Drake 'Disgusted' With 'Evil Press' After Rolling Stone Kanye West Controversy


Drake Disses ‘Rolling Stone’ For Cheating Him Out Of Cover With Philip Seymour Hoffman’s Heroin Death

 Don’t diss Drake. The Canadian rapper lashed out at Rolling Stone magazine for putting the late Philip Seymour Hoffman on the cover after his heroin overdose and called the press “evil” for the slight and also claimed he never commented on  Kanye West’s Yeezus album.

He took umbrage with the fact that the magazine, which has often been criticized for no longer covering music, replaced him on the cover with the actor following his tragic death.

 “I’m disgusted with that. RIP to Phillip Seymour Hoffman (sic). All respect due. But the press is evil,” Drake Tweeted on Thursday.

Drizzy also claimed that Rolling Stone, who he asked to “be sure your tape recorder gets everything,” wasn’t accurate with what he said about  Kim Kardashian’s fiancé and baby daddy’s album.

 “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,” he wrote.

The interview reads: “There were some real questionable bar on there. Like that ‘Swaghili’ line? Come on, man. Even Fabolous wouldn’t say some sh*t like that.”
So now Drake says he’s finished talking to the press.


 “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.”

48Ytv's Review on Tiwa Savage's 'Love In Yellow' (Score 8/10)


Tiwa Savage's latest release ' Love in yellow' is this year's Valentine must listen to music. It's racy, up beat, club dance and restaurant listen to music. Produced by Spellz, this track defines the versatility of Tiwa's music class. There are a few artistes in Africa is in the public domain that can back a track which should turn heads of music moguls around the world. Tiwa, we need more of these please. Some would opine that 3:11s in duration is too short. I disagree. It's tongue in cheek inviting you for more. (48Ytv Score - 8/10)

2014 HIT MUSIC - DJ Spinall ft Burna Boy – Gba Gbe è (Score - 9/10)


This is surely going to be a massive 2014 hit. DJ Spinall's Gba Gbe è featuring Burna Boy is a formular that has worked well. It reminds me of a 9ice track in his hey days. The beat is melodious to the near point of addiction. It is a song you will mime to without prompt. Never mind its sung in Nigeria's native Yoruba dialect. Its Afro Beats at its best. I pray the official video is not ruined with an over elaboration of video effects involving scantily dressed 'run-girls'. Keep it clean and you have a massive hit for years to come. 48Ytv score - 9/10
