Overview
Before jumping the pond for Australia's Future Music festival, Canadian hip hop force Drake will stop by Auckland's Vector Arena for one show only.
Drake first rose to prominence as the character Jimmy Brooks on Canadian teen drama Degrassi: The Next Generation. Whilst appearing in the show, he released several mixtapes which caught the attention of Lil Wayne, who eventually became his mentor and signed him to Young Money Entertainment. With five million album sales, a Grammy, and collaborations with Beyoncé, Jay Z, Alicia Keys, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj and Kanye West under his belt, Drake has become somewhat of a phenomenon. His unavoidable presence has also spawned an endless amount of GIFs, memes and most recently an uncanny number of Halloween copycats.
His Auckland appearance will be Drake's first ever visit to New Zealand. The show production has been boasted as "nothing short of spectacular", featuring pyrotechnics, fire, lasers, extensive lighting.
He will be joined by Georgia rapper 2 Chainz.
