With the government shutdown now over, citizens of this weary nation can turn their eyes toward the week's other big dust-up: Drake versus Future. According to Hot 107.9, the rappers have apparently buried their differences and will tour together. "Papers are signed, time to get that money again," Hot 107.9 disc jockey Beestroh said while announcing the news.
The backstory: On Monday, New York Post's Page Six reported that Drake had kicked Future off his North American tour after the 26-year-old rapper apparently dinged Drake's "Nothing Was The Same" album in an interview with Billboard.
"Drake made an album that is full of hits but it doesn't grab you," Future reportedly told the magazine. "They're not possessive; they don't make you feel the way I do. I want to make you want to fall in love."
Following the publication of that interview, Future said he was taken out of context. The quote, it should be noted, no longer appears in the original Billboard article.
Future was reportedly set to sue the Toronto rapper for $1.5 million in damages. Drake's North American tour continues in Pittsburgh on Friday.
UPDATE:
Future released a statement on Thursday confirming that he will be touring with Drake. According to MissInfo, his statement read, "I am set to continue as planned with Drake and Miguel on the 'Would You Like A Tour?' tour slated to begin on October 18th in Pittsburgh, PA. I’m looking forward to hitting the road this fall. Love4Life Honest."
