"i never cried when Pac died but i probably will when Hov does".. OMG at how much sense this line makes. Hov is clearly Drake's idol and role model. it goes from the self indulgence and egoism, those "this is where i'm at in my life" type songs where he just goes off bragging about how successful he's become, down to putting his own face on every album cover..
Hov was featured on two out of Drake's three albums; on Thank Me Later he was sort of mentoring Drake - "listen Drake this is how they gonna come at you/ with silly rap feuds/ trying to distract you", and there's a reason why he was the only rapping feature on NWTS, not even Wayne was featured on that album.
on Take Care, the one and only album which Hov didn't take part in, Drake grabbed Just Blaze and Rick Ro$$ to make "Lord Knows" - basically a Jay-Z song. this wasn't a coincidence.
i'm sure Drake wanted to have a public, long-lasting relationship with Rihanna so badly so he could really be like Hov too.
