Big Sean & Hit-Boy details difficulties while working with Kanye West.
Big Sean and Hit-Boy recently dropped a joint project called “What You Expect“, and now the duo appeared on “Million Dollaz Worth of Game” Podcast for a new interview. Gillie and Wallo often manage to elicit some insightful yet frank feedback from their guests, and Big Sean and Hit-Boy was no exception. When the two artists talked about their collaborative project What You Expect, they also talked about the things they had in common before bringing it together. During the interview, Big Sean and Hit-Boy both revealed the difficulties they face while working with Kanye West.
“Kanye can be very hard to work it,” Big Sean said & then Hit-Boy added, “I thought you was gonna say that first.” “Kanye will have you re-do a verse 10 times and not use them,” reveals Sean. “[Kanye will have you] redo some drums 10 times,” said Hit-Boy.
Big Sean gave more details with “Clique” as an example, the collab with Kanye West and Jay-Z. “With ‘Clique’, Me, Him & Hov. I just did that verse on the fly. Everybody did their verse to it. So there’s like eight other verses on there,” says Big Sean. “I guess after him and Hov met up, they cut everybody but they was like, ‘Leave Sean on there, he went too crazy on the hook.’ I’m not just saying that, that’s what he told me. Ye hit me and was like, ‘Congrats, bro.’”
Recently, Big Sean left the GOOD Music label after 13 years, and then Kanye West said on the “Drink Champs” show that signing Sean Don was the biggest mistake he ever did. Big Sean revealed that the Million Dollaz interview was shot before Kanye West’s interview was aired. “Did this Million Dollars Worth A Game interview bout a month ago, a lot of people looking at it as a response to Ye’s Drink Champs and it’s not, I filmed it before that,” he said in the now-deleted tweet.
