When we first interviewed Drake a year ago, he was the new kid on the block who had just dropped a little mixtape called So Far Gone. But after owning 2009 with an unexpected string of hits, Drizzy is now the man to beat. It’s only right that Complex features Drake on the cover of our first issue of 2010. It’s the dawning of a new decade!

The February/March issue officially hits stands on February 8, but we’re giving you a chance to read the full story now. Check the link below to hear Drizzy speak on his relationship with Wayne, competition with newcomers like J. Cole, getting inspired by ex-girlfriends, and the details on his debut Thank Me Later.

Story after the jump! It’s pretty lengthy.

Be sure to attend the event and maybe he’ll debut something new? Who knows :) – Check out the details on the flyer above.

P.S. Drake & K-Os will be touring in the USA/Canada (April 5 – May 9) after Thank Me Later’s release. Stay tuned for a list of tour dates + purchase details. It’ll be cool to be away from home again, right Drizzy?

Check out Drake’s feature in the latest SPIN Magazine. He was honored as the Rapper of the Year for 2009 and got other honors such as being #10 on the Top 20 best Songs of 2009 for Successful ft. Trey Songz and #9 on the Top 40 Best Albums of 2009 for the retail So Far Gone. Yes, yes, we know, So Far Gone is an EP… not an LP. Nonetheless, that’s what it is. Check out the photos below.

Destined for greatness, he’s that close.

For some reason, these MTV videos don’t like to work so click here to watch it if it fails.

One of the premier cuts from Timbaland’s Shock Value II is the Drake-featuring “Say Something.” The track sounds more like Drake with Timbaland than the other way around, and Drizzy’s takeover has the super-producer’s full blessing.

“I feel that’s the hottest record Drake got,” Tim said. “That’s the hottest hook I heard him on since the ‘Best I Ever Had.’ That’s his lane. That’s how I feel. He’s the only one that could get away with that slow-feel music that makes you feel like it was fast. It seems like Drake, all day. Ah, man. When Drake wrote to it, he had to call me and say, ‘I wanna make sure you like this hook. Because the way I’m rapping to it, I feel like it was my record. I had to realize this was not my record; this is a feature you want me to be on.’ I had to catch a grip and say, ‘Get it right. This is your record.’ ”

This one is quite interesting. Check out this old Fito Blanko song featuring Drake that they decided to release today. You can tell it’s old by a few recycled bars. It is called “Mambo” which I assume is a Spanish dance? I don’t know lol. Can someone translate this song for us? Anyways, this is what Drake sounds like rapping in Spanish. OYE MAMI! Shouts to alllllll my spanish Drake fans!
