Baby saw the early potential in Drizzy
Birdman has proved to possess a sharp eye for rap talents, and he knew the exact levels Drake would reach when he was first introduced to him by Lil Wayne.
“Wayne brought the music to me. Wayne asked me what I thought about it. I’m like, ‘I think that n-gga dope, man. That n-gga bad,’” Baby said of hearing Drizzy’s music for the first time during a recent conversation on JalenTV. “We ain’t never heard no shit like that. That n-gga had them long words and added that singing flow. We ain’t never heard no shit like that in Hip Hop.”
He continued, “First time I met him I told him he gonna be a legend. He was like ‘For real?’ I’m like ‘Yeah, Drake. You gonna be a fucking legend in this game.’ Cuz the Hip Hop ain’t heard nothing like that.”
