Drake Interview w/ Complex
Drake speaks to Complex on a number of subjects ranging from his musical upbringing, to some of his influences, to the theme and plot line of So Far Gone, which makes a lot of sense actually. He also speaks on how he met Lil Wayne, the naming of his latest project, speaks on the XXL Freshmen 10, the comparisons to 808′s along with his own major label debut. He also sorta denies ghostwriting for Wayne but… nevermind. Also speaks a bit on his lifestyle, whether it’s clothing, champagne, Blackberry or maintaining a balanced daily diet of Nah Right.
Complex: Listening to your earlier mixtapes, as well as So Far Gone, a constant theme seems to be the notion that “All That Glitters Ain’t Gold.” It seems like you try to be honest and downplay the rapper lifestyle, like when you talk about buying a Phantom but regretting it.
Drake: Yeah, well, to be even more honest, I leased a Phantom instead of buying one, ’cause I didn‘t have enough money to buy a Phantom, I leased a Phantom because that’s what I thought I needed to do. And I’ve done a lot of things to just enjoy my nights a little more and to feed my ego. And that’s kinda why I rap about it, because a lot of people are like, “If he ever steps out of line, I’m gonna say Drake’s wack.” So the only choice I have is to be honest with my listeners. And that’s not to say it’s not a glamorous life and it’s not fun, but the reality is it’s great for the average person to hear a musician’s reality because we all seem so unattainable and so out of reach that when you bring yourself back to eye level with a fan and do it in the right way…
Complex: What’s the right way?
Drake: You don’t make stupid internet videos or show people you have too much free time, you just say the right things and they’ll be like, Damn this dude’s a real person and I can relate to that. That can make somebody’s life, that can make somebody’s day, that can be a line that they never forget. So I try to have as many of those lines as possible so that fans feel like Drake isn’t only one of my favorite artists, I feel like he’s one of my friends, he talks to me. That’s one of the benefits of being honest with your music. But some people are scared to do that, too, you know. Because some of their images are built off facade and that’s OK, as long as you can keep it up. But we’ve all seen what happens when you slip up, and that’s a stressful life, I don’t want to live like that. Letting people find out shit about, printing out my documents and putting them up on Thisis50.com.
Always said I’d say it all on the right track
But in this game you only lose when you fight back

Chimp Was Unusually Close to Owner
Travis the chimpanzee’s relationship with his owner was closer than those of some married couples.
Sandra Herold gave him the finest food, and wine in long-stemmed glasses. They took baths together and cuddled in the bed they shared. Travis brushed the lonely widow’s hair each night and pined for her when she was away.

Those cats from TMZ are fuckin brilliant at sensationalism, I bet there are pics with her eyes open but they probably selceted the closed eye pic to subconsciously plant the seed that she was near death.
I’m from the hood, I’ve seen people get beat up, Ive seen people scuffle with their girls, not necesarily hitting her but maybe choking, putting her in a headlock etc, these often results in cuts, scrapes, which is what she has now.
No black eye, no split lip with blood oozing, none of her injuries to me says she was hit, I don’t dispute that she was overly roughed up or even abused, but the sensationalism over this whole story is bullshit, especially when both of em gonna make yall look like fools in 3 yrs when they get married, TMZ will be the first reporting “how happy the couple looked”

Yeah my guess is he was driving, they were arguing, she popped him in the face and he just pulled over and smothered her with a headlock and mighta accidentally pushed her over once they got out the car. I mean, when my broad loses it she’s liable to do anything. She probably got way out of pocket and he was just trying to contain her. In the process she got a little rugburn to the grill.

February 19th, 2009 at 11:17 pm
i think So Far Gone was cool and he said it, he had to get the singy shit outta the way cause he was signed to a rap deal. but he’s definitely multi-talented/musically inclined like Wayne told Semtex

February 19th, 2009 at 11:18 pm
Can I clarify the stuff I was saying earlier? I realize this is a hip-hop blog more concerned with ayos and things than criticism of music, but:
Drake speaks words in rhythm to music in a flat tone that’s recognized as “rapping.” This makes him a “rapper.”
If he does other things too, so be it, but he fits the biggest criterion for being a rapper. Whether he’s a good one or not is another question.
February 19th, 2009 at 11:18 pm

i don’t think drake’s taking shots.. it’s just a lot of rappers put their boring lives on blast and make stupid videos showing their money chains cars and what not.. i understand if it’s for mtv cribs or something, but look on worldstarhiphop and there’s tons of bammas just making videos because they have cameras. and if joey has something to say, it’s probably cause he feels the shoe fits him and that’s automatic fail on his part.. great interview though

