When he came into the Vice office in Toronto, we asked about how Drake and the OVO camp found out about his song, but unfortunately he said that he’s not allowed to say anything about it. What we did manage to find out is that he deleted the original video and re-uploaded it in May of this year, but when asked why he did that, he took a long pause before answering a different question altogether. Reading between the lines, it would appear that someone stumbled onto the early version of the video and asked him to take it down until the timing was better suited.
So with the strict condition that we were not allowed to ask him anything about Drake, OVO, or being discovered by Drake and OVO, we spoke to the 21-year-old about what he was allowed to tell us.
