Drake has responded to news that Kanye West has sampled his uncle’s music.
Drake’s uncle, Larry Graham, was a bass player for Sly And The Family Stone, as well as frontman of Graham Central Station. His song ‘Stand Up and Shout About Love’ was recently sampled by West for recent track ‘No More Parties In LA’.
The Canadian rapper, who has worked with West on numerous occasions in the past, has uploaded a photo showing a vinyl copy of his uncle’s 1980 solo album ‘One In A Million You’, from which ‘Stand Up and Shout About Love’ is lifted, to Instagram.
A caption reads: “Few more parties in LA.” See that picture beneath.
