Finally it was time for the man of the hour – Drizzy Drake to take the stage! The curtains rose and Drake started off with “Tuscan Leather,” followed by “Headlines, “Crew Love,” and then brought it back to “Tuscan leather.” After a brief break to tell the audience about his background, Drake performed “Wu-Tang Forever,” “Own It,” “Connect,” “Pop That,” “No New Friends,” “No Lie,” “I’m On One,” “Versace,” and then he stopped to tell fans he was working on his birthday so he didn’t really have a party. He dedicated this show to being his birthday party and said “since tonight is my birthday party I can’t do it alone” and then Busta Rhymes appeared on stage and preformed “Put Your Hand Where My Eyes Can See.”

Next, Drake invited Future to the stage where the two preformed “Love Me” and Future got the crowd amped with “Sh!t” and leaves fans for the last time with “Same Damn Time.” Drake then started “Pound Cake,” leading into “Motion” and then “Come Thru where Jhené Aiko appeared singing along with Drake. They both sing and “Come Thru transitioned to “From Time.” Drake and Jhene leave the stage to Drake’s DJ where he played snippets of some more fan favorites and a piece of a new unreleased song, “Forever”.

Drake returned to the stage to “Hold on, We’re Going Home” where a girl appeared and he sang to her. He later preformed “Too Much”, “The Language”, and “305 To My City”. Next, a huge circle platform appeared from the sky and the crowd went wild. Drake pans through audience members giving shout outs and says to fans “I’m not the type of artist to stay on stage in my own zone, take me up” he rises level by level talking to audience members before he returns to the stage to introduce A$AP Ferg. Ferg preformed “Shabba” and the A$AP mob appeared including A$AP Rocky who stayed on stage to preform “F*ckin Problems” with Drake.

As the show wound down, Drake preformed “The Motto,” “HYFR,” “All Me,” and stopped the music after “Started from the Bottom.” Next, there was an amazing fireworks display before the show came to an end.
