Kia $hine took some time to discuss things to clear some of the rumors up and let the truth about how he really feels come out.
September has been a big month for you. Everyone’s been talking about your situation with Drake and the credits for his single, ‘Best I Ever Had’. When do you feel this buzz will phase out?
It’s brought a lot of hate as if I didn’t have enough already. I hear and read about people saying I’m being desperate and people saying that I am lying. In this business you have to have tough skin. Do I not take credit for what’s mine? All the talk about this situation shows people don’t know the music business. I could have said something about [this entire situation] back in January [2009] but I didn’t. Drake is a talented artist and I’m not going to take that from him.
