So apparently there was supposed to be a big Drake cover story in the upcoming issue of Rolling Stone — and then Philip Seymour Hoffman had the audacity to go overdose on heroin, thereby stealing the cover treatment right out from under the Toronto rapper’s fingertips.
And Drizzy is pizzy.
Whoa, what?
According to Consequence of Sound this morning, “Drake also wasn’t pleased with apparent comments he made regarding Kanye West’s latest album, Yeezus. According to Complex, Drake is quoted as saying, ‘There were some real questionable bars on there. Like that ‘Swaghili’ line? Come on, man. Fabolous wouldn’t say some shit like that.'”
So naturally Drake took to twitter to clear the air — but also reveal some sour grapes about not being featured on the cover.
I never commented on Yeezus for my interview portion of Rolling Stone. They also took my cover from me last minute and ran the issue.

I'm disgusted with that. RIP to Phillip Seymour Hoffman. All respect due. But the press is evil.

I'm done doing interviews for magazines. I just want to give my music to the people. That's the only way my message gets across accurately.
