On recently released with visuals “When To Say When & Chicago Freestyle” tracks Drake turned to Eminem as an inspiration.
Drake mentioned during his December interview with Rap Radar that he wanted to show that he still can rap, so it is only natural that he stepped on the shoulder of a giant to stand out. On “Chicago Freestyle” he used the chorus from Eminem’s platinum “Superman” released in 2002 on “The Eminem Show”.
Here are the original lyrics:
But I do know one thing though
Bitches, they come, they go
Saturday through Sunday, Monday
Monday through Sunday, yo
Maybe I’ll love you one day
Maybe we’ll someday grow
‘Til then just sit your drunk ass on that fuckin’ runway, ho
Drake cleaned it up to rap as follows:
But I do know one thing though
Women they come they go
Saturday, through Sunday, Monday
Monday through Sunday, yo
Maybe I’ll love you one day
Maybe we’ll someday grow
Till then I sit my drunk ass on that runway, on this one way.
