Yesterday, it was revealed that Drake and Lil Wayne have decided to shelve their much talked about joint LP. Now Drake tells XXL the exact reason behind the decision — impending comparisons to the highly successful collaborative effort from Jay-Z and Kanye West.
“Me and Wayne scrapped the idea of a collaboration album. We just agreed that it would be looked upon as…It would be sort of this competition [with Watch The Throne]. I feel like it would get caught in this whirlwind of hype. [Wayne] agreed. We just said, ‘If we do it, we’ll do it down the line. But right now is not the time.’”
Wise decision? We think so.
