TAKE CARE: The Toronto Experience.

On Monday, November 14th, Drake had a meet and greet for the first 500 people to pre order his album.

Super determined, Midori and I set out to meet our favourite home town rapper.

By the way, his second CD is out in stores now! Get a copy and support our boy!

Camping out in an alley behind HMV since 10pm Sunday.

Started to rain around 2am. These homeless bloggers decided to make a 'tent' out of umbrellas. Not the smartest idea.

9:45 am, fifteen minutes until HMV opens. Fifteen minutes until we get our wristbands to meet Drake later on. Fifteen minutes of what I twitter hashtagged "#DrakeRiots".

"Love you, Aubrey Graham -- XO" 

Early Take Care release signed by your boy Drizzy Drake.

HEADLINES VIDEO

At 6pm today Drake premiered his video for Headlines, his first single off of Take Care.
Whole video is shot within the GTA.
Boy really does care about this city!
Jays fitted in the skydome (AKA Roger's Centre) bringing it back to So Far Gone...oh yeah and lets not forget the Cosby sweater.

We love Drake.

OVO FEST 2011

Let me just say that even though we did not do a concert review of this (in anticipation of our final summer recap), this video shows how epic this annual event was. Midori and I have joked about how we now are booked for Caribana weekend for life, but it's true. We went last year, went this year and plan to go every year since Drake puts on one fucking good show.


Without further adieu, here is the official video recap of OVO FEST 2011.

MSC 2 LSTN 2

On Friday July 8th, SBTRK had a show at Wrongbar in Toronto and he PUT OUT that night.
Hometown boy Drizzy-Drake showed up as a surprise guest to perform the Wildfire remix.
Although videos of this performance surfaced, none are of great sound quality. So here's the youtube stream of the Wildfire remix.
Enjoy.
