Drake's making "headlines" for the all the wrong reasons.
The Canadian rapper is joining fellow artist J. Cole in apologizing for an offensive lyric about autism the latter contributed to Drake's song "Jodeci Freestyle" after taking heat from special interest groups representing those affected by the developmental disorder.
"I share responsibility and offer my sincerest apologies for the pain this has caused," wrote the hitmaker on his website. "Individuals with autism have brilliant and creative minds, and their gifts should not be disparaged or discounted. This was a learning lesson for both of us, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to try to right this wrong. J. Cole and I believe that it is the right, responsible, and respectful decision to remove the lyric from the song."
