The O.D.: A Mixtape Daily Exclusive

Holla at the champs — your boys have finally decided to get it in on Twitter, so shout us out at @shaheemreid and @mongosladenyc. Let's have dialogue and check for exclusives. Big up to Wiz Khalifa's army, the Taylor Gang, who have been hitting us up about the mixtape Kush and Orange Juice by @RealWizKhalifa. We got something all the Taylors will be interested in real soon.

Now, down to business — we recently brought you clarified word that Lil Wayne appears on Drake's June 15 LP Thank Me Later via the track "Miss Me." But there's more Wayne and Drake in the can. Drizzy sings on a remix of Wayne's No Ceilings jam "I'm Single." Drake was so enamored with the record, he wanted to get on the hook. That version is nestled in the Young Money vaults.

"I love that song," Drake told us earlier this week. "I love that song. 40 produced that record for Wayne. I did that a while ago. I love that song. It's one of those songs I wish was my song. I tried to slither my way on that record. I called Tez like, 'Tez, let me get on that hook.' There's a version with me on it. I don't know if it's gonna get out there. Music is someone else's creation. Once it's done, it's hard to say I wanna be a part of it. But me and Wayne, I get excited when Wayne wants to be on one of my songs. Musically we share that. We like doing songs together. I don't think it's a bad thing when we do songs together. ... So there's definitely a version with me on it. But that song is amazing on its own."

As for "Miss Me," Drake said it's "straightforward."

"It's a pretty straightforward [song]," Drake said. "It's a song about being away from what you love and hoping that when you're gone, doing you, somebody out there misses you. It goes for Wayne in his situation and it goes for me in my situation, 'cause I'm on the road for I don't how long right now."

The video for the version of "I"m Single" that appears on No Ceilings debuts this Sunday on MTV2's "Sucker Free Sunday" countdown and on MTV Jams as the Jam of the Week.

"The thing with Wayne, if you don't get a chance to see how hard he worked on the record and the wit and pizazz he had with it, he wants to give you that same feeling the first time you hear it," said DJ Scoob Doo, who directed the video. "Which he does audio-wise, but him performing it for you in the studio is really what it's about, as far as this video."
