“Run This Town” Was A Rihanna Track?

So what did Drake think of Hov’s new single?

“I think Jay made a great choice,” he said. “I think the ‘Run This Town’ song is phenomenal. I think Kanye kills that shit. I actually heard that song when it was a Rihanna track.”

Rumours say that Jay-Z replaced Drake with Rihanna and Kanye on the new track “Run This Town”, here’s what drake said:

“I don’t know who came up with that rumor to be honest, but I always knew what Jay’s first single was going to be,” the “Best I Ever Had” rapper told the BoomBox. “Me and Jay did a lot of work together. Maybe at one point he was considering doing it and someone got over-excited and put out a press release that I was going to be on the first single.”

Jay-Z also weighed in on the absence of Drake. “It’s very difficult to know what’s going to be my next single,” he explained to DJ Semtex. “I really just played a couple [potential] records and everybody ran with it. But I’m still making records.”
