Drake Says The Negative Comments Online Hurt His Feelings


Drake gave an interview to Paper magazine where he spoke about the negative comments people say about him online:
I definitely haven't said this before, but I stopped going on a computer. I have a problem where if I go read a hundred positive things about me and there's one guy in there who says 'I hate Drake' that's the one I pay attention to. I think that's a common problem. Negativity hurts us more than positivity helps us. I asked about 10 or 20 people around me, 'When's the last time you went on a website and commented on something, like a song dropped and you went on and said, 'That song is hot' or 'That song is terrible?' And everyone I asked around me, whose opinions I respect, the people I love, were like, 'I've never done that before.' And these are all level-headed, intelligent people whose opinion I respect, so I just started saying to myself, 'It takes a certain type of individual to really participate in a group discussion about someone else, especially if they're going super hard with consistent hate.
'Ole boy has a point!

But, ya know....YOU chose this life. It comes with the territory.
