This chick uses her looks to lure in the guys. More specifically, she probably is getting man to throw more money her way when she strips.
Drake doesn’t blame her, maybe because she’s just that hot, or maybe he’s had a few drinks. It’s most likely due to the fact that he just has a tendency to really understand the women.

Leading up to Graduation, Kanye was in a very public sales feud with 50 Cent. Now that it’s here, the demand is high, thus paying lots of money for this album. A little stat, Graduation sold 957,000 units in the first week. That’s a lot of paper!
This may also be directed at the collaboration between Kanye and Lil' Wayne. Both rappers were hot at the time and were among some of the best alive. When two rappers of their stature are both killing it in the game, people ask for a collab.

Tay Zonday is the sensation famous for singing the song “Chocolate Rain”
A lot of people find this song funny, usually because Tay’s deep voice and looks don’t exactly matchup. However, the lyrics of “Chocolate Rain” are quite deep, as they deal with struggles inside and outside the black community, as do Kanye’s.
