“I think he’s going to make his fans really happy,” Sean Garrett says about one of the most anticipated albums of the year. Thesinger-songwriter is of course speaking about Drake’s debut Thank MeLater.
Garrett reveals to Rap-Up.com that he has been in the studio with hip-hop’s breakout star. “I’m working on some stuff for his album,” heshares. “I heard some shit and it’s hot as fuck.”
With such great expectations for the spring release, how did “The Pen” approach the project? “When you’re dealing with somebody like him,you wanna come hard, you wanna come so ridiculous, you wanna come in adirection that no one, including him, had any idea that you would come,”he explains. “It makes it really difficult. There’s only so far youcan go with your résumé sometimes. It’s all about what you did today,so you’re always trying to outdo yourself.”
S. Dot is making sure the “Best I Ever Had” MC only gets his best. “At this point it’s just about coming up with that masterful record thatI will probably keep for myself but I’mma give it to him. It’s gottabe hot enough for me to say, ‘Damn, should I give this away?’”
Drizzy knows when to have fun, but when he’s in the lab, he’s all about his business. “He tends to like to have fun. He’s enjoying themoment. When he’s out, he’s always smiling and happy, and real giddyabout meeting the fans—just being a real people’s person. But when he’sin the studio, he seems to be very, very focused on what it is he’strying to accomplish.”
The first collaboration between the two will be an upcoming single from Garrett’s U.S. debut. “It’s a mid-tempo and it’s about love,” hesays of the track. “We both like to talk about love in our ownparticular way, and that’s the reason why I felt like he was perfect forthat record. I think a lot of ladies are gonna love this record.”
