Drake Confirms He Wrote "Un-Thinkable" for Nicki Minaj

It's true. Two weeks ago Nicki Minaj revealed to Complex magazine that Drake told her he wrote Alicia Keys' "Un-Thinkable (I'm Ready)" with her in mind.

You know what else he told me he wrote for me?" Nicki told Complex. "The Alicia Keys song 'I'm Ready.' I happen to love the song. I never told anyone that, I hope he won't get mad that I said that.

While Nicki says she didn't take Drizzy's revelation seriously, the rapper recently confirmed that the lyrics were inspired by his label mate.

It is [about Minaj], I’m not gonna lie," Drake told BET.com. "The concept came from a conversation that we had, or conversations we have. I wrote it based off two things: number one, based off that, and then two, based off Alicia [Keys] and Swizz and their situation and it just seemed fitting. It was like the perfect concept.
