MAG COVER: DRAKE GETS SHARP FOR ‘GQ’ + B.T.S. VIDEO

March 15th, 2012

A dapper Aubrey “Drake” Graham posed in one of the three covers of ‘GQ’ magazine. In the April 2012 “Style Bible” issue, the oh-so-polished rapper talked about a couple things like how the rap game has evolved, his relationship with his father and how difficult it is for him to find musical inspiration now that his life has changed:

I’m trying to find the same feelings that I had for women when I had very little going on, which is tough. When I was in my mom’s house, I had nowhere to go, no real obligations. My girlfriend at the time, if she was mad at me, my day was all fucked-up. I didn’t have anything else. And that made for some of the best music, I think, to date. Records where I felt small. That feeling is hard to capture when you’re sitting out here in a space like this. It’s really difficult for me to find something that makes me feel small.”

Definitely feelin’ his style in the pics below. What do you all think?

    He looks great. And that’s HUGE that he’s on the cover of the Style issue of GQ. They must have missed that extremely awesome leopard bubble coat he wore in “The Motto”. And by awesome, I mean LAME. Hopefully, he never revisits that past. EVER.

    I love suit on him. very nice cut. It does look a little tight on his thighs in some pics. For some reason the grind on his face (on the cover) cracks me up… but he looks absolutely handsome.

    Wow!! Drake is looking REALLY good here. He’d make me take a 2nd look; which I rarely do…ha! But really, well-tailored, well-fitted suits look so nice on him. I encourage him to keep this look up – not necessarily constantly, but sporadically enough to give me the same reaction I have now when he wears a nice suit next – and I may view him in a new light :)

    Drake looks really great, the casualness of the last picture *sneakers/suit looks very good. Im a fan of his music and when your working to express yourself artistically and get to the plateau its hard to remain authentic. He’s at a different place now, certainly a different tax bracket and his experiences, and thus music reflects that. Though he wants to go higher/deeper but stay real/true/authentic to himself its almost like he should go into seclusion.
