.
“Everybody is looking for this one joint with me and Jay, so that needs to happen,” Drake said. “My goal at this point is to keep making that organic music. I don’t wanna feel pressure now that I have a single and music that’s hot,” he added. “I don’t wanna be pressured … that, ‘Oh I have to have radio hits.’ I just wanna make music people enjoy.”
As Drake continues to impress fans and peers, he says that one guy he looks to for advice is none other than the head of his Young Money clique, Lil Wayne.
“Wayne is another one that — rap-wise, verse-wise — was my favorite,” he said. “And to be under his wing, to be able to interact with him on a daily basis and talk to him and get information from him — I’m in a blessed position. I have the greatest mentors, the greatest teachers in the world. They all have gradually started to embrace me more and more, so it’s a great feeling.”

I agree with foxxy. seems like everybody is on his d**k hard right now but dont know s**t about the original Drake performing “The City is Mine.” I’m glad he’s making it but his new fans are so artificial

Unfortunately a rapper has to make it commerical before the big money starts rolling in so I’m happy for Drake. I’ve been a huge fan of his acting career and I had no idea he was a rapper until about a year and a half ago. We’re not artifical…we’re just were unaware.
