In a tweet, the Pet Shop Boys say Drake didn’t clear the use of lyrics from their 1986 classic “West End Girls” for use in the track “All the Parties” on his new album

the audacity of his stans saying this will give the pet shop boys more attention like they aren't fucking legends

[irajaxon]

it's like when kanye benevolently granted paul mccartney much needed exposure by featuring him in "fourfiveseconds"

I could understand if Kanye helped introduce his fans to Paul’s music, but it’s a bit of a stretch to say Kanye made Paul famous again.

Reminds me of back in the early 90’s, Guns N’ Roses did a cover of Live and Let Die, which was pretty popular. Paul had to tell members of his own family that he wrote the song, not GnR. Same thing happened when Puffy used a sample of Led Zepplin’s Kashmir, one of the Led Zepplin guys had to tell his kids that was one of his songs.

END HIM

And now he's saying he's going to take a year off because of his stomach? wtf is happening?

Anyway, Drake is an amalgam of all the worst traits of Toronto men.

[likeanunmadebed]

doesn't he take years off between albums anyways? headlines made it sound like he was disappearing for 5+ years

[my_moloko]

I wish he would disappear forever.

It must be exhausting being such a shit.

[teaaet]

I get his assumption that he would get away with this though. Why would anyone with taste ever listen to a Drake album?
