Drake Responds To Rod Wave's Reasoning For Turning Down Collaboration

Rod Wave was supposed to be on “Lemon Pepper Freestyle” off Drake's 2021 Scary Hours 2 EP but he turned it down. So, what happened?

“I wanted the sh*t to be perfect because it’s Drake,” Wave told Complex's 360 with Speedy Mormon. “At that moment, I was still in shock. I was still adjusting to this sh*t, adjusting to like, ‘Ok, this is me. This is my life. I’m a rapper now' ... It took me like a week to even record it. I was listening to it and I was like, ‘I don’t know what to do on this motherf*cker.'”

Drake responded to the Florida native after seeing his interview on Instagram.

“@rodwave this is an act of true respect I could never be upset this is some real artistry and holding yourself to a standard where you don’t bend for anybody just cause they are somebody much love for ya brada," wrote Drizzy in the comments.

So, he obviously doesn't have any hard feelings about Wave not being on “Lemon Pepper Freestyle” and it's all love.
