Yesterday it was Macklemore that had Drake heated; today it's Rolling Stone's tribute to Philip Seymour Hoffman.
Rolling Stone teased their upcoming feature story on the Canadian rapper yesterday with some choice quotes from Drizzy Drake about the apology Macklemore sent to Kendrick Lamar after the Grammys. He also had some negative things to say about Kanye West's last album, 'Yeezus'.
Now it turns out that Drake thought those comments were off the record, and that the interview was originally meant to be for a cover story. So why did October's Very Own get booted from the cover? Because the magazine wanted to pay tribute to the life of Philip Seymour Hoffman instead.
Drake wasn't having it, tweeting about his "disgust" with the magazine (the tweets have since been deleted): "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 Philip 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.

Yeah, Philip Seymour Hoffman! Fuck you for dying and stealing Drake's Rolling Stone cover! (All respect due.)The full story should be online soon — if the rest of the quotes are half as good as the ones that have emerged over the last couple of days, it'll be a must-read.
