Drake Rock: The Interview
You've probably figured out that Male Perfection and Rock Hard Jocks are two of our favorite sites among the many sites we've reviewed this year at Jack Manly. This isn't just because of the beautiful men that appear on there, but because they are both sites that quite unique among online video sites. Naturally we were interested in the story behind these two websites so we went right to the source Drake Rock.
The result was an insightful and in-depth interview that Drake Rock was enthusiastic to provide. We've posted the interview in the Jack Manly Interviews section of our site. Honestly, we learned more than we thought possible because Drake was very open and detailed about Male Perfection and Rock Hard Jocks. Drake gave us a fascinating and fun look into his site and into the business of online entertainment and along the way we found out some surprising facts.
Here's are some sneak peeks:
JM: Obviously you didn't start this site in a vacuum. How did other sites affect your creative process in putting the site together?
DR: I’m an open-minded guy, and I’ve seen my share of porn. At different times over the years all porn started to look the same: undress, five minutes of oral, five minutes taking it in front, five minutes taking it in back, sometimes an alternate position, and then the cum shot. It got to the point that I was watching scenes only until they undressed, and then fast-forwarded to the next scene. I was bored with porn. There are only so many ways sex scenes can be filmed – the body only contorts into a finite number of positions.
Then it hit me – I like the tease. And you don’t get much of that in porn. (laughs) What I realized is that I had an infinite number of possibilities in the ways I could film the “tease”. And I knew I wasn’t the only person starved for more than just sex scenes.
Since there really isn’t anything else like Male Perfection, the site was more or less developed in a vacuum. I guess if I was influenced by anything it was more from the standpoint of “let’s break new ground” and I asked myself, “What have I never seen before?”
-------------------------------------------
Jack Manly: Obviously there are several guys from Male Perfection that appear at Rock Hard Jocks. Was it easy to get them to make the transition from "suggestive" to "explicit"?
Drake Rock: When I first opened Rock Hard Jocks I promised my members one thing: that the videos would contain the footage I couldn’t use on Male Perfection. In the first videos the guys are flaccid. Over time, the guys that we booked for Male Perfection started showing off their hard-ons without us prompting them to do so. Sticking with the “tease” concept on Male Perfection, some of the videos would show the hard-on for a split second at the very end and fade to black. Then members could see everything a few weeks later on Rock Hard Jocks.
Some of the guys we previously shot want nothing to do with full frontal nudity. Others have no problem with it so long as they don’t have to cum. A few have shrugged and said, “What ever you need, Drake.”

We hope you take the time to check out the interview and the two sites that we feel are very distinct departures from the majority of other sites.
