LIL WAYNE & DRAKE COLLABO ALBUM COMING
Baby tells XXL Magazine that Lil Wayne and Drake’s joint album will
come after their solos.
Rap fans in love with Jay-Z and Kanye West’s joint album, Watch the
Throne, can brace themselves for another release by different Hip-Hop dynamic
duo: Lil Wayne and Drake.
Although he didn’t name a tentative date, Cash Money Records founder
Bryan “Baby” Williams confirmed with XXL that Weezy and Drizzy
will definitely be putting out a collaborative album together well after each
deliver their respective solo efforts.
“Wayne and I recently talked about [the Weezy/Drake collabo album],”
Baby told XXLMag.com. “That’s definitely going to get done.”
Birdman promises that Wayne and Drake will offer up a different sound from
that of Jay and ‘Ye.
“It’s older versus younger,” Baby said. “I listened
to a few songs [off Watch The Throne] and it feels like an older feel to me.
I think with Drake and Wayne, they young. They young cats. You got 23 and
28...So, it’s two different types of music all the way across the board.
“But what they’re doing is great,” he added. “I think
it’s great for the game, great for the business, great for retail as
a whole. I just think when Wayne and Drake get together is going to be something
real special also because we more youthful.”
While a Wayne/Drake collabo LP is certainly something to look forward to
in the foreseeable future, the Cash Money/Young Money camp currently has all
its sights set on Weezy’s Tha Carter IV, which drops on August 29, followed
by Drake’s sophomore LP, Take Care on October 24.
