Houston, by way of Pittsburgh.
Jay too smart for that trap. Every interview he's done recently has been curated and controlled, resulting in a bunch of generic "you gotta work hard to succeed" answers.

A lot of black artists are seemingly realizing this. So much pop culture/hip hop media is focused entirely on click bait and driving resentment. You're gonna get asked about a past controversy, you're gonna be asked about unofficial relationship stuff, and you're gonna be asked about your money. None of these people are discussing music on any non-surface level so all you'll get is "who do you want to collab with." It's pure consumption bullshyt, driven by people more obsessed with building their own brands than doing their job. Elliott Wilson has a battery in his back specifically because he's building a brand. Any controversy, any click bait, any bullshyt he can generate is good for him - even if it's at the expense of an artist. So why would Drake or anyone walk into that buzzsaw?

The death of magazines and MTV has killed music journalism.

"White blogs" do the same thing, tabloids still exist.

This idea that only hip hop media is messy and out for clickbait is getting corny. Not when guys like Jay and Drake aren't necessarily going to reputable publications for real, insightful interviews.

I agree. Which is why I said "pop culture/hip hop media" does this.

Na
Cam and Mase would get a Drake interview before that bald bisexual Joe Budden

mad at Drake for doing a comedy thing... shut aaap man. you're boring.
that giggling dikksucker Elliott got a nerve. he got his Jay interview then actually got one from Drake when he actually had shyt to talk about

Cole does nothing (actually, hes got a Kevin Hart interview coming out)
Kendrick when he was with Top Dog wasn't even allowed to have interviews post Ferguson and copped out and "wrote" his own piece for his XXL instead of an interview.

no superstars like doing standard interviews anymore because of the clickbait headlines and videos that come from it
and if they do, theyre going for the Interview Magazine style were they get somebody they know to do the interview
If you call that white girl comedy your opinion doesn't matter.
You're a drake eater, stfu

"Aubrey Graham time?" lmao this dude is so fukking lame.

This dude is so mad that he's not getting the Hov treatment from Drake, to continue his career. Jay always looked out for Elliot, got him into all types of functions and played the favor game. Drake don't give a fukk. And to go further, neither do Cole or Kendrick. Elliott has completely struck out with that group in large part because he put all his eggs in the Drake basket. I remember when he used to dismiss Cole, or second guess Kendrick. Now everyone is thriving while this loser searches for relevance.

Drake should have been on Drink Champs...

They should have a special episode with him, Nicki, and Wayne.