Official, Starter hit harder than Fort Green
No authentic, Nike, Adidas and Spalding
Permitted behind the back like makin em all fiend
For my intricate ways to break ya whole team
My style, make the whole crowd Se-au
Like number 55 on the Chargers
I promise thee I Dodge a nigga like Raul Mondesi
Somberly stay calm, fighting Means like Natrone
The bomb, like Hail Mary’s inflated wit napalm
RAP PLEASE US! Deliver scriptures similar to Jesus
That you couldn’t catch if you was Ivan Rodriguez
So don’t compete within the zone where the ? is

Dispense to standing in count commence to rebound like Buck Williams
Triple Crown threat to score, plus the bonus strange
Without the Rover, more range than Rey Ordonez
One of the MC’s flip my kind of grammar on the break
Three on one like Phi Slamma Jamma
Serve a slot, a curve-splitter-knuckleball-spitter-change
Every rhyme hid a bitter note, quote Get a game
Not Allen Iverson, forget crossin-over shake men
Similar to Troy, I bring the pain destined to Aik-man
Break men off, take men out, make me wanna slander
Prime Time, my rhyme defense beyond Deion Sanders
I walk the earth with my Rod in this Strick-land
Promise, people thought I was Thomas Hearns the way I Hit Man
For my intricate way ta-ta-ta-ta yo yo
Official like Starter, hit harder than Fort Green
Authentic, Nike, Adidas and Spalding
The minute behind the back like makin em all fiend
For my intricate way ta-ta-ta-ta
Yo, I stick around like hockey, now what the puck

that Q-tip mixtape is easily the best of the year so far, but its not really fair to the rest cuz 90% of it is classic material from way back.

Yeah but when De La reworks his lyrics AND you hear ALL the beats he’s had a hand in(Mobb Deep, Apache and shit) and his humilty. Man, That’s one of the my top 5 mixtapes of all time.
February 19th, 2009 at 11:43 pm
Nah, Son!!! NaH!!!! The y got catz runnin’ ’round, with shiney shoes and britches so tight they got zippers on the side and shit, If you got on high tops that hi and you ain’t ballin, they go-go boots. And what’s that got to do with hip-hop anyway? ….(c) grouchy old man on porch who keeps your football when it lands in his yard. LOL

You really think so? He’s a little shaky @ point that the autotune would usually correct. I’m being nitpicky cause I do think he can sing, but he has to tighten his shit up if he were to just be an R&B artist.

no doubt Party. that mixtape will get spun for a while easily.
February 19th, 2009 at 11:45 pm
why do i feel so alone
like everybody passin thru the studio
is in character
as if we actin out a movie role
talkin bullshit as if it was for u to know
and i dont have the heart to get these
bitch ass niggas the cue to go
so they stick around kickin out feedback
and i entertainin as if i need that
i had a talk with my uncle and he agreed
that
my privacy about the only thing i need
back
but… its hard to think of them polite
flows
mista fano poloto suits on yo night
clothes
and jordan sweat suits are yo flight
clothes
and you still make it even when they
say yo flight closed
eyes hurtin ‘front of da camara fallin
light shows
life was so full now dis shits just been
light pole
always said id say it all on the right
track
but in this game u only lose when u
fight back
black diamond bracelets

i cant live n hold da camara
some one gotta take dis
i make beats juss like a bitch
just married i aint miss
24 hours from greatness
im dat close to yo

