Here is part 2 of a brief interview that we had with Drizzy, who performed at the Sprite Step Off Show in Atlanta this weekend. (watch part 1 here)
With this being the last part of our brief interview with Drake, I can say itâs perfect timing. If you watched what I watched from XXL earlier today youâll know definitely what I mean. In the video Drizzy talks about the freshmen list as well as âreturning the favorâ to the magazine and when asked about his recent spread with GQ, he speaks on his relationship with Jordan Brand and shows off his Air Jordan Anniversary 9âs âlike a basketball player.â

With what seems like the weight of the world on his shoulders, Drake still strolls into a room with the confidence a newly crowned winner. HipHollywood caught up with the rap phenom in Atlanta at the Sprite Step Off competition and he revealed that he canât quite step, but he can cut a few moves. âI canât step, but I can slow danceâŠif I find the right slow dancing partner.â
Drake spends quite a bit of time in Atlanta and reveals that it reminds him a lot of his hometown.
âI love everything about Atlanta. I just shot a Complex cover here. I love lights, and Atlanta at night is beautiful. The women are beautiful, the food is good. The condos are nice. Itâs a great place. Iâm always looking for elements of Toronto whenever I go somewhere because thatâs my favorite city.â • Read full story

Here is part 1 of a brief interview that we had with Drizzy, who performed at the Sprite Step Off Show in Atlanta this weekend.
We spoke to him on his upcoming debut, Thank Me Later and what we can expect. The significance of the video is when he references a certain legend in Hip Hop that he studied for the album. Also we would like to thank the lovely ladies Danielle and Becky Billions as well as the homie Adam for your assistance. And if youâre wondering, thatâs Ludacris who he is shaking hands with.

Being anointed the biggest Jewish-Canadian rapper in the world might sound like faint praise, but Drake isnât exactly playing the Yukon bar mitzvah circuit.

So what did Drake do to celebrate? âI didnât even know that happened,â he says with a laugh. • Read full story

ââAre we crazy?â And it took a whileâŠit takes a while.â
Throughout the year, The Recording Academy (the folks behind The Grammys) hosts a series of conversations with artists from all over the country. Last week, the Nashville chapter held a Q&A with Drake, whose fascinating background and radio hits (such as this summerâs âBest I Ever Hadâ) have thrust him into the spotlight as the genreâs up-and-coming artist to watch. We sent guest writer and Recording Academy member Andrew Tritter to the program to take down what he could from the Academyâs conversation with the rapper who is poised to take over 2010. • Read full story

Lil Wayne recently caught up with Billboard Magazine for an interview (he is on the current cover pictured above) and Drake was brought up in the process. Check out what Weezy had to say!
Billboard: How is Drakeâs solo album coming along?
Lil Wayne: Heâs one of those guys who needs no help, (laughs) I donât do anything but say, âLet me hear that song.â And Iâm blown away with every word. Iâm honored to have him. Knowing Drake, I want to say heâs probably finished with the project. But heâs one of those guys who keeps going back to put more icing on the cake.

On September 7, 2008, Lil Wayne stepped onstage at the MTV Video Music Awards and then stepped decisively away from the words on the lyric sheet circulating in the audience with the following linesâŠ
Iâm on my Disney thang, goofy flow/ Iâm Captain Hook on the beat and my new car is Rufio/ Damn where my roof just go/ Iâm somebody that you should know/ Get to shakinâ somethinâ cause thatâs what [deleted] produced it foâ/ I make mistakes that I donât ever make excuses foâ/ Leavinâ girls that love me and constantly seducing hoes/ Iâm losing my mind like, Damn where my roof just go/ Top slipped off like Janet at the Super Bowl

