Yesterday, XXL revealed that Drizzy would be working on a joint mixtape with Miami rapper Rick Ross, but would be scrapping a collaborative album with his Young Money CEO, Lil Wayne. No official reason was given for the decision but today XXL reveals the answer, and Drake has a pretty valid point. Check it out below.
“Me and Wayne scrapped the idea of a collaboration album. We just agreed that it would be looked upon as…It would be sort of this competition [with Watch The Throne]. I feel like it would get caught in this whirlwind of hype. [Wayne] agreed. We just said, ‘If we do it, we’ll do it down the line. But right now is not the time.’â€
YEA OK…THEY SCARED OF A LIL COMPETITION AINT THAT THE FOUNDATION OF HIP HOP!!!!!!!!!!
Yo Tony didn’t Wayne outsale WTT dolo ? They got a great point
Outsold if you believe those numbers to be truthful from a subpar album put out by Wayne. WTT was definitely a better album.
Fake numbers? Lol! Y would those be fake? Wayne has a huge followin outside of a hiphop audience,especially with the younger crowd whose parents buy them records.Jay is old n married and corp
Corporate is the word inwas tyPing b4 I got cutoff.anyway what young kid want to hear a 40+married dad who vacations in the south of France? J ain’t the same reasonable doubt emcee. Things have changed. Wayne outselling both of them? Damn i know that hurts their ego!
WTT was definitely a better album! Sales don’t mean shit when it comes to a wack album…and if you disagree, then you’re basically saying Vanilla Ice, MC Hammer, Tone Loc, and Young MC are better skilled MCs than Jay & Kanye.
cut it out fam men lie women lie numbers don’t jay said it himself when they were talkin bout money WTT was ok for 2 mega superstar rappers coulda been way better like dis nigga jay really had ballin on one of tha hooks nigga this is 2011 bruh !! u still gettin ya swagger back? sheesh come on jay bring reasonable doubt back half tha album was bout weezy ne ways smh…
LMFAO!!!! A Canadian actor turned rapper, a fake blood who wears womens leggings and a ex cop who fronts thug shit, damn, the sate of Hip Hop/Rap, that’s a collabo of studio gangstas indeed. Funny that before I wrote this, Mr.Degrassi High was tryin’ to act all hard on that NBA 2K12 comercial, LMFAO.
Rappers care about numbers,more sold =more $$$$! Don’t believe for a second Wayne doublin j & ye don’t effect dem two’s ego. Wayne dont need to collab with no one he is goin to more than double WTT. GAME DONE! http://www.etidbits.com/lil-waynes-that-carter-iv-likely-to-double-watch-the-throne-in-sales=8547
