50 Cent Is Mesmerized By Drake Saying He Influenced Him To Start Singing

50 Cent : “The Coolest Sh*t In The World”

Drake recently noted that Kanye’s ‘808s & Heartbreaks’ album was a source of inspiration for him to start singing. And another source of motivation for him to pursue singing was 50 Cent.

“’21 Questions’ will probably be my most inspiring example of a guy who’s not supposed to be singing, singing,” Drake said about Fif’s 2003 hit with Nate Dogg.

While 50 Cent was receiving his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, he told Variety that he was overjoyed to hear what Drake had said about him.

“Drake was saying recently that I had influenced him to start singing, which was the coolest sh*t in the world for him to say, because I can’t sing as good as he sings,” he confessed.

“I was always just trying to outline the melody. Because once you have a broad enough audience, you’re gonna have people who don’t speak English, so all they can follow is the melody.”

“And when you’re writing [lyrics], I mean: ‘Go shorty, it’s your birthday’ that’s not rocket science. Every day is somebody’s birthday,” he added.
