How did Drake end up on \u201cVersace\u201d?
<\/strong>Drake ran into them at the Birthday Bash [Atlanta radio concert], which is a you know New York has a Summer Jam.  And I think 2 Chainz was bringing them out that day, if I\u2019m not mistaken. But we had just put out Y.R.N.,<\/em> which was the first mixtape that was put out when we signed the guys.  We dropped it on that Tuesday, Birthday Bash was that Saturday, and Drake walks right up to me, \u201cHey, Coach, is this your group? Man, I\u2019ve been listening for the last four days!\u201d And he quoted a lyric off of one of the songs. And then like, a week later, he reached out and was like, man, I want to jump on one of those records. And we wasn\u2019t even thinking about him jumping on \u201cVersace,\u201d but  he sent the verse back on that song.<\/p>\n

When Drake jumped on and adopted that triplet flow, that was a big moment.
<\/strong>It was such a big moment. I mean, at that moment,  that rap pattern, that cadence changed hip-hop<\/a>, because Drake being the big artist that is \u2014 shit, he\u2019s the biggest, right? With him coming in and adopting that flow, I watched the whole rap culture take that cadence. I\u2019m not even gonna lie \u2014 me and Pee, we was getting a little angry. Because  a lot of artists that was on bigger levels was getting all the praise. But this was these boys\u2019 shit, you know what I\u2019m saying? So we had to swim through that shit.<\/p>\n
