Apparently, has an unlimited budget because he’s “the greatest.”
HipHopDX ran into Universal Music Group CEO Sir Lucian Grainge and asked him about Drake’s budget by referring to a bar on the classic track “Stay Schemin,” where Drake raps, “Tell Lucian I said ‘fuck it,’ I’m tearin’ holes in my budget.”
“If ever Drake or whenever Drake calls up and says he needs something for his project, I give it to him,” Grainge says with a smile. “Because he’s the greatest.”
Strong praise from the boss himself. Drake most recently released a pair singles with frequent collaborator titled “Desires” and “Life is Good.” Fans expect a follow-up to What A Time To Be Alive could be one the way soon.
RadRadar’s Brian “B. Dot” Miller on Genius’ For The Record and discussed what he’s heard from Drake’s upcoming music: “Prior to the interview, Drake sent me a record. He just said he wanted to set the tone the interview. It’s incredible. It sounds like one those timestamp joints… It’s just one those kinda flamboyant kind records. It has a great sample to it, everyone’s going to love it. It’s called ‘Say When.’ I think Elliot talked about that in that. He’s talkin’ that — He be talkin’ that sh*t.”
