The rapper’s career-spanning set in New York City saw him revive older cuts and tease a joint tour with his ‘Her Loss’ collaborator. DrakeĀ performed a career-spanning SiriusXM concert at the Apollo Theater in New York City on Saturday night (January 21), while teasing a new album and tour and bringing out guestsĀ DipsetĀ andĀ 21 Savage. During the mammoth set, Drizzy performed tracks from all seven of his solo albums. Those included āKaraokeā fromĀ āThank Me LaterāĀ andĀ āTake CareāĀ cut āOver My Dead Boyā ā both of which previously hadnāt been performed live since 2015. An even rarer surprise came in the form of the 2010Ā TimbalandĀ collaboration āSay Somethingā, performed for the first time in more than a decade.
Elsewhere on the 40+ strong setlist were the likes of āMarvinās Roomā, āOverā, āHYFR (Hell Ya Fucking Rightā, āStarted From the Bottomā, āNo New Friendsā, āEnergyā, āGodās Planā, āHold On Weāre Going Homeā, āIn My Feelingsā, āOne Danceā and āPassionfruitā. The stage transformed throughout the evening with various set changes, from his childhood bedroom, to a record label boardroom, to a Harlem deli market.
Key takeaways from the evening included, while joined onstage with 21 Savage, Drake teasing a joint tour. āWeāre gonna be out on the road this summer,ā he told fans. He also indicated a 2023 solo album could be on the way. Drakeās most recent solo album arrived last year with āHonestly, Nevermindā. In aĀ three-star review,Ā NMEĀ called the record āan unexpected elevation from the bland trap, R&B remakes and Drakeās melancholic to love we heard last time aroundā, comparing it favourably to 2021āsĀ āCertified Lover Boyā.
