Method Man has explained why he rejected Drake‘s “Wu-Tang Forever” remix, admitting he didn’t like the song and was confused why it was named after his crew’s blockbuster second album.<\/p>\n
App<\/a>earing on Carmelo Anthony and Kazeem Famuyide’s 7PM In Brooklyn<\/em> podcast, Johnny Blaze revisited the proposed 2013 posse cut for which Drizzy unsuccessfully attempted to assemble the entire Wu-Tang Clan.<\/p>\n “I like Drake. I think he’s a dope artist, he puts out some great music obviously — otherwise he wouldn’t be as big as he is,” Meth began. “But when he sent the record, we were overseas. And you know, some brothers were trying to write to it.<\/p>\n “And I’m sitting there like, ‘I don’t like it.’ I was like, ‘What does this have to do with Wu-Tang Forever<\/em>?’ I’m not questioning his artistic ability or anything. I’m just saying, from my [perspective], it was more or less like, ‘I’m not getting on that.’”<\/p>\n<\/p>\n U-God previously shared his side of the story in a 2014 interview with MTV News<\/em><\/a>, revealing that a difference in subject matter is why the remix never happened.<\/p>\n “I guess we kinda came too hard for him. He wanted us to talk about broads but at the time we weren’t in no broad mode. We were hard-body at the time,” he said.<\/p>\n “I think later on I said to myself, ‘What the hell was I rhyming about?!’ I was rhyming some hardcore shit; he wanted us to talk about some bitches … We got the track last minute. We only had about six hours to write this thing … He was talking about something totally different so the subject matter didn’t really mesh.”<\/p>\n Inspectah Deck also addressed the situation with Vlad TV<\/em> <\/a> in 2015, arguing that Drake’s track did not “represent” the Wu-Tang Clan.<\/p>\n Deck claimed that “Wu-Tang Forever” did not directly sample Wu-Tang Clan’s “It’s Yourz” but instead sampled “It’s Yours” by T La Rock & Jazzy Jay, which provided the basis for Wu-Tang’s version.<\/p>\n “Having that sample in there didn’t make it, ‘Okay, it’s officially Wu-Tang’ to me,” he said. “It don’t represent what we were saying with ‘It’s Yourz’ so I didn’t understand how this was a dedication to Wu-Tang.”<\/p>\n<\/p>\n The post Method Man Admits He Didn’t Like Drake’s “Wu-Tang Forever”: “I [Wasn’t] Getting On That” appeared first on HipHopDX.<\/p>\n If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
