G.O.O.D. Music artist Big Sean recently touched on his future aspirations as a rapper, saying that since he's been around major players in the game, he feels he has to surpass them at some point.

The Detroit native has already put in work with some of hip hop's biggest names, however, he's not content on just being average. He wants to push his career to the limit.

"He actually told me that I was going to be the best. But I took that as the potential, because he speaks with so much passion. What he meant was, I'm his protégé, he took me under his wing. I'm in the studio hanging with him and Jay-Z, I'm in the studio with Nas, I'm in the studio with everybody, and it's like, if I don't take it past where they took it, then what the hell am I doin'?"

A few months ago, Big Sean stated that even Kanye himself weighed in on where his artist's future looks upon rap icon Jay-Z.

"I think he wants the best, just somebody that he thinks has the potential to be bigger and better than him, his protégé or whatever. I remember we were standing next to Jay-Z and he was like you're gonna be the best rapper, talking to me. And Jay was looking like, 'Yeah, whatever.'"
