Is Future really suing Drake?
Drake’s “Would You Like A Tour” tour is scheduled to take off this week and Atlanta rapper Future won’t be on the bill.
In an interview with Billboard, Future criticized Drake’s songwriting ability with a back-handed compliment that may have come back to haunt him.
“Drake made an album that is full of hits but it doesn’t grab you. They’re not possessive; they don’t make you feel the way I do.”
This was an original excerpt that was tweeted, which Future’s camp says was misquoted and off the record.
Future has now reportedly filed a 1.5-million-dollar lawsuit against Drake in response to the money he would be losing on the tour.
That’s unfortunate considering how the two make great music together. Loose lips sink ships.
Is Donald Glover a.k.a. Childish Gambino OK?
The rapper and comedian who is best known for his role on NBC’s Community left a series of notes via Instagram, venting about his fears and insecurities.
According to the notes a lot has happened over the year for the East Atlanta rapper. Gambino talks about being sick, seeing his loved ones die, and how his current record label doesn’t have faith in his potential.
