Drake's Australian visit has been a whirlwind of parties and performances, seemingly an attempt to escape the shadow of Kendrick Lamar's Grammy victories and his scathing diss track. As Lamar preps for the Super Bowl halftime show, where he might choose to continue his lyrical jabs, Drake prepares for a sold-out concert in Melbourne. Australia finds itself at the center of this rap rivalry, with fans eager to witness how the drama unfolds.
Drake is in Australia and his first week has been very Drake. There have been trips to Nobu, shirtless selfies at the hotel pool and, of course, his now infamous intimate gig at a private Melbourne club for a handpicked crowd, which naturally included 25 Miss Universe contestants and a strict no-phone policy.
You likely know the song, given it has been streamed over a billion times. It features several accusations that Drake sleeps with underage girls, not to mention the funniest music scale joke in rap history: “Probably A Minor!”swept all five of its nominations, including song and record of the year, and with each victory, the entire crowd - even Beyoncé! - got to their feet and enthusiastically sang along.last year.
If there were a Grammy for putting on a brave face, Drake would be a shoo-in, but what makes this all so interesting is that it’s playing out on our shores. Having to remind people you’re alive is usually a concerning sign for a celebrity, no less a rapper who, ironically, lives and dies on their reputation.
