Lil Wayne was also quoted in Vibe Magazine saying this after being asked on being compared to Drake musically, and if he measures up to Lil Wayne’s talent: “I don’t look at it like that. Drake is my artist. If he wasn’t my artist, then yeah maybe. But that’s my artist. He’s not [just] a friend. We’re more than friends. It’s business. It would be impossible for it to be a competition. I mean, I’m the guy’s boss.” NO RESPECT. Drake is being used. He needs to get out of the deal.

Plus: I feel as if Pusha wasn’t even disrespecting Drake in “Exodus 23:1.” He’s just telling Drake that he shouldn’t keep being used as Wayne’s and Baby’s money-making pawn. They don’t care about him, they just care that he is bringing in money for their business. That’s why Drake is allowed so much musical freedom while artists such as Tyga, Nicki Minaj and everyone else on the label have pop-rap styles, because that’s what YMCMB wants out of them. Pusha is only telling Drake to get out of that fake family situation, as he should. That’s why he reference’s Wayne “waving his flag” during the song. Drake has sold his soul to the industry, the money and the label. So much to where he is throwing up blood gang signs in his music videos. He could do so much better under another label, or even independently. Get out Drake!

I’d love to see GOOD put YMCMB in their place. They are pop artists, not hip hop artists. This is not even fair. I have alot of respect for Drake but nobody else on the label. I feel as if Drake is pulling away from YM by focusing his image on the OVOXO movement. Great decision on his part, in my opinion. Drake is too talented for YMCMB. And GOOD will destroy them musically.
