After working as well as performing together within the last year, prominent Dancehall singjay, Mavado and Canadian hip-hop superstar, Drake are set to put their chemistry to the ultimate test.
According to reports, the self-professed Gully Gaad and the Young Money rapper will soon be releasing a jointalbum; combining Dancehall and hip-hop styles. The collaborative album bares similarities to Distant Relatives, the joint effort by Reggae superstar, Damian Jr. Gong Marley and American hip-hop veteran, Nas that was released in May 2010.
A source within Mavados Gullyside camp revealed the news to Urban Islandz; intimating that the new album will be done through the conduit of DJ Khaleds label, We The Best Music Group.
Since Vado return to the States and sign with Khaled there are a number of collaboration requests coming in from several rappers, but definitely he is looking forward to drop a full length LP with Drake. Drizzy and Vado are close friends so its only natural, the source insisted. You can look for appearances from Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj, Khaled and Busta Rhymes to name a few, he continued.
Mavado recently hinted in an interview that hes had a desire to collaborate with Drakes mentor and internationally acclaimed hip-hop superstar, Lil Wayne. From a couple years ago Ive always wanted to do a mad record with (Lil) Wayne, Mavado said. That kid is crazy, trust me hes out of this world. Its gon happen in due time. We gon put some steroids to this game and turn it up, loud!
Meanwhile, Mavado is in Miami with Morgan Heritage relative and hip-hop star, Laza Morgan to shoot the music video for their popular hit single, One by One. The song earned #1 chart status in Jamaica and has been a regular on American airwaves since its initial release in March.
