After
ripping the press especially Rolling Stone Magazine for changing its mind and
replacing him with late Phillip Seymour on its cover, Drake has apologized
for his tweets criticizing Rolling Stone's decision. The Canadian rapper wrote what has been described as "a classy apology", he wrote:
"I
completely support and agree with Rolling Stone replacing me on the cover with
the legendary Phillip [sic] Seymour Hoffman. He is one of the most incredible
actors of our time and a man that deserves to be immortalized by this
publication,"
"My frustration stemmed from the way it was executed.
The circumstances at hand are completely justifiable (on the magazines [sic]
behalf), but I was not able to salvage my story or my photos and that was
devastating. They ran the issue without giving me a choice to be in it or not.
I would have waited until it was my time because I understand the magnitude of
the cover they chose but I just wasn't given that option and that made me feel
violated. I apologize to anybody who took my initial comments out of context
because in no way would I ever want to offend the Hoffman family or see myself
as bigger than that moment."
Moral
of the story, don’t mess with the press…
