Future made the statement in the interview:
"Drake made an album that is full of hits but it doesn't grab you. They're not possessive; they don't make you feel the way I do. I want to make you want to fall in love."After the interview was publish Future tried to retract his statement, claiming the statement was a misquote. Like all celebs Future took to twitter to clear the air,
Respect to Billboard, disappointed on being misquoted..always love for my fam Drizzy Drake

Apparently the tweet came too late. Word already reached Drake and he was not pleased. Sources claim Drake told his manager he immediately wanted Future fired from his upcoming tour.
According to Page Six:
Future was fired, but then negotiations started to bring him back late last week. But over the weekend, Future pulled out for good after Drake’s camp demanded he make financial concessions. Future, who was set to earn about $40,000 per gig, is set to file a lawsuit this week against Drake for lost wages, or about $1.5 million.
The rappers’ beef is the latest drama in Drake’s tour. Last month, about a dozen dates were pushed back and rescheduled.
Reps for both Drake and Future had no comment. A rep for Billboard told us: “We regret that miscommunication surrounding Future’s recent visit, one that seemed clear to us was on the record, may have caused any trouble for the artist.”Currently, the tour will continue without Future. Sources say singer Jhene Aiko will be replacing Future on the tour.
