Metro Boomin’s Heroes & Villains albums featured John Legend, Future, Chris Brown, Don Toliver, Travis Scott, 21 Savage, Young Nudy, Young Thug, The Weeknd, Mustafa, ASAP Rocky, Gunna, and Takeoff.
It didn’t feature Drake.
Even though Drake wanted to be featured.
Drizzy wanted to jump on the Travis Scott and Young Thug featured track, “Trance”, and even cut a verse for it that you might be able to find on the Internet.
However, Young Metro decided he had enough bars with Thugger and LaFlame and didn’t include Drake’s addition.
“I was in the studio with Drake one time because we were gonna do some stuff for my album. He just wanted to hear some songs from my album, and then he heard that one,” Metro told DJ Drama. “He really wanted to get on it but I was letting him know that it was really just done for real. I was really just set on how it was. I was like, ‘Bro, I ain’t trying to sell you no dream. I’m locked in where it was.’ He had hit me and was just like, ‘Let me see if there’s anything you could add to it.’ He was like, ‘If you don’t like it, then whatever.’ He did some stuff, a couple parts was cool but like I just felt like just even with like Slime verse and Trav verse and the outro, it wasn’t just no room. It wasn’t nothing personal.”
Heroes and Villains opened number one in December and may end up platinum despite not getting the Drake stimulus package.
