Don’t know the origins of this one, but a track with the same title apparently got upgraded with a new beat and a different line-up. Let the guns organs blow.

Wiz Khalifa Declines Tour With Drake

Friday, August 20 2010 4:25 PM EST | Posted by: Big Homie | Posted in: Blog, Newsstand Stan

During Drake’s Ustream session last night, he invited Wiz Khalifa to come onboard his Lightdreams & Nightmares tour. Although Wiz is flattered by the gesture, he respectfully declined the offer since he’s set to embark on his Waken Baken tour.

“Just the fact of cuz even extending his hand and me being on his radar is tight, to me. It just lets me know that I’m doin’ what I need to be doin’ as far as stayin’ relevant and stayin’ poppin’. But I think to keep me poppin and keep me relevant I gotta stay buildin’ on top of what I’m doin’ and what I been doin’. No disrespect to cuz or anybody else who might wanna see me do some more collaborative things, but to keep buildin’ and keep my brand as strong as what it is, I gotta keep focusin’ on what it is. This is my first tour that I got comin’ up, the Waken Baken tour, I gotta at least kick that off and make that it what it is so we can do ten more. We can do like some special dates or some surprise guest type thing, but I need 10 mil too Drake.”
