I spoke to a rep at Rolling Stone. They say the Drake quote is real. http://t.co/gA2yVJaBCa
We already got a little taste of Drake's upcoming interview in Rolling Stone when the magazine put a news item up online that Drizzy was unimpressed by Macklemore's post-Grammys public apology to Kendrick Lamar, calling it "wack as fuck." But this isn't the only instance of candor in the profile.
Drake also, allegedly, criticized some of Kanye West's lyrics on Yeezus. The interview quotes Drake saying, "There were some real questionable bars on there. Like that 'Swaghili' line? Come on, man. Fabolous wouldn't say some shit like that." While this part of the piece has not run on rollingstone.com, Hiphop-n-More has published scanned images of the article. And the blog buzz about the quote has sent Drizzy into a tizzy. The rapper took to Twitter to deny what he is claiming is a fabricated quote, seemed "disgusted" that the recently passed Philip Seymour Hoffman replaced him as cover star, and announced he's no longer doing press. Some of these Tweets were deleted later but can be viewed via RealTalkNY screenshots.
