For those who have waited, Drake has finished a collaboration with Jay-Z titled “Light Up.”

“When I heard that beat, the drums that they had come up with, it was like, ‘Man, this is a moment,’ ” said the Toronto rapper to MTV News. ” ‘This sounds like where I’m at in my life.’ So, we took it and 40 did what he does to pieces of music that I see potential in — he took it to the next spot. Jay-Z’s on it. The song is phenomenal. It’s done now.”

“40″ refers to Noah “40″ Shebib, the producer of the track.

Jay and Drake hooked up on The Blueprint 3 track “Off That,” but the song only featured Drake on the verse. He says that this time around, both emcees will have proper verses.

The young rapper also indicated that he expects to have Lil Wayne and Kanye West contribute as well.
