Girls love Beyoncé, and according to Drake they also need her.

During an interview with Ryan Seacrest, the Toronto MC, who famously revealed his "Girls Love Beyoncé" track back in April, said that he is "a Beyoncé believer ... I really believe strongly in her talent and her position in our generation. I think she’s one of the biggest stars ever, but especially for these girls right now. I feel like they need Beyoncé.”

He additionally dropped a bit of news, confirming that he had "reached out to her and asked if I could come and be a part of her project, and she was kind enough to invite me out there. And we did some work together.”

Drake also praised Justin Timberlake as one of his mentors, saying, "He is somebody that gives me the best advice in the world, that’s very open about his experiences and encourages me to act."
