While, like we said, it was PartyNextDoor’s concert, Drake took control of the stage for nearly an entire hour at the end of his show. After PartyNextDoor finished his set packed with R&B hit after hit, and slow-burning deep cuts, the stage set was changed over, and the lights came back on, to reveal Drake standing in front of the microphone instead of him.
“I’m here tonight as a thank you to each and every one of you for all your years of unwavering support,” Drizzy expressed to his hometown crowd.
After performing a setlist of solely R&B songs, including 2015’s “Sweeterman,” his remix of Mississauga artist RamRiddlz, as well as his Snowd4y collab, the Plain White T’s patois-laden cover “Wah Gwan Delilah,” live for the first time.
Then throwing it back with “Practice” from Take Care, “Connect” from Nothing Was the Same, plus “Finesse,” “Pipe Down,” and “Redemption,” and more, including the PND hit “Come and See Me,” Drake concluded with announcing his plans to team up with the first signee to his OVO Sound label.
“On behalf of me and Party, we’ve been working on something for y’all,” Drake said to the crowd. “So, you get the summer over with, do what you need to do. I know all you girls are outside. When it gets a little chilly, PartyNextDoor and Drake album will be waiting right there for you.”
