Kanye is known for keeping his finger on the pulse of the moment to create something greater. After “H.A.M.” he moved on—there were no other flourishes of Waka-ness on The Throne album. But Rick Ross delved deeper into the sound, co-opting it as his own. “That’s crazy,” says Waka. “But what you gonna say? This nigga out here making 30 fu-king sounds with your sound. He watering it down, just putting words together that sounded good. sh-t would be harder if it was the truth.”
If you think Waka might be supremely pissed about the imitators, you’re right. He is. “That sh-t made me tight,” he says. “Niggas built labels off our sound—like, literally. You know how many niggas sound like Lex Luger and Southside? I go in niggas’ studios, all their beats sound like my producers. I be like, What the fu-k?” But above all he tries to maintain perspective: “You can’t be mad at something you can’t control.”
