Drake: ‘I Deem Myself the First Person to Successfully Rap and Sing’
Humility, thy name is not Drake. The Canadian rapper, who is also Jewish on his mother’s side, is a big believer in his own talent, and he should be, since his albums debut at No. 1 and he has millions of fans, spread across both male and female fanbases.

Flo Rida Serenades Taylor Swift With ‘Wild Ones’ at 2012 Teen Choice Awards
Flo Rida was blinged out to the nth degree when he took the stage at the 2012 Teen Choice Awards tonight (July 22.) While he wore a sleeveless denim vest, it was both his mic and the mic stand that were encrusted with blinding jewels and his name. It was like brass knuckles on steroids.
