Canadian rapper Drake has announced that the cancelled Young Money Reunion concert is back on, after a negative COVID-19 test.
The rapper taking to his official social media handle on Thursday 4th August 2022, stated that the earlier cancelled Young Money Reunion concert after receiving a negative Covid-19 test, will still hold, and on Saturday 6th.
He said:
“Negative test…positive outcome. This was the only date available until the fall and because the family is so solid everybody is flying back in to make it happen for you all SEE YOU SATURDAY YOUNG moulaa,” he said.
The show, which featured Nicki Minaj and Lil Wayne, was scheduled to take place on August first. The reunion concert was a part of the October World Weekend Festival, a five-day music event happening in Drake’s hometown of Toronto, Canada.
Drake had posted to his Instagram story to announce the cancellation, and to apologize. He had told fans in the post to expect a reschedule on the “SOONEST date possible.”
The October World Weekend saw Lil Baby and singer Chris Brown performing on the first and second day of the festival, with a heavy presence of Canadian artists.
The postponement marks one of many to take place in Canada, from Canadian musicians. Justin Bieber had to axe several Toronto shows due to illness back in June. Singer The Weekend also had to cancel shows due to the Rogers network outage.
