Drake and Nicki Minaj have been very, very good for Lil Wayne.  In fact, he just sold their Young Money masters for $100 million.

But Drake doesn't expect to get another windfall from his future artists because he doesn't think he'll ever see another Drake or Nicki.  He made that clear in an interview with Sovereign Brands CEO Brett Beris, who distributes Wayne's Bumbu Rum.

"There's no such thing," Wayne said when asked about the next Drizzy or Barbz. "I hate when people ask me that. There's no such thing as the next Drake or the next Nicki."

Beris then clarified he just meant the "next big thing."

"Back then, when I did discover Drake and Nicki, the game was different. Music was different," Wayne explained. "What I mean by that is they came in right before all the social media popped off. They came in when music had everybody's attention. It had everybody looking to see how is next, what is next."

Do you agree that social media changed the game or is that just old man talk.?
