Kanye West not only came for Big Sean during his appearance on Drink Champs, but the Donda rapper also slighted Just Blaze, among others.
When N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN asked Ye whether he saw Swizz Beatz or Just Blaze as his superior, the rapper said, “Well, Swizz Beatz, definitely, because Just Blaze is a copycat, you know.”
Ye then compared his career to Blaze’s, saying, “He get credit for The Blueprint, and I did the first half of The Blueprint, and he just copied my half. I mean look—look where I’m at today and look where he at today. So that should show you...”
He continued, “I like the originators man. I don’t mind, like, you know, the copycats too, and—by the way—you just gotta say it like it is. … But I love you, but just know what it is.”
