Drake sits down with MTV News’ Rob Markman and explains why he pushed back Take Care, the tour and the role schools played into his decision, the reason why he’ll hit the cities with his "day one" fans, and why his new tour in January 2012 will be the total opposite of what everyone else is doing.

After the jump, Drake explains his work with The Weeknd, the active role he’s playing in The Weeknds’ career, and why he’s one of the most talented R&B artists.
