The world finally got a chance to hear some of what Drake and Jay-Z have been keeping under wraps in the studio for so long. Their collaboration "Off That" from the Blueprint 3 album leaked on Sunday. Recently Drizzy told us that he and Jay have aligned on more than just that record and are actually due to finish up more music soon.
"We got to work a couple nights, actually," Drake explained. "We did a few joints and from what I hear we're going back in to try and get some more stuff done."
The impact of working with Hov has been immense for the 22-year-old MC.
"Jay has been one of the most special people to me in this game," he said. "I don't think I'll ever forget the nights me and Jay had in the studio, and the things he'll tell me and just the way he embraced me. It's one of the best feelings in my life. Jay is one of those guys that you can say, 'I look up to this guy,' or 'I like this guy's music.' I wanted to be Jay. That's what they say about the best artists. To be a great rapper, men gotta wanna be you and women gotta wanna ... you know. I wanna be myself, but for me to say, 'If I couldn't be me, I wanted to be that man' — that's huge. ... To have that man in my life and to be able to interact with him and talk to him and, best of all, work with him — there's not a real sentence I can say to describe it. Hopefully Jay and Drake are as powerful as Drake and Wayne. I hope people see that union and it comes up more than once in the future."
