MTV chopped it up with Drake, DJ Khaled and Rick Ross at Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter IV album release party on August 28th. Above, Drizzy speaks about who he looks up to in the music industry and what inspires him to work as hard as he does.
“I think for me to be part of a team and have the general, the boss, go sit it down for like eight months is always a difficult thing,” Drake told MTV News at the album release party for Weezy’s Tha Carter IV in Los Angeles on Sunday night. “That’s like a real responsibility. I’m just proud of the fact that myself and Nicki Minaj and the entire family were able to keep things afloat until he got out and was able to release this album.”
“It’s like if I choose to go after this and go kick it with a woman or go out for drinks, I know I’m potentially slippin’ because I have brothers like Rick Ross and Wayne that are working nonstop,” Drake said of his possible post-party plans. “Me being a kid from Canada coming into this whole thing, being able to observe my heroes do this shit, it’s like all I want to do is work. I just want to make this album as incredible as I can.”
“I really see the hardest-working people to ever do this. I see them, we speak, we have moments and talk and we’re in the same sessions,” Drizzy said of Wayne and Ross. “So I really sit back and digest it all and try to apply it to my own craft.”
After the jump, Drizzy speaks on Justin Bieber and him remixing his “Trust Issues” song.
“I wish he would’ve left all the cuss words in it. I feel like that would’ve been so G, if he would’ve done all the swearing,” Drake told MTV News from Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter IV release party on Sunday. “I was excited when I heard he remixed it, because there was like a gang of swearing in that song. I was like, ‘Oh, we’re about to hear the transformation of Bieber.’ ”
All in all, Drake was pretty excited about the remake. “He’s like a talented kid … from Canada, so to hear him even remix that song is crazy,” he said. “That’s incredible.”
