Earlier today, NFL sources rebutted Mal's reporting that Drake has turned down the Super Bowl halftime show "four" times, insisting Drizzy hasn't gotten an offer since JAY-Z and Roc Nation took over selection for the show in 2019.
According to Elliott Wilson, that's just wrong.
The veteran Hip Hop journalist was initially skeptical of Mal's claim.
However, he's come to learn Hov did offer Drake the Super Bowl in 2020 and 2021, even though the two don't alway get along.
“I have some intel. 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?'” Wilson reported. “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 [Shakira] and The Weeknd one. These guys are rivals with each other, they’ve had their good times and bad times with each other. But businesswise, JAY-Z wanted Drake on that Super Bowl stage and he turned it down twice.”
Is this all making Hov look bad?
