Drake Calls Out Grammys Over False Promo

    Drake says he will not be performing at the Grammy Awards.

    During a commercial for the Grammy Awards, which aired during the Super Bowl last night (February 7), it was suggested that Drake would serve as one of the performers at the annual awards show.

    Following the airing of the commercial, Drake quickly turned to Twitter to set the record straight.

    “I am not performing at the Grammy Awards…but hey it’s the thought that counts,” Drake wrote in a tweet sent yesterday.

    According to the website for the Grammy Awards, the artists confirmed to perform include Kendrick Lamar, Adele, The Weeknd, Justin Bieber, and more.

    Although he’s not expected to perform at the Grammy Awards, Drake is nominated for a handful of Grammys. The awards he’s nominated for include Best Rap Performance, Best Rap/Sung Collaboration, Best Rap Song, and Best Rap Album.

    The Grammy Awards will air on February 15 at 8 PM EST.

    1. Grammys lied again. By the way, radio stations love drake while bitch west is essentially blacklisted from radio stations since 2009 when he rudely interrupted taylor swift just to praise another wack ass video from beyonce. Drake can drop an album without notice and can go almost gold 1st week while bitch west can spend months promoting an album and will be luck to do half of drake’s numbers. BTW, west is the one that’s trying to be drake by singing. Big difference is that he needs autotune while drake doesn’t.

      1. this is garbage trolling at least make it entertaining because idiots will believe that you believe what you are saying…and bitch west is terrible go back to the drawing board

      2. Once again, you’re spreading lies. Kanye isn’t blacklisted from any radio stations, they just love playing bullshit music. Nobody cares about the whole Taylor Swift thing anymore. And Kanye will always sell more than Aubrey. And how is KAnye trying to be like Drake when Kanye was singing first while Drake was still on Degrassi? It’s Drake who’s trying to be like Kanye. And Drake also uses Autotune.

      3. Its not just taylor swift but kayne’s actions and statements in general caused stations to blacklist him. Drake’s already outselling kayne in recent albums and will surprass him in no time.

      4. 1. Kanye’s music isn’t awful. 2. Nothing about what Kanye did at the VMAs warranted backlash and he wasn’t blacklisted. 3. Drake is not outselling Kanye at all. 4. Kanye has been making music long before Drake started doing music and he was singing first, so he wasn’t inspired by Drake, it was Drake who got inspired by Kanye.

      5. West was a crappy rapper before Drake appeared but once 2007 hit, he was inspired by drakes performance. He actually tried signing Drake but he refused.

      6. Uhhhh??? Hello that’s what the ROC is all about. Get on your knees, in front of a man, and throw the ROC symbol up. It’s like starting position 101 for good oral.

      7. No, Kanye was always a good rapper and he was already singing before 2007. What performance? Drake is obviously inspired by Kanye, not the other way around. And he never offered a deal.

      8. Sorry, but Drake too was 1 who walked into a door that was wide open as a singing rap artist, thanks to those who opened that door.
        Yeezy and Cudi started this shit.

    2. I’m glad Drizzy spoke up about this. It’s disgusting that the Grammys would try to increase their viewership by lying about Drake performing. Especially after they gave Mackelmore the Grammy, instead of Drake. Drake should have two best hiphop album Grammys. So many people try to profit off of Drake’s name, style and image.

    3. Man i like it when yall haters trash talk Drizzy coz wat u niggas doing is simply making ma nigga even more relevant,keep his name in ur bitch ass mouth and watch him sell more units than ur favourite rappers,dats the reason i will always keep sayin#DrakeIsReal#DrakeIsdope

    4. How many times do i have to state this. When you argue about who the best rapper is you can’t bring your personal opinions because opinions aren’t facts. You have to bring numbers and longevity to back up your claims. Drake has all this backing him up he is miles ahead of all the new school rappers numbers, popularity and longevity. Drake runs this rap game and it hurts for you hipsters to admit that. Thats why you have to talk shit and try to justify your hipster nerd opinions because deep down you know drake is the king of rap.

      1. SHUT THE FUCK UP WIT THAT GAY BULLSHIT! PULL DRAKES COCK OUTTA YER ASS AND SHOVE IT IT YER MOUTH, CHOKE AND DIE ON IT PUNK!

    5. Thank God that fake fruity pop singer aint gonna be there!! bitch ass fake drake won’t win any awards, he won’t be there to SING although I would love to see him get booed again!! LOL!! I would love to see diddy or anyone else bitch slap the shit outta him again. Kendrick Lamar gonna win all 11 Grammy’s and show the world what a true hip hop artist is. #DRAKEISFAKEDRAKEISWACK
