Is Wiz Khalifa the only artist to not take the Drake stimulus package?

If I remember correctly he offered him a spot to tour together but Wiz turned it down saying he wanted to do his own thing

Yeah its mutually beneficial but I just found it interesting that every big artist nowadays had some form of the Drake stimulus package (J.Cole, Kendrick, Meek, YG, ASAP Rocky, 2 Chainz, etc). Now they all had their own buzz prior :whoa: but they got a boost in visibilty and he got styles to leech off of :skip:/ street cred:mjpls:/etc. Kept him hot and everyone got some new fans/collabs. Its cool how Wiz turned it down and still had a solid level of success though:obama: (even if he fell off :sadbron:)

Add Waka Flocka and French Montana to that list too. That Club Paradise tour back in 2013 :wow:

I remember Wiz wanting Drake to get on the Work Hard Play Hard remix and Drake said no. Thank fukk because that song was wiggity. They never did work together after that. So yeah, maybe he's the only one. Wale too come to think of it.