you began to doubt
transitionin from fittin in to standin
out
los angeles cobanas or atlanta south
watchin home shows
embarased to pull my camara out
and my mother embarased to put
my phantom out
so i park about 5 houses down
she said i shouldnt have till i have
the crown
but i dun wanna feel the need to wear
disguises around
so she wonder where my mind is
and counts in the minus
but yet im rollin round the fuckin city
like yo highness
got niggas reactin without a sinous
coz wha im workin wid is timeless
and promoters tryin to get me out to
dey club
and say i have fun but i cant imagine
how
coz i juss see my ex gurl standin wid
my next gurl standin wid da gurl dat
im fuckin right now
n shit could get weird unless dey all
down
n so i stay clear
we from a small town
when everybody talks
n everybody listen
n somehow the truth juss always comes
up missin
ive always been sumttin dat these lables
cant buy
specially if dey tryin to take a peice
of my soul
n still b only tellin tales “damn drake
fly”
n he just be like “silly mother fucker
i know”
dat was yo bad
how cud u pass up on em
he juss take the records n he
gass up on em
weighin em will prolly put a million
cash up on em
suprised no one ever put yo ass
up on em
oh they did pole at least they try to
n das wha happens when u spittin
whas inside u
but slip up n shoot the wrong fuckin
video n they think they can market
u however they decide to
naww
before they told me to do me
n dun listen to any body that knew me
coz who woulda known me would
mean that theres a new me
n if u think ive changed in the slightest
coulda fooled me
baa into my city im da 2-3
drug dealers live vicariously thru
me
i quit school n is not because im lazy
im juss not the social type and campus
life is crazy
understand i cud get money wid my
eyes closed

Pissed on the motherfucking White House lawn
I threw a rock, then I ran
Cause I couldn’t stand anymore within the grip of the man
Y’all wanna ask me who’s sane
These biological gasses are eating my brain
Its a political grab bag to rape mother earth
Thirty seconds after they bagged dad for what he’s worth
Thousands will die now so millions can smile later
This ain’t the +Rockford Files+ nigga
They stockpile data for satellites
Where you discuss who’s style is greater
In this killing pool you playing it cool like Kyle Jada
When ya’ll ready to rock like Led Zep and Al Qaeda
With weapons of mass destruction an hour later
What’s your identidy today?
You on some John F. Kennedy or Timothy McVeigh?
This Henessy done left me with a remedy to spray
For my identity your life is the penalty to pay
Motherfucker
[Monch] {Crowd
[Y'all ready to rock?]
{We ready to rock
[Y'all ready to roll?]
{We ready to roll
[Hook 2]
My life is all I have to give
Please lord forgive me for my sins
My life is all I have to give
Damn you that lost the will to live
Trapped in the game
Just tryin to win (3x)
[Verse 2]
Its not a Vietnam song
I know women from desert storm who came back deformed
Missin limbs and disease and they legs is numb
Chemicals twice as strong as agent orange
Its messages in the bass drum
War goin off in your mind
No man is safe from
Its not a Game Boy about the PlayStation
Its +Resident Evil+ when every President’s a mason
Robbin y’all fools like ?
And y’all inherited roots and don’t know how to retrace them
Place them back
Face them facts
Disgraceful, faceless, tasteless acts
Pharoahe takes teh authorities to court
Peep crime before it happens like +Minority Report+
And I will never be mentally defenseless
Cats be on the block, in the hood in the trenches sayin

Three Drunk Women had a very late night drinking. They left in the early morning hours and went home their separate ways. The next day, they all met and compared notes about who was drunker the night before.
The first girl claimed that she was the drunkest, saying, “I drove straight home and walked into the house. As soon as I got through the door I blew chunks for 10 minutes.”
The second said, “You think that was drunk? Hell I got into my car and wrapped my car around the first tree I saw. I don’t even have insurance!”
The third proclaimed, “Damn, I was the drunkest by far. When I got home, I got into a big fight with my husband, knocked a candle over, and burned the whole house down!”
The room was silent for a moment. Then, the first girl spoke out again, ” Listen girls, I don’t think you understand… Chunks is my dog.”

You still pop shit? I face off like fembots
And I’m the six million motherfuckin dollar man
with a six million muh’fuckin dollar plan
For thug niggaz and pimp players and drug niggaz
Your technique, I sweep under the rug niggaz
Out of Queens, shit I serve with the fiends and bug niggaz
I’m above niggaz, but all in all, I love niggaz
like my man Benny Rat (uh) showed me the rap game
Told me never to act sane on a record or rap plain
Now the name reign supreme, seen major creme
Rhymes, sicker than lyme disease and gangrene

Get ate like Mickey D’s after the hydro when you push me
Get ate like cannibalism and sliced surgical
In any extremity y’all get infinity vertical
Every line to word of mine will be verbally placed to murder you
The master, flippin convertible flows irreversible
Unobtainable to the brain it’s unexplainable what the verse’ll do
Pharoahe’s the sperm your mind’s the eggs I’m burstin through
Y’all heard of me, I pack macs and crack vertebraes
Leave niggaz with third degree burns and back surgery
Mics guns knives, pick declare which object, flip
Have niggaz runnin like the Blair Witch Project
