This feels like Future x Billboard all over again! Hope it doesn’t mess up Yeezy and Drake’s budding bromance like it almost did Future and Drake’s!
Yesterday afternoon, a preview of Drake’s interview with Rolling Stone hit the web via photos of the soon-to-be-released issue. The late Phillip Seymour Hoffman covers the mag, but according to Drake, that was supposed to be his spot and he’s not happy about it. For those blasting him for saying that – I THINK what he’s saying is he would have rathered Rolling Stone wait until next month to publish his interview along with his cover, instead of promising a cover and then not delivering, but putting him in the issue anyway. They could have let Hoffman rock this go ’round and then let Drizzy have his shine. That’s my take on it!

Anyway, in the article, Rolling Stone published a few quotes from Drake that speak negatively about Kanye’s 2013 album, Yeezus. “There were some real questionable bars on there,” Drake allegedly said. “Like that ‘Swaghili‘ line? Come on, man. Even Fabolous wouldn’t say some shit like that.” However, he wasn’t here to diss Ye. “Kanye’s the reason why I’m here,” he added. “I love everything about that guy.”
Honestly, I don’t think what he “allegedly” said was wrong. Everyone is entitled to an opinion, and he wasn’t tearing Kanye down. However, this may have been something that was supposed to be ‘off the record,’ as Drizzy took to Twitter just a little while ago and he is PISSED! He does NOT deny that he said it, but he says it was “not for the interview portion.” AKA, like I said, off the record. Check out his tweets in the gallery!
