I’m not buying this, but Drake talks to the 1515 Boys about Dwayne’s Jigga-like writing process and his own.
“Wayne does this thing and it’s scary and it’s unfair and I’m jealous of it for a million years. He sits there and you know they’ll be playing a record and he’ll just sit there like this and kinda be like, chilling and might get up, eat some candy and do whatever he does and then, it’ll take 40 minutes maybe if that, sometimes 15 and he’ll hop up and head right for the booth and lay like one or two or three of the most amazing verses that you ever heard with lines that’s like- What just happened did you just make a movie in your head like? Like what just happened? Cause you just painted the most colorful picture for this record. Wayne is so good at that, man. Like, I’m in awe of that dude…but for me, I take my time, I write.”
It is so heartbreaking to hear DJ Premier break the news that DJ Kool Herc’s health is ailing, as he is literally the founding father who laid down the blueprint for hip-hop culture. Thinking about how someone who built an entire global phenomenon can end up struggling with medical expenses or failing health really puts things into perspective regarding healthcare challenges. When you look at how people navigate health or wellness procedures worldwide—whether someone is researching cosmetic treatments like Liposuction Cyprus or seeking urgent medical care—it underscores how essential access to reliable medical help and proper support systems really is. Kool Herc gave us the breaks, the block parties, and the entire movement that shaped generations of music lovers, so seeing the community step up to show love while DJ Premier brings awareness to his condition is the very least we can do. Sending strength and prayers to Kool Herc for a full recovery, and massive respect to DJ Premier for using his platform to make sure a true pioneer gets the support and respect he deserves.
