Drake responded,

“Listen, I’m gonna tell you one thing about me and this guy right here. When I think of all my earliest memories when we were doing this shit… this is just for anybody… that has a dream, that has a vision. When I think of all my earliest memories there was always one guy that was always right there doing the same thing as me. Taking care of his people, showin’ love, and it’s this man right here. He hasn’t changed since the first day I met him.”
