QUOTED: Drake deems himself the first person to successfully rap and sing

“There were people who incorporated melody before me, but I would deem myself the first person to successfully rap and sing.”

—The ever-modest Drake, explaining to London’s The Jewish Chronicle that although some people have done a little rapping and singing in the past, he’s the first one to ever really nail it. Somewhere Missy Elliott, Lauryn Hill, Cee Lo Green and a bevy of other artists are sighing (or doing this). [h/t Vulture]
