While in College, Jas Prince stumbled across Drake‘s music on MySpace and was immediately impressed, to the point he introduced him to Lil Wayne.
Jas Prince recalls Lil Wayne’s initial thoughts on Young Money’s biggest asset to date in the upcoming film Drake’s Homecoming: The Lost Footage.
“Wayne told me he sucked,” Jas Prince said of Lil Wayne’s thoughts on Drake. “He was like, ‘Jas, don’t play me that shit no more. He’s not good.’”
But Jas Prince was consistent, and managed to find the perfect moment to play Lil Wayne some of Drake’s songs like “Replacement Girl” and “Brand New.” Lil Wayne liked those songs and after hearing them Wayne got Drake on a flight to Houston and the rest was history.
