The rapper shared the spotlight and built rapport with several rappers at the earlier stages of their careers. He gave verses to Future, Wizkid, Migos, iLoveMakonnen, and, more recently, Mississauga crooner Ramriddlz. When asked about it, he simply shared an anecdote:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI\u2019d bring home an essay that I did really well on, and my mom would read through it and give me notes back \u2014 on the essay that I just scored a 94 on! So sometimes I just do that. I\u2019ll hear people\u2019s stuff and \u2026 I\u2019ll just give my interpretation of how I would have done it. It\u2019s just, literally, I\u2019ve recognized the potential and the greatness in this piece, and I want to take my stab at it too.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10000\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10000\" style=\"width: 700px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-10000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.afrizap.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/09\/f0927cffae459a9081f04ac542ae38c4.jpg\" alt=\"source\" width=\"700\" height=\"554\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.afrizap.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/09\/f0927cffae459a9081f04ac542ae38c4.jpg 594w, https:\/\/www.afrizap.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/09\/f0927cffae459a9081f04ac542ae38c4-85x67.jpg 85w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10000\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/575334921125500763\/\" target=\"_blank\">source<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.afrizap.com\/en\/wizkid-drake\">SEE ALSO:\u00a0Drake Finally Reveals Why He Collaborated With Wizkid.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<!--CusAds0-->\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2015 has been quite an exciting year for Drake.
