Drake takes meanness to a new level with his latest shocking announcement

Drake announced his “The Anita Max Wynn Tour” will begin on February 9, 2025 in Australia, coinciding with Kendrick Lamar’s halftime performance at Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans.

The rapper’s recent challenges include mocking Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl selection, joining Nicki Minaj and Birdman as Jay-Z’s ambassador. Drake also took aim at The Weeknd, requesting that his music be turned off during streams, stating, “We’re the real Sixers, the real 6ix part. We don’t listen to that.”

Recent tensions extend to Drake’s responses to Metro Boomin’s criticism, with Drake posting cryptic messages about producer loyalty. He is also involved in social media exchanges with Future, suggesting strained relations despite their previous collaborations.

The tour announcement follows Drake turning down several Super Bowl performances, suggesting he prefers to control his own platform. Industry sources indicate extensive production plans, with shows scheduled in Australia, Europe and North America.

Drake addressed the dynamics of the industry during his live stream: “Rap music is weird right now anyway. I’m here, completely intact. Mind, body and soul. You need facts to get me out. Fairy tales won’t do that.”

Concert promoters are projecting record ticket sales, citing Drake’s streaming dominance and international appeal. The tour will feature material from ‘For All The Dogs’ alongside his extensive back catalogue.

Marketing strategies emphasize Drake’s independent stance, positioning him against industry convention. Social media engagement shows strong fan support for his confrontational approach.

The tour dates coincide with several major hip-hop events, including Kendrick’s performance at the Super Bowl, suggesting deliberate scheduling to maintain media presence.

Recent collaborator tensions, including disputed features and production credits, point to Drake’s growing isolation from former allies while maintaining commercial success.

Industry analysts note that the timing of this tour could escalate existing rivalries, particularly given Drake’s pattern of addressing conflicts through performance scheduling and social media.
