Today Drake was spotted on the set of Anchorman 2 in New York alongside Will Ferrell and Christina Applegate. The movie is a sequel to the hilarious comedy “Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy” that came out in 2004. Other cameos in the film include Kristen Wiig, Kanye West, Amy Poehler, and Tina Fey. Check out some pictures and video of him on set below. We can’t wait to see what role Drake will play in the movie! “Call me Ron Burgandy, ya’ll the other anchormen.”

Drake brought Busta Rhymes out on the Club Paradise tour last year in New York and again on New Years in Miami. Since they are both on the same label many have wondered if the pair would collaborate. Well, it looks like it just might happen. According to Busta, he has a song with Drake over a Dilla beat that his half-finished. Let’s hope this goes through and everything works out! Check the excerpts below to see what Busta had to say on both being inspired by Drake and the collaboration.

Being Inspired By Drake

You joined Lil Wayne’s YMCMB family in 2011. What has YMCMB done for you, and what could they do better?
Number one, I’m inspired by the Weezy and the Drake talent. Part of the reason I’ve been able to do this for so long is because of the excitement you continue to feel since day one, other motherfuckers being dope. Like, you feel you could be just as dope or better. You aspire to do that; you use these guys as inspiration. And it’s all respect! Respectable competition. I’m a fan first. When I see Drake, when I see Wayne work, Shanell – she hasn’t put out an album yet, but I’ve watched her work – I’m a super-fan of that. Mystikal, I’m happy they signed him! [Pause] I even think Nicki’s incredibly brilliant. Beyond that, I love what they represent as a movement, and I love the camaraderie that we’ve had. Me and Bird and Wayne, Slim, have always rocked with each other for the past 12 to 15 years! I just think the respect organically built throughout the years has been consistent. That alone has done a lot for me, at this stage of my career. I’ve done stuff with people I didn’t really have that great relationship with, and gotten amazing results. Now, to rock with motherfuckers that you really cool with? Can you imagine the results that be coming from some shit like that?

 On Collaboration

And yet, we’ve never heard you do anything with Drake – why is that?
Um . . . and you haven’t heard anything with me and Nicki. “Roman’s Revenge (Remix),” that was something I did on my own. It wasn’t like an official remix, so technically, we haven’t gone in to do a record neither. So, Drake and Nicki, we haven’t gone in, no. 

Is that something that’s potentially in the works, or . . . ?
Yeah, of course. It usually happens when the times are right or when the idea is right.

Have they approached you before and it just didn’t work out?
No. We’ve talked before. I’ve had several conversations about doing records with Drake, we’ve actually been in the studio trying to fuck around. Same with Nicki. It just . . . when we start an idea, sometimes you get distracted. The stars just hasn’t aligned yet for that to actually happen. I think also, schedule. They’ve been shaking consistently for the last two, three years, putting out an album a year. They’ve been touring, ripping and running. And then when they’re down, she’s busy taping this American Idol shit and all of that; Drake is working on a new album. It’s just hectic, hectic schedules. You can definitely look forward to something eventually coming together, us collaborating. I have something that’s actually halfway done with Drake on a J. Dilla beat. It’s incredible.

And that’s for your project?
Yeah. So hopefully we get to finish this the right way so we can share it.

My personal favorite from the mixtape is “Wilhelm’s Fucking Best” which is a mashup of James Blake’s “Wilhelm Scream” and Drake’s “Best I Ever Had”.

A couple of weeks ago Drake threw everyone for a loop when DJ Khaled released the song “No New Friends” which features Drake, Lil Wayne, and Rick Ross. The song is a remix to Drake’s lead single “Started From The Bottom” which released earlier in the year. It looks as though they are sticking to the script as the visuals for the 2011 DJ Khaled summer hit “I’m On One” were also shot in Miami. Drake is taking us back to the 90′s as he was on set rocking a Dada shirt. You can catch a couple of pics from on the set below. Also, check a short VINE video of the mansion where the video is being filmed at.

Its been a minute since Drake has been in Toronto, but he’s back in his city. Drake made time on Monday to stop by the studio and hear some of P.Reign’s new music for his upcoming mixtape ‘Dear America’ which will be released on July 4th. He also stopped by Beach Blast (where 5Am In Toronto visuals were shot) for a party. Looks like Drake is in great spirits as he smiled in the paparazzi pictures! Check the pics below.

According to Lil Wayne, there is a possibility of Drake being added to the Big Tymers album. For those who are unaware, the Big Tymers are a Cash Money rap duo that consists of Baby (Birdman) and producer Mannie Fresh. Drake has paid a bit of homage to the Big Tymers with the line,“I’m a Big Tymer nigga yeah, money flippa yeah” which derives from the song “Practice”. Also on previous tours, Drake has brought Birdman out to perform the Big Tymer hit song “Still Fly”. Though Wayne said Drake is extremely busy, lets hope that he makes a little time to be a part of the project. Check the video below.

UPDATE: Lil Wayne and Birdman talked with Sway on Rap Fix Live and confirmed the Big Tymers album with Drake. Additionally, they said the Big Tymers will include Birdman, Wayne, and Drake. No Mannie Fresh. Lil Wayne said that Drake hit him up and has started to look for music for the album.
