Big Sean Plays Drake vs Lil Wayne, Recalls Wayne Jumping On Beware + More

At the end of 2021, Big Sean sat down with N.O.R.E. aka Noreaga and DJ EFN for an interview on their “Drink Champs” podcast to discuss his career, life, Detroit, and much more.

From the 14:50 mark, Sean talked about growing up loving the mixtape era and recalled riding to school listening to Lil Wayne‘s Dedication 1 and Dedication 2 tapes.

Later on in their conversation at 1:02:15, N.O.R.E. asked Sean to pick from “Drake or Wayne” to which the Detroit rapper named Wayne solely for the reason if there was no Weezy, there would be no Drizzy.

Big Sean also talked about where he was at in life when he made his “Beware” single featuring Tunechi and Jhene Aiko at the 1:38:30 point of their convo. He remembers Tune hearing just 6 seconds of the song when he decided that this was going to be the record he jumps on!

Lil Wayne & Eminem Talk Googling Their Own Lyrics To Make Sure They Don't Repeat Them + More

Last night, episode 3 of Lil Wayne‘s “Young Money Radio” show aired live on Apple Music and one of the special guests was none other than Eminem, who Wayne introduced as one of his “fellow G.O.A.T.s” and “favorite people”.

During their conversation, Weezy chatted to Em about what he is currently doing in quarantine, “The Last Dance” documentary miniseries, what new artists he is listening to, if Ken Kaniff is still alive (lol), what inspiration he has for music nowadays, and how he is giving back to Detroit health care workers by distributing “Mom’s Spaghetti”.

Tunechi and Slim Shady revealed that they both have to Google their own lyrics to make sure they haven’t said them in the past, as well as how they try to please both their core fanbase and their new generation fans. The Detroit rapper also praised Tune for his last couple of albums and his storytelling on “Mona Lisa” by saying it has “to be one of the top 5 verses of all time”.

You can check out Mr. Carter and Eminem‘s conversation on “Young Money Radio” after the jump below! As a big fan of both of these rappers, it was great to see how well the two of them got on. I just wish they talked about or mentioned a new collaboration!

Jordan was the first person to ever film Weezy when he first started skating in 2011 and so it’s good to see how much he has improved in this new footage.
