On Trill O.G.‘s track number four, you can hear Drake spit ”I got 100 girls in each phone/ Drizzy Drake mane, Young Sweet Jones,” in reference to the late Pimp C. Drizzy tells 1515 that those lyrics have ruffled a few feathers when taken out of context.

“It’s just seeing a bit of them in myself; by no means did I mean to offend. I heard it was somebody upset about me making that reference. I think it was somebody in his family or something. But I never mean any disrespect. I love rap. Young Sweet Jones is just a little nickname. People really started calling me that before I ever said it in a rap song. I used to rep for Houston so hard. They just be like, ‘Man, that’s Young Sweet Jones right there.’ I just put it in a song. And it sounded dope.”
