According to the Rap-Up, Drake reveals in the current issue of Rolling Stone his love for cookin’ up in the kitchen.
“I want to drop this album, then another, and then take a break to do film and study culinary arts.” Once he masters his skill, the aspiring chef plans to put it to good use. “Then I’m gonna open a restaurant in Toronto. Hopefully my name will hold more weight by then.”
Let’s just hope his album is a dish worth waiting for. *rimshot*

Contrary to popular belief, not every rapper was in Cali last night. The legendary Big Daddy Kane took it back to his hometown BK and tore down a free show. Even 50 Cent’s manager was impressed. Ain’t nothin’ like the old school.
