Title: A Million Dollars

Album:Finally Famous

Label: G.O.O.D MUSIC

A couple of weeks ago, there were some pictures floating around of you, Kanye, and Drake in the studio. What came out of that?

Yeah, it’s about to be my first single. We’re about to release that on the radio. Me, Drake and Kanye. It’s called “Made.” It’s just a nice song. It’s an anthem type song. It’s not like a “Million Dollars”–type song. It’s more so of a “Can’t Tell Me Nothing”–type of song. Its gonna do well, I think. We’re gonna just start it off on the radio.

How do you get your hands on the best Kanye beats? Have you heard beats and you’ve wanted them and they’re not necessarily for you? Or have you ever heard something and been like, “Yo, Kanye I need that beat,” over him giving it to another artist?

Hell, yeah, man. It happens all the time. It’s like, you know, he doesn’t make enough beats for everybody, so you gotta fight over them, but there’s definitely been tracks I’ve heard and I’m like, “Dog, I really want this beat.” He’s been like, “Aw, man, this is for Jay, or I’m giving Ludacris that, or this is already a song for whoever.” That’s happened before, but he gives everybody what they need.

What’s your relationship like with the other G.O.O.D Music artists, like Kid Cudi and Mr. Hudson?

My relationships with G.O.O.D. Music is different with everybody. Me and GLC are real tight. Me and Really Doe are homies. Me and Common are good people. I don’t see Consequence that much, but me and him are real cool, and he shows me a lot of respect and I got a lot of respect for him. Me and Mr. Hudson definitely have a good relationship; we’ve collaborated in the studio and stuff. Me and Cudi prolly have, our relationship is like, I don’t really see him that much really. We don’t really talk that much. You know I kind of, like, see him around at, like, G.O.O.D Music shows and stuff. Usually he’s out doing his own thing, I’m out doing my own thing. Our relationship it is what it is. It’s no beef or nothing at all. Me and him just never really collaborated on anything. I don’t know why. It’s something that needs to happen.
