Apple Wants to Pay Drake $19 Million to Guest DJ on iTunes Radio
According to a report from the New York Post, Apple wants Drake to be a guest DJ when the revamped iTunes Radio service - a music subscription program - hits the air later this year. The company has reportedly been visiting music labels to make deals for free perks, including the rights to lyrics from publishers, ahead of its Worldwide Developers Conference next week. Apple has also approached Pharrell Williams and David Guetta who, should they sign on, will most likely demand a figure similar to that of Drake's: a cool $19 million. The service will cost $10 per month once a lengthy three-month trial expires.
