Following Mal’s claims that Drake had been asked to perform at the Super Bowl twice and turned the NFL down several times, hip-hop journalist Elliott Wilson says he did some research and found out that Mal’s remarks were true.
“I have some intel,” he said on a recent episode of The Bigger Picture. “I thought Mal was capping, I thought he was lying about Drake turning down the Super Bowl. That sounded wild. It was like, ‘Four times? Who turns down the Super Bowl that many times?”
“I have it on authority, multiple sources have told me that Drake has indeed turned down the Super Bowl. He actually turned down the first two [since JAY-Z’s NFL partnership] — the one in Miami and The Weeknd one,” he added.
Drake’s rival, Kendrick Lamar will be performing at next year’s Super Bowl and fans were outraged as Lil Wayne, who expressed he’d like to perform at the event, was snubbed.
