DRAKE SORRY FOR R. KELLY STUNT AT BET AWARDS…
DRAKE SORRY FOR R. KELLY STUNT AT BET AWARDS…
After much scrutiny following his “Every Girl” performance at the BET Awards last Sunday which featured a bunch of lil’ girls including Lil’ Wayne’s daughter frolicking on stage to explicit lyrics, rapper Drake has broken his silence in an attempt to shut critics up. In a recent interview with Complex, Drake admits that the idea was terrible and has offered an apology to all who were offended. He says,
“That…was a terrible idea that I’ll never do to myself again. But I was being pressed from different areas to perform, and I think what really happened at the BET Awards is with the passing of Mike, the climate really changed, as far as the award show goes.” Adding,“I don’t think it called for us to perform “Every Girl” and “Always Strapped,” and I think it was an award show filled with tributes and music and these genuine heartfelt speeches. And to sort of climax out of a very tongue-n-cheek point, and then people misconstruing Wayne’s daughters and her friends coming out on stage — it was just timed very poorly and it definitely wasn’t planned like that, but with that being said, it is what is. I believe in Wayne and myself and it’s nothing we can’t bounce back from. To anyone who was offended, my personal apologies, it wasn’t intended to offend anybody.”

As for BET, after all the backlash they received they’re sorry too and plan to run an edited version of the show on Monday, July 6th. A rep tells AllHipHop,
“BET Networks deeply regrets the performance by Young Money at the BET AWARDS ‘09 (featuring Lil Wayne, Drake, Gudda Gudda and Mack Maine). Elements of the performance were unplanned and should not have happened.”

Tish, I second that. That is the main reason as to why I do not watch BET anymore. They have become a disgrace to the black race.

I used to love Drake, now it seems like every since he became friends with Lil Wayne, him and his music has fell OFF!!! He is aging at a very progressive speed, hell he may want to have a MJ chemical peel!!!
