Video: Drake Performs “She Will/The Zone” @ Penn State
As I tweeted within Drake’s Club Paradise Show at Penn State, I told you guys about him doing a ‘The Zone/She Will’ mixed song on stage. Well, the video is finally here. The beginning of the video shows Drake singing a “Say My Name” cover by Destiny’s Child. As you can see his live vocals aren’t that bad.

GQ: Did it feel like a risk at first? (talking about going into the R&B genre)
Noah “40” Shebib: 100%.
GQ Magazine was privileged enough to sit down and grab a quick Q&A interview with Drake‘s go-to-guy, Noah ‘40‘ Shebib.

Drake Explains ‘Take Care’
GQ and Drizzy sit down to talk about his sophomore album, Take Care. In the interview Drake talks about the meaning behind the title.
GQ: You announced the title of this album, Take Care, with us back in December. What does it mean?
Drake: No one has actually asked me that yet. I came up with the name when I was on a bus in Birmingham, England, going to a show. “Take Care” is this thing we use in passing conversation to dismiss bullshit like, “Oh, you couldn’t make it on time? Oh, take care, take care.” We’ve always used that and then I really took so much care making this album. I knew I was going to go home and take longer than six months, I knew that I was literally going to take care of making this project and be attentive, be clear, be immersed in it. “Take Care” worked.
Drake talks about the Jay-Z/Lil Wayne beef after the jump.
