Drake taps into his gangster side in his new short film Please Forgive Me. More inside…
We know Drake for wearing his heart on his sleeve and his emo lyrics in his songs. But, Drizzy is tapping into his gangsta side for his highly anticipated Please Forgive Me short film, released exclusively via Apple Music.
The Young Money rapper teamed up with music video director Anthony Mandler (“Over,” “Find Your Love,” and “Miss Me”) for the new action thriller where Drizzy transforms into a gun-toting killer. The short film, takes tracks from the platinum-selling Views, was shot over the course of a week in Soweto, South Africa.
The clip follows Drizzy and his on-screen girlfriend as they come up with a million-dollar tryst as a part of a plan to take off with the money. Their scheme doesn’t go as planned and a gun battle erupts with Drizzy firing off automatic weapons as he taps into his killer side.
While it was an entertaining mini-movie, it was a bit weird watching Drake shoot and kill people. We’re so used to him being his super emotional self and all.

Over the weekend...
Drizzy rocked the stage at the sixth annual iHeartRadio Music Festival, hosted by Ryan Seacrest, at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. He dropped his verse on Fetty Wap's "My Way," "Controlla," and, of course, his radio hit with (his rumored boo) Rihanna"Work."
Rih didn't make any surprise appearances since she was busy rocking the stage at the Global Citizen Festival in NYC.
