Drake’s “Nothing Was The Same” To Feature Jay Z On “Pound Cake” Outro

    Drake’s upcoming album, Nothing was the Same, scheduled for a September 17 release, will feature Jay Z and Lil Wayne. 

    News of Drake’s collaborators was reported by Rolling Stone today (August 16). In the article, Drake also talks about taking a new musical approach with his upcoming collection. 

    “This album is about growth,” Drake says in the Rolling Stone piece. “When I play it for people, they ask, ‘Who’s that rapping?’ I’m like, ‘That’s me.'”

    Drake’s Nothing was the Same will also include “Connect,” a song that has not been leaked yet.  

    “That one hits you in the heart,” Drake says. “It’s painful and beautiful at the same time.”

    TNGHT’s Hudson Mohawke, who recently worked with Kanye West on Yeezus, will also appear on the album. 

    Drake announced the release date for Nothing was the Same with a promotional clip for the project. In it, Drake celebrated a Grammy award with a drink.

      1. Most influential hip-hop artist(s) of all-time:

        1) Drake — he brought unprecedented levels of realness to hip-hop and saved it from dying.

        2) DJ Kool Herc — he invented it, pretty self-explanatory.

        3) The Native Tounges Movement — Responsible for tonnes of quality records; made the Black conscious vibe cool and influenced pretty much everyone.

        Honorable mentions: Jay-Z, DJ Premier, 2pac, Nas, Rakim

        Dr. Dre doesn’t make the cut because he’s the biggest fake of all-time. That’s why Drake has refused to work with him several times and instead shouted out Native Tounges artists like ATCQ on records. Drake knows real hip-hop. Dr. Dre has always had ghostwriters and aids producing records. While Dre has several notable records, he hasn’t produced as many records as Premo, Dilla, Madlib, RZA, Alchemist etc. He’s mad overrated and he is gay. Word is that he keeps the Tupac hologram in his basement and jerks off to it.

      2. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!!!!

        Funniest joke of the year.

    1. Ideal features… 21 tracks, with features from Lil Wayne (x2), Nicki Minaj, Ellie Goulding, Jay-Z, Kanye, Hudson Mohawke, PartyNextDoor, Future, Busta Rhymes, Big Sean, 2 Chainz, Tyga…

    2. Jay-Z will cut a lazy and boring verse about how rich he is while pausing after every line.

      Wayne will mumble a bunch of corny punchlines about pussy he think’s is clever because he does that stupid ass laugh. Then he’ll go back to drinking codeine

    3. Are these two guys really necessary on another album of his? That’s guaranteed at least one filler joint out of those two.

      1. upto I saw the bank draft which had said $5082, I did not believe that…my… mother in law woz like truly making money parttime from there new laptop.. there great aunt started doing this for only 19 months and just now paid the dept on their condo and got a gorgeous Audi Quattro. I went here, ——> WEP6(dot)COM

      1. he is very talented.. he is a human so he is allowed mistakes and contradictions. he doesnt sing that good but he writes very well with his r&b joints whether for himself or other artist.
        and dude can spit when he wants

        but he does not and i repeat DOES NOT have a classik (sic) album to his credit yet

      1. Cause i say like drakes music im a dickrider but if i said i like 2 pac’s music thats cool, im not considered a dickrider. ignorance.

    4. drake could drop the greatest verse of all time and retards would still say he sucks. not saying hes the best rapper talent whys, my point is people are ignorant as fuck and dont really listen to the music.

    5. ….”started from the bottom” was a garbage single (hated chorus, simple ass verses, no bueno at all)”hold on we going home” is decent…..for an r&b song……..hoping these 2 singles aren’t a reflection for the rest of the album…..I WANT TO HEAR BARS FROM HIM……

      FYI…….TAKE CARE IS STILL DOPE AS F***, FRONT TO BACK…..

    6. Can’t wait for this any longer come on wit it now!!!!! this is going to be the best album of the Fall definitely, and challenge for album of the year for sure!!

      1. You’re wrong, dentalbitch. Jay Z is not flopping and is always relevant. Drake is a huge Jay stan, he even admits it in song. Drake wants Hov.

      2. Trolls like you are not helping Drake or anybody else you support gain new fans by having to put down other artists to big up your favorites, first it shows hints of insecurity, second it makes people hate them even more, even if they are good.

      3. Dumbass. His last album went platinum before it was released and it currently sold 937k, Holy Grail reached the Top 5 and Tom Ford made it into the Top 40. Hov ain’t flopping at all. He doesn’t want Drake, Drake wants Jay Z.

    7. what Ruth answered I’m shocked that a student can profit $8518 in one month on the internet. more helpful hints… http://www.cafe44.com

      What you want him to say about his album. Yeah it’s ok …… of course he’s going to say it’s the best. And he is good so i expect a good album. Everybody looking for a classic. Me i don’t care just make an album ppl can listen too!

    8. my Aunty Brooke just got a nice six-month old Cadillac SRX by parttime working online from home. moved here….

    9. The king of rap had to put jay z on a song cus that overrated irrelevent camel was begging drake so he can try to be cool again by being on a masterpeice album. Drake gave jay z the outro so people wont have to listen to a full song with that camel. Drake is gonna go platinum first week and be the king of rap. DRAKE IS THE FACE OF RAP DRAKE RUNS RAP PERIOD

    10. drakes an easy target but he stays one of dopest, freshest, and orginal new mainstream rapper. in my opioion he is the new Nas and J cole is the new Jay-z of this generation.

    11. Drake showed me this letter from Jay Z

      Yo Drake:
      Man I need your help. I need to be relevant again. Before you point out to HGMC sales, the samsung ceo was a huge stan and wanted a million copies. Unfortuantely, Beyonce took my earned money. As for the additional copies, me and beyonce bought 400k of them. In reality, it’s my biggest bomb. I want to be on your album and I’ll pay 10 million for it.

      Thank you
      Jay Z

      P.S. Timberlake is also desperate to be relevant again.

      1. I got this letter from drake. I was sorting out finances for ymcmb when drake walked in and showed me this letter.
