Drake Explains He Fixed His Relationship With Nicki Minaj

Drake is doing the usual promo run after releasing his album earlier today and made a stop to talk to LA's very own, Big Boy.

The "Hold On" singer was asked about his line in the first song, "Tuscan Leather" where he states that his relationship with Nicki Minaj isn't the same anymore.

"I gotta stay with the family / Not even talkin' to Nicki / Communication is breakin' / I dropped the ball on some personal s***, I need to embrace it / I'm honest. I make mistakes. I'd be the second to admit it / Think that's why I need her in my life, to check me when I'm trippin'."

Asked about the line, Drake explained that "the album is a journey, so the first song is not where I'm at in my life right now,"

"I started this album a year and a half ago, and it did kind of go in chronological order, for the most part. That song kind of picks up at an earlier point in my life. I had done something that I had to just reevaluate and fix. We're good. We definitely talk. I saw her the other night. It was all love."

The rapper also explains that he "choose to express personal things in my music and I don't ever do it with malice." Note that this isn't the only line people are curious about asthe girl he mentions in "From Time" was recently uncovered.
