Young Money's Drake has stepped up to clarify his stance on the upcoming Drake's Homecoming: The Lost Footage amid handfuls of reports.
Drizzy hopped onto his Twitter page to provide an update on the flick and said music executive James Prince is also not standing behind it.

Check out these additional reports on the flick on the next page…
Despite separating his association to the movie, new reports claim he initially signed off on the production.
We’ve seen the contract which states he was paid $15k for the performance … and if footage from the concert was used for any future projects — like a movie — Drake would get 15% of the profits. A rep for Drake says he only puts “out music and video/film that is of the highest quality” … and he just wanted fans to know he had nothing to do with actually producing this film. (TMZ)
This week, Drake dished on his disassociation with the film.
The Drake Homecoming film is not something OVO or Drake have any part in. I feel it is my responsibility to inform and protect my fans.

Buzz behind the flick emerged online around mid-February.
Featuring never before seen footage from his 2009 show at Toronto’s Sound Academy, the movie takes places well before he signed to Lil Wayne’s Young Money label. The movie also contains interviews from Bun B and Jas Prince, who discovered Drake and took his music to Wayne. (Complex)
