You know you’ve made it once one your appendages has its own Twitter account, and Drake has officially made it.

The latest fake Twitter account to catch a following, “DrakesKnee” popped up on the micro-blogging site hours after Drake fell on stage Friday night (July 31) at the America’s Most Wanted tour stop, re-injuring his torn ACL.

The spoof account tweets in rhyme from the perspective of the Toronto rapper’s knee, with hilarious lyrics like, “the floor I slipped up on it though/be back after surgery so/be happy I ain’t shoot my leg/like the homie Plaxico.”

A representative from Drake’s camp has denied to XXLMag.com that the rapper is managing the account. Another Young Money phony, “NickiMinajBoobs,” also popped up on Twitter Sunday evening (August 2).

According to an August 2 post titled “Angels and Demons” from Drake’s blog, octobersveryown.blogspot.com, he’s undergoing surgery this week.

“I am about 2 hours away from Toronto, CA where I will be spending the next chunk of time recovering from a surgery that I now must have,” the post reads. “I embarked on this tour with a torn ACL, MCL, and LCL and due to the events that happened the other night Lord only knows what other damage I have done.”

XXL’s 12th anniversary issue hits newsstands August 11th.

Brooklyn rapper/actor Mos Def recently announced his plans to produce a documentary about obscure 1970s punk band, Death.

In the new issue of Filter magazine, The Mighty Mos briefly discussed possibly collaborating with ex- Roc-A-Fella big Damon Dash to make the film about the black rock group, made up of three brothers from Detroit.

“It’s going to be great,” Mos told Filter. “These dudes were pre-Sex Pistols, pre-Bad Brains, pre-all that shit, and nobody knows them. I don’t understand how the whole world could forget them.”

While he remained tight-lipped about his role in the project, the Harlem mogul sang the Brooklyn MC’s praises when contacted by XXLMag.com.

“Anything Mos wants to do I’ll do cause I think he’s intelligent,” Dash said. “I think he’s a great ambassador for hip-hop. I personally don’t like to talk about things until it’s done. So when it’s done, when it’s ready—all I’m saying is that Mos Def is a really ill dude.”

Mos Def released his fourth solo album, The Ecstatic, in June.
