21 Things We Learned from Big Sean, Drake & Kanye's New Song, "Blessings"
FUSE TV - 21 Things We Learned from Big Sean, Drake & Kanye's New Song, "Blessings"
Big Sean got things cracking in 2014 with his 4 Song EP/mixtape featuring "I Don't F*ck with You" and "Paradise." But today he's going way bigger, with "Blessings," a brand new song with Drake and Kanye West, one set to be featured on Dark Sky Paradise, Big Sean's third album, due February 24. It's produced by Boi-1da and Vinylz.
"Blessings" is momentous for a few reasons. No. 1: Drake and Kanye West, rap's top two dudes, haven't appeared on a song together since 2009's "Forever," the megawatt kings summit cut Drake assembled alongside Lil Wayne, Eminem, and 'Ye. Ever since, Drizzy and Yeezy have alternately supported each other (Kanye making appearances at Drake's annual OVO Festival in Toronto; Drake being totally open about Kanye's massive influence on him) and antagonistic (Drake making fun of Kanye's Yeezus lyrics in Rolling Stone; Kanye admitting in GQ that Drake became rap's boss recently, but then mulling, emperor-like, not if but when he'll snatch the rap game back for himself). Drake and Kanye coming together on a song by their mutual pal Big Sean feels like a reconciliation, or a wink, or a mutual big-up.
Reason No. 2: While Kanye has been Big Sean's mentor and benefactor since the jump, he hasn't stepped into a Big Sean song in four years. 'Ye dropped a verse on 2011's "Marvin & Chardonnay," the single from Sean's debut album, Finally Famous, and that was basically it. Kanye also never lent his masterful producer skills to a Big Sean song until last fall's "I Don't F*ck With You," which was a Kanye/DJ Mustard team-up.
