Hip hop fans hoping for an all-out lyrical between Common and Drake just got their hopes dashed. In an exclusive interview with Nahright.com, Drake killed the hopes of any hip-hop fans (or proud Canadians) who thought he’d respond to Common’s diss on the “Stay Schemin” (REMIX). While on the set of the “The Zone” video featuring The Weeknd, Drake broke his silence about the Common diss: So people want to know: will you respond to Common? No. Because despite how it’s been worded by him that situation is not a “hip hop moment” or a “battle for the sake of musical integrity”…it’s a ploy for attention around the release of an album. More than anything it was just disappointing cause what kid isn’t a fan of what Common has done for our genre. A guy who made such an incredible career for himself based off expressing genuine feelings about life and love is now targeting me for sharing my story. Wow. If that’s how he felt, why did he respond to “Sweet” in the first place? To read more about why Drake is falling back and his shots at Vanessa Bryant CLICK HERE TO READ THE FULL INTERVIEW .
