Big Sean called Babyface Ray the next hip-hop star

Back in June this year, Big Sean attended an event with Babyface Ray and said that Ray would soon be the next hip-hop star. During the event, Sean stated that Ray was the chosen one and continued,

"It's like he pulled the sword out of the motherf**kin stone you know what I mean? King Arthur, you know what I mean? And that happens only once every decade, once every other decade every thirty, forty years so it's like you gotta understand how special it is."

Before the event, Sean and Ray were working together at a studio in Los Angeles. Although they released a song titled It Ain't My Fault, their bonding was affected when Ray criticized Sean for rejecting a collaboration on the song Richard Flair.


Despite all this, Ray spoke to Complex and stated that Sean was the reason why he became so popular in the hip-hop industry. He said that Sean has always praised his style and that they have known each other since childhood.

According to Babyface Ray, Big Sean was never aware of his rapping talent and was happy to have been able to work with Sean in the studio.
