Drake is using some of his downtime to attend to his blog. On Thursday, the “Best I Ever Had” rapper took to his computer to discuss fame and rumors about his sexuality. Drake writes, quote,

 

“People often ask me the craziest part about becoming famous and I’ve never had an answer until yesterday. You’ll spend half of your time defending yourself and the other half trying to stay sane resulting in you being forced to find time to be creative.”

 

Recent rumors spreading through the internet have suggested that Drake is gay. While he didn’t specifically address such speculation he did write, quote, “I am just urging a generation to understand that in order to have anyone of any significance in our lives that we can look up to there will be things that we must look past.”
Drake is currently resting up at his home just outside of Toronto. He had to leave Lil Wayne’s “Young Money Presents: America’s Most Wanted Music Festival” earlier this summer when he reinjured a knee that suffered torn ligaments. Drake’s debut studio album, “Thank Me Later,” is now slated to arrive on Valentine’s Day 2010. Shot out to Drake for the store …

The “Successful” music video shoot went down over the weekend in Toronto, Canada. I hope this video is better than “The Best I Ever Had” . 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.

“That career move was very important to me,” he explained at the America’s Most Wanted Music Festival kickoff in Scranton, Pennsylvania. “We’ve done such a great job of building it all up. It’s kind of like people were getting this impression of me that I’m never gonna make a mistake. I’m not made of Teflon. I’m gonna do things for myself sometimes, as opposed to what people want me to do.”

“Successful” is my favorite song from Drakes mix tape…

 So it appears those rumors that Kanye West and Amber Rose called it quits are false.  According to the good folks over at Deliciously Vintage boutique in Chicago, he stopped by their store this past weekend and bought a ton of chic women’s vintage clothing and accessories. When he was asked who he was buying the clothes for, he answered “You know who this is for! She’ll be rocking it in Paris, Watch!”.  The two were also spotted on the set of Drake’s “Best I Ever Had” video shoot yesterday and according to Honey Mag on twitter, Kanye & Amber are still together. she brought her “baby” dinner… she knew he was working hard” Woop to that!

Drake may be downplaying romantic reports about him and Rihanna, but the two artists are definitely working together. In a recent UK interview, the Canadian rapper admitted to writing songs for the Barbados-born singer. Drake told DJ Semtex, quote, “we’re coming with some special stuff.” The rapper was then asked about the status of his relationship with Rihanna, and he responded by saying, quote, “we’re young, just having fun and enjoying life, that’s all.” Drake and Rihanna have been the focus of tabloid reports since late May, when the “New York Post” reported the two were spotted kissing at a New York bowling alley. Drake, whose real name is Aubrey Graham, started his career as a child actor. He’s best known for playing Jimmy Brooks on “Degrassi: The Next Generation.” Musically, Drake’s single “Best I Ever Had” is climbing Billboard’s Hot Rap Tracks chart. The song currently sits at number two, just behind the Black Eyed Peas’ “Boom Boom Pow.”

Without even having a number-one hit under his belt yet, Drake is causing quite a commotion in the music business. Billboard.com reports several record labels have engaged in an all-out battle to land the 22-year-old Canadian-born rapper. Sources say Universal Motown and Atlantic Records are in on the action, which is being dubbed, quote, “one of the biggest bidding wars ever.” Insiders expect Drake to wind up at Universal Motown because of the label’s connection to the rapper’s current home — Lil Wayne’s Young Money Entertainment. However, one unidentified company has reportedly offered Drake a two-million-dollar signing bonus to sweeten the pot. Drake previously told Billboard.com, quote, “whatever label we sign to, it’ll be because they’ll add to what we’ve created on our own.” Drake, whose real name is Aubrey Drake Graham, has been gaining attention with his single “Best I Ever Had.” The track currently sits at number two on Billboard’s Hot Rap Tracks chart, just behind the Black Eyed Peas’ “Boom Boom Pow.” The rapper has also admitted to writing tunes for Rihanna.
