Drake Regrets Calling Out Some Of His Ex-Girlfriends By Name In His Music
With each passing day Drake inches closer to the inevitable conclusion of God’s Plan — Death. As do we all. However, God apparently has a thing for corny Canadian rappers who’ve somehow managed to overcome the odds and learned to walk again, so he rewarded Drake with endless wealth and, in his golden years, the gift of self-reflection. And so, in accordance with God’s Plan, at 36, Drake tells Lil Yachty for FUTUREMOOD’s A Moody Conversation series that he’s “kind of introducing the concept in my mind of a graceful exit.” From music, from music! And looking back on his storied career (in music, in music!) from the vantage of maturity and growth, he expressed some regret about the blatant misogyny evident in much of his work. Well, OK, not exactly. But he did say, “maybe I coulda done without, like, shitting on people for age or disrupting somebody’s life” by name-dropping his exes on wax.

Well, it was announced Tuesday the Dunkin Donuts crew is getting rid of the carb-heavy part of its name and will now just be known as Dunkin. Cue the outrage!
