Drake Is Okay With Pirating Fans

Canadian hip-hop artists Drake encouraged fans to pirate his leaked album.

His second studio album Take Care will be officially released next week, but leaked tracks have already surfaced online.

In a response to the leak Drake tweeted:

“Listen, enjoy it, buy it if you like it…and take care until next time.”

Adding to the excitement Drake told Billboard that he’s actually a big fan of leaks.

“I look forward to leaks — knock on wood. I shouldn’t probably, but I do. Like I said, if it’s a reasonable leak, I look forward to it.”

Whether his record label agrees with this message is doubtful.
