Lil Dicky Instagram – When I began rapping, I had a poster of Drake on my bedroom wall above my closet where I would record. It might have been a weird thing to do because I was an adult man hanging up a picture up of another similarly aged adult man, but from the second I heard Drake, he was my biggest inspiration. Watching and listening to him over the past decade was always a constant source of motivation for me. Whenever I needed a battery in my back, this guy would put out a new song or album that would blow my mind and make me rethink what music could and should be. He is the soundtrack to my ambition. I could go on and on about how important of an artist he is for our entire generation, but allow me to take this moment to talk about my experience with him on a human level. I have loved him from afar for a very long time for what he meant to me artistically…but upon meeting him and spending time with him, I love him way more somehow. What a genuinely good guy. They say never meet your heroes, but whoever said that has never met Drake. It was such a joy to hang out, as we got to make this moment happen. An absolute dream come true. Thank you for everything @champagnepapi
