This artist named Kia Shine was saying stuff about how he gets 25% of the shares from Drakes hit-single "Best I Ever Had". He Stated that Drake sampled the opening tune and a few lines from a song he produced for Lil' Wayne titled "Do It For The Boy". Shine said in an interview that he had worked out a deal (25%) with Drake after he sampled his track without the rights.
This is what Drake had to say (posted on his blog):
There have been questions posed to me the last few days about the writing of Best I Ever Had and I figured I'd take the time to clear the air directly. I have never met Kia Shine or worked with him. I wrote the entire composition in Toronto and I borrowed one line from a Lil Wayne song that he produced the BEAT for. The claims of 25% ownership are false and for a artist to brag about splits on a song is distasteful to begin with. - Drake
What people will do for a piece of the pie... common Kia Shine, this is ridiculous!
