Drizzy Drama+T.I. Does XXL

In the hip-hop news of the day, folks were wilin' out at Drake's free NYC show to celebrate his album release yesterday.  There was so much ruckus and rioting and so man people that the cops shut down the concert before it began.

Drake issues a statement to his fans, and we've got that and video of the foolery when you read on...

No home training.  Folks were repotedly throwing chairs, tables, fighting, and the usual shenanigans that would go down at some free over populated ish like this.  I did hear folks were out there for about an hour and a half waiting for the concert to start.
Drizzy's statement:

As you know, Drake was set to perform at Paper Magazine's Sounds Like Paper concert series at the South Street Seaport tonight but the NYPD canceled the show - which also featured Ninkasonik and Hanson. This is the statement from Drake: "I am humbled by the crowd that showed up in support of my performance and the release of Thank Me Later. I love performing for my fans but unfortunately the show was canceled by the NYPD due to over crowding, leaving me without the chance to give my fans a real show. I'm thankful for the support that the fans have been giving me....I thank you now."

And T.I. is covering the July issue of XXL magazine. The King Uncaged is talking about those snitching allegations in his cover story:

“What people don’t take into consideration is the reason that I was eligible for certain agreements that they weren’t eligible for was because I made myself a useful member of society. Most muthafuckas catch cases and get time. My nigga, you wasn’t doing shit when you was out here, so wasn’t no reason for them to keep you out here. Please understand the G code that I learned from, if you speak out your mouth that a muthafucka is telling on somebody and you can’t come with indisputable, irrefutable facts to support that statement, that makes you the sucker,” T.I. said. “You are now in violation of the G code. And there ain’t nobody, nowhere in naan jail sayin’ I was on they paperwork.”
