Drake has pulled out of his October World Weekend festival after testing positive for COVID-19. He had been due to perform tonight as part of a Young Money reunion show, which will be rescheduled “to the SOONEST date possible,” according to his Instagram Story.
“I will keep the city posted and share the new date whenever we have it locked,” he wrote. “Until then I hope everyone stays safe and healthy and I love you all I am so sorry for letting you down on our weekend together and the moment I test negative I will give you everything I got on stage (except the covid).” He finished the message with the crying face emoji.
Last night, Drake kicked off the concert series at the History venue, bringing out fellow Canadian Nelly Furtado during his set for live renditions of “Promiscuous” and “I’m Like a Bird.”
In June, Drake’s Honestly, Nevermind became his 11th album to hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 album chart. He has since shared a video for “Falling Back” and joined Backstreet Boys to perform “I Want It That Way” in Toronto.
