Drake ‘disgusted’ at Rolling Stone for replacing him with Philip Seymour Hoffman cover.

 The late Philip Seymour Hoffman on the cover of a Rolling Stone March issue. The magazine originally planned a Drake cover, according to the rapper. 

Rapper Drake took to his twitter account to vent about Rolling Stone replacing his cover with that of the late actor Philip Hoffman. The actor's sudden death interrupted a lot of things, a major one being his filming project, so it it comes off as heartless for Drake to point fingers at Rolling Stone for ditching him at the very last minute. Sources close to him claim that, his main issue is that he felt tricked by the magazine. He did the interview on condition that he'd be on the cover. Not sure why the rapper was so desperate for this particular cover.


Your guess is as good as mine, Rolling Stone Magazine did not take that lying down. They said that Drake had been notified that he would not be on this particular cover. They offered an explanation that such impromptu changes occur when musicians and actors pass away.

Other than the cover, the rapper had another beef with the magazine.During the interview, it is said that he made some comments about Kanye West that the magazine went ahead and printed. The rapper supposedly dissed some of Kanye West's raps as "questionable," adding that "even Fabulous wouldn't say" some of the lines that the "Blood on the Leaves" rapper included on his album.

Fast-forward to today, Drake declines having made the comments/quotes. He dropped some tweets swearing that he never made any statement about Kanye. Once again, Rolling Stone took to their twitter to stand by their word.
His comments were probably off-the-record and now that they made print, Drake appears upset that West, the rapper he's often heralded as a mentor, will catch wind of his diss.

Checkout his tweets that he has since deleted...
