The online world has been abuzz lately with the news that Canadian rapper Drake is set to appear on the cover of GQ Magazine’s first Style Bible issue, and the Drake ‘A Little Favour’ video shows a behind the scenes look at his shoot.
The magazine’s April issue will feature a photo shoot and candid interview with the rapper, but it doesn’t really get much more candid than the Drake ‘A Little Favour’ verse. While Drake is known for having a close friendship with rapper Lil Wayne, he admits to having slept with a few of the same women during the interview. His freestyle lyrics also reveal his plans to focus solely on his career, and to avoid being affected by other females in the industry.
