Now that the Harry Potter franchise is coming to an end, one star is looking to use his free time to launch his career as a rapper. Tom Felton, who plays villain Draco Malfoy in the flicks, has proclaimed that he wants to begin recording under his rap alias.
“I was thinking of doing some N-Dubz-style stuff. I am looking to get into the grime rap UK scene,” he told The Sun. “I’m going to change my image – backward caps, the lot. […] It’s still under wraps so I can’t really talk about it.”
Though it’s unclear if the actor was simply being facetious, he has struck a recording deal with an independent label to put out his first album. In the meantime, the 23-year-old is promoting the final Harry Potter film, Deathly Hallows: Part 2, in theaters this Friday.
[July 11]
UPDATE: As suspected, Tom Felton has denied that his comments were serious and that he has no intentions of starting a rap career.
“Apparently I’m going to take the I’m UK grime scene by storm. I have no idea what they’re talking about,” he told The Hollywood Reporter. “I can only think that it was an attempt at dry wit that went completely over their head. I don’t know. Needless to say, I’m not planning on taking the UK grime scene by storm.”

DRAKE-O — That’s what this kid’s alias really should be.
Lmfao That’s real

I bet you if Wayne singed him, you sheep would listen to him hard. If a Canadian kid that was Jewish that played in Degrassi came into the rap game people would shun him … unless he got the Wayne co-sign. Fuckin’ followers.

Black people are more racist than whites nowadays.
He can’t be any worse than Odd Future, except his gimmick will be Dr. Seuss with a British accent, instead of Odd Future’s gimmick of Dr. Seuss with random curse words thrown in for controversy.

Does anyone ever actually READ the article!? It seems you glance over the headline, see the picture and start mashing on the keyboard – fuckin’ half-wits.
cmon hhdx, how many times have you misread or misunderstood someone saying some bullshit and made an article out of it, yall are slowly becoming less of a news website and more of a gossip tabloid website,
steven you do not deserve a job as a writer, you blow it every single week on so many levels
agreed..hhdx get me on your payroll ASAP. Its not too late to save this site from horrid, below average writers.
co-sign. ive seen this shit so much that it’s becoming a regular hobby among HHDX writers….mainly, from Steven. smh
anyone could have told you it wasnt true, why you chose to post it regardless is just pathetic, you are terrible at what you do
You can’t defend the the magical lines I’m deliverin’ / I’m a fuckin’ evil genius like the heir of Slitherin / Harry Potter is a queer ass bloke / always runnin’ and hidin’ under his invisibility cloak
This hip hop shit is becoming a white man’s joke!
Why the fuck is this news?
Fuck you, Steven!
Stop HATING on WHITE rappers!! Just cuz he’s white you automatically think he’s going to be whack!!? It seems like blacks are more discriminant nowadays. Especially in hip hop.SMH
