After all the hype and success of Jay-Z and Kanye’s big collaborative effort, Watch the Throne, Cash Money’s Baby takes matters into his own hands by confirming that Lil’ Wayne and Drake will put out a collaborative album of their own, boasting that after their solo projects, The Carter IV (hitting stores August 29th) and Take Care (dropping October 24th) are released, the Young Money millionaires get to work on their own merger.
“Wayne and I recently talked about the Weezy/Drake collabo album,” Baby told XXLMag.com. “That’s definitely going to get done.”
“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. Then you got Jay-Z and them, who are older and really on their way out the game. Then you got Wayne and Drake and them, who are still youthful to the game. So, it’s two different types of music all the way across the board.”
On their way out? Baby also added:
“But what they’re doing is great. 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.”
A Lil’ Wayne and Drake album could be cool, considering that the two have had great chemistry in the past. However, it’d be interesting to hear their take on it, especially given the content on Watch the Throne. The confirmation from the Cash Money CEO seemed a bit like taking shots at Kanye and Jay.
TEAIRRA MARI SIGNS NEW DEAL
Some have dubbed her the queen of the mixtape, or the queen of WorldStarHipHop, but Teairra Mari seems to still be making moves, regardless of the fact that her album has been green lit and halted several times. On the set of her new video, “That’s All Me,” the former Roc-A-Fella signee announces exclusively to Rap-Up.com that she’s now officially signed to Rico Love’s Division1 label.
Before, Mari inked a deal with Warner Bros. Records and only released an EP entitled Sincerely Yours, with no solid release date for her sophomore album, which has gone through a couple of title changes and had countless single attempts. Hopefully, this new merger between hitmaker Rico Love and Teairra will get the ball rolling on her often delayed project.
yeah baby has been takin shots at Jay for years now.
and congrats to Teirra Marie. Hopefully this new deal works out for her this time.
LOL! that was hilarious! Baby how old is your ass?! he pushing niggas out the game! LOL!! i’m still laughing!
Honestly that’s all lil Wayne baby kanye an jay do is that subliminals at each other but when ppl go in a uproar thwy deny it so the media wont possibly blow it up an take it to a biggie tupac level…as far as the album goes um we shall see…
THOSE AREN’T CALLED SUBLIMINALS, THEY’RE INDIRECTS
SOMEONE GET BABY A THESAURUS
This Dude is Str8 Tripping how is the content on Watch The Throne Older..nah its just got some classic ish on it..Dudes a Hater..and what does he mean by “we are more youthful” i hope he didnt include him self in that statement..Dude you can hang around and try to dress like LiL Twist all u want we know you knocking on senior citizen age..LoL..but a Drizzy and Wayne album would be cool!!!
LOL! …..and Drake’s only 23? hmmmmm ok.
They have been talking about a joint album together since the beginning of the year but they stopped talking about it so much because of their solo albums coming out and the fact that Watch the Throne was going to come out before theirs and didn’t want to seem like they were copying Jay and Ye. I think Baby is right, the album will be more youthful, the lyrical content will be more fun. However, Watch the Throne is a classic album and I love the lyrical content. I actually think both joint albums will do extremely well.
Well said.
Idk, I get the feeling that Watch The Throne will be more memorable and classic. And Baby, that wasn’t nice
shots fired, again.
The Collab album trend has now begun!
IF DRAKE IS 23, HE ISN’T AGING TOO WELL….HE LOOKS 31.
drake is 24 turning 25 in october.. way to not know someone on your own label baby. i just noticed that.
Let’s be real, WTT is not all that great of an album. It’s ok; the quality is mono-ish. I don’t really care for the album. Ye tried to be all political trying to send a message but the contradiction of every message he’s throwing out. Jay-Z; PSH that guy fell off so hard… he’s old and need to stop. 40 years old still rapping? It’s not call hate it’s called go get some respect for yourself. Kanye is a demon by the way. Can’t nobody tell me that, that man ain’t tampering with Voo-Doo or some type of demonic evil sh-t. By the way we will enjoy the Drake/Wayne collabo just because 1) They are young 2) Their music is more exciting 3) They don’t worship the devil (Not in reference to the Illuminati.) 4) They feed you a fantasy that you love. Kanye no one cares about Prince Williams or Mary Kate and Ashley…so stop raping about them. Kanye is extremely g@y too. I couldn’t see him being straight; he’s not the straight type; he’s a h0m0. Guaranteed!
I respect your opinion but I COMPLETELY Disagree. You have to be in your teens or extremely immature to reference that man’s sexuality. Which would result into why you have the opinion you do about the album. As one of my friends on Twitter said, most people who don’t like the album, don’t UNDERSTAND IT. People are so used to dumbed down bs, that when real music slaps them in the face they don’t know how to act. Audiences like you are what strive the Soulja Boys, Waka Flockas, and Lil’ B’s of the world. Do the world a favor and read some books. Expand your mind BEYOND the fantasy. That’s why everything’s so messed up in the world now; people don’t want to realize the life that they really live. WAKE THE HELL UP!
LOL, Hoodrats are funny!
Now I know why Soljah Boy somehow still has a career. Folks who only want someonething because its young, not because its good is a little dumb.
HATE is written all over this post and Im not even a Jay Z/Kanye fan. However, I dont think that Lil Wayne or Drake have the content to make such a statement that Watch The Throne has made…Jay Z and Kanye do an album it’s an event, history in the making so to speak. Drake and Wayne, itll be just another album talkin about that 24 hour champagne diet B.S. Ill have to pass on the Wayne and Drake Collabo
Lovers
Yeah he was throwing shade…and talking ish. Jay and Kanye are not on their way out. He’s hating.
PLEASE Baby u need to sit your old ass down, clearly Watch The Throne was made for a mature audience not “old” audience. Jay and Kanye no where near over, they just broke Itunes history. Jay is about to start working on a new album! HATER!
OK THE GAME,BABY (which in no Where around Baby lookin or age) Young money and ALLLLL of the rest of the Haters could Fall in a ditch and cremate themselves cause all of them motherfuckers are haters, they might be youthful but they don’t have half of what kanye and jay have. Drizzy n Wayne know deep down they wanna be a younger jay&ye. And that’s ok! BABY is a natural born hater. I remember he was inquiring how much money jay make? Like why do he care? He’s fan and don’t want to admit it. I can’t believe he had the audacity to say that jay and kanye are living the Game? I coulda died at that moment. That idiot shoulda been LONNNNNGG gone then because he’s older than both of them. All he does is stand around and clap his hands talking about “BRRR” Smh I’m done At the end of the day jay n kanye make more money than young money cash money Combined. They’re on the top of their game and Noooo one can stop Them. #Done
Teairra Marie finally got her SPONSOR!
“we more youthful”, what? Isn’t baby like 44, older than both Jay-Z and Kanye. He needs to be the one on his way out, the only way he sells music is if Drake or Wayne are on the track. Jay-Z and Kanye can put out a solo album any day and go platinum for sure, their careers are no way near over.
But I do think a Drake and Wayne album would be good, as long as Baby isn’t featured on it. He needs to stop running his mouth knowing he can’t back it up with that wack flow of his.
Hey there, You’ve performed an incredible job. I will certainly digg it and personally recommend to my friends. I am sure they will be benefited from this site.