Lil Wayne protege/ ‘Down’ singer won’t confirm or deny rumors.
In the past two weeks, British pop-R&B singer Jay Sean’s debut single “Down” (featuring Lil Wayne), has rocketed from #63 to #6 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. On the iTunes Top 10 songs chart, “Down” is now nestled in between the Black Eyed Peas and Kings of Leon at #2. Yes, to say life is moving exceptionally fast for the newcomer (to most Americans, anyway) would be an understatement.
“It’s absolutely crazy,” Sean told MTV News on the phone from England Thursday. “I’ve been out there in the States for a good six or seven months, and with my song coming in at #2 on iTunes, all my best friends came up to London to be with me for a little holiday. And we were all sitting in my car and I opened up my e-mail and it said ‘Jay Sean in at #6 on Billboard.’ I just literally screamed and all my boys rolled down the windows and screamed, ‘My boy is in at #6!’ ”
When asked, Sean said, “I’m keeping my mouth shut. I love Drake. I think Drake’s an unbelievably gifted lyricist and young and fresh. I think it’s pretty safe to say that since he’s part of the family now, you’re gonna see all of us working together: Me, Drake, Wayne, Baby and Kevin Rudolph.”
A rep for Drake had not responded to MTV News’ request for comment at press time.
Jay Sean’s album, My Own Way, is scheduled for an October Stateside release
‘I just wanted to laugh,’ Drake says of clip featuring women’s basketball team.
Some fans liked it, some fans were scratching their heads after the debut of Drake’s “Best I Ever Had” video last month. Some in the blogosphere said the clip’s buxom female basketball team did nothing but cater to the male audience without matching the theme of the song; others just thought it wasn’t all that creative. And a couple of bloggers even went so far as to suggest that director Kanye West sabotaged Drake’s production.
In fact, Drake told MTV News that West offered to shoot another video for the song, and he declined. He noted that receiving mixed reviews of his clip was a great lesson. • Read full story
Recently, Drake sat down with Complex magazine to discuss his recent performance of “Every Girl” at the 2009 BET Awards and his alleged $4 million dollar deal with Lil Wayne’s Young Money label.
Complex: There were rumors of a $4 million bonusâŠ
Drake: [Laughs] Where is it? Tell me where it is, Iâll go pick it up right now. I got some money. I got a little money. Iâll be alright for a couple months.
Complex: Damn, thatâs horrible. At the BET Awards this past Sunday, everyone was shocked to see you sitting on a stool. Did you ever think to yourself, Maybe I shouldnât perform?
Drake: That, actuallyâto be honestâwas a terrible idea that Iâll never do to myself again. [Laughs] But I was being pressed from different areas to perform, and I think what really happened at the BET Awards is with the passing of Mike, the climate really changed, as far as the award show goes. I donât think it called for us to perform âEvery Girlâ and âAlways Strapped,â and I think it was an award show filled with tributes and music and these genuine heartfelt speeches. And to sort of climax out of a very tongue-in-cheek point, and then people misconstruing Wayneâs daughters and her friends coming out on stageâŠ
Complex: Yeah, it really was an awkward moment.
Drake: Yeah, it was just timed very poorly and it definitely wasnât planned like that, but with that being said, it is what is. I believe in Wayne and myself and itâs nothing we canât bounce back from. To anyone who was offended, my personal apologies, it wasnât intended to offend anybody.
Complex: Everyoneâs been waiting on this video. Can you take us through the making of it?
Drake: Yeah. The video is directed by Kanye West. Basically we decided, as opposed to taking ourselves super serious, we just wanted to have some fun with it. Myself, being a young man, a young single man at that, I kind of wanted to be real about the way I function with women at this current point in my life. Which is, I donât have one woman that I call my girl. Thereâs different girls in my life that play different roles and I see at different times, but collectively they kind of make up the roster of happiness for me [Laughs].
Complex: Understandable. So whatâs the concept?
Drake: The concept of the video is, Iâm a coach at a high school and the girls of my life are all on my high school basketball team. Throughout the video you see us prepping for this big championship game, and my team ends up losing. You see the looks on their faces at the end of the video, but the moral of the story, I guess, is win or lose, you can still be the best to somebody. When women see the video and see all the breast and ass, hopefully they donât take offense. Hopefully they see the real meaning.
Here is an interview Drake did while he was in Washington, D.C. about a month ago to perform at Love nightclub. He talks about how rapping is easier and quicker than acting and hip hop in general among other things. Check out the video below and let us know what you think in the comments.
Below are tour dates for Drake's upcoming "Away From Home" tour that will begin on April 6th in Charleston, Illinois and end on May 8th in Plymouth, New Hampshire. Confirmed dates are below:
