Kanye West's 'Drink Champs' interview with N.O.R.E. has been removed from Revolt and YouTube
In his apology, which came via a conversation with Hot97’s Peter Rosenberg, N.O.R.E. said, “Well the logic was the same way you guys are giving me the platform. I think you guys have love for me, you guys have respect for me, and you guys think that I should have a say. I have a relationship with Ye. When he was going through a lot of the things he was going through, he would call me and he would actually listen to me and take my advice.
So I felt I could control the situation. I felt that I could control the interview, and learned early on that I didn’t.”host also identified himself as a “journalist” adding, “As a journalist, you’re really not supposed to have an opinion…you’re supposed to let people talk. And my biggest critique onis ‘N.O.R.E., you always cut people off!’ And this is the one time I didn’t cut the people, didn’t cut ’em off, and everyone’s mad.
