Project Pat recently talked about how his appearance on Drake's Certified Lover Boy track, "Knife Talk," came together before explaining why Drake's father always has a pass in Memphis.
While talking about the CLB track, Project Pat said "Knife Talk" was an old song Metro Boomin was holding onto after it failed to make the final cut on a 21 Savage project. After Drake got a hold of the record, Project Pat claimed the rap superstar called and gave him the "Drake blessing."
Project Pat described his relationship with Drake and acknowledged the Canadian rapper's ties to Memphis. After stating that Drake's father, Dennis Graham, lives in the city, he explained why Drake never has to worry about anything happening to his father in Memphis.
"I mess with Drake daddy, Drake daddy mess with everybody down here," Project Pat said. "OG, he be downtown kickin' it. Look -- and the gangstas -- ain't nothing 'gon happen to him. Nothin'. Ain't nobody 'gon mess with Drake daddy, bruh. Nobody, man. No, you 'gon get flatlined. They don't play that because, see, Drake show too much love down here."
The Three 6 Mafia affiliate added that Memphis residents show extreme loyalty to people that show love to the city. Project Pat claimed that because there isn't much love shown to the city, residents go out of their way for those who showcase the city to the rest of the world in a positive light.
Check out the rest of the above clip to hear Project Pat offer his thoughts on what the reception would be if he released his debut album, Ghetty Green, in today's rap climate, as well as Three 6 Mafia clearing about 20 samples per week.
