SZA says that she was worried Drake was trying to “sabotage” her when he put out their collaboration, “Slime You Out.” Speaking with The Wall Street Journal, She explained that the Toronto rapper accepted her first draft of her contribution, which she found suspicious. Drake dropped the song as the lead single from his eighth studio album, For All the Dogs, in September.
“If you accept my first draft,” SZA said, “I won’t trust you.” She then used her collaboration on Drake’s single, “Slime You Out,” as an example. “I just handed in the first draft to Drake, and he’s putting it on his album,” she stated. “I’m scared because I handed in second vocals and he didn’t use that. And now I’m like, ‘Are you trying to sabotage me?’ I know that’s not true. I literally know that’s not true, but that’s how bad I feel about my first draft. When things come from an effortless space, I almost can’t enjoy it.”
