The record-breaking Canadian rapper is making it rain in the desert
Tourists typically flock to Las Vegas with the hopes of winning a fortune. However, the casinos this weekend were overshadowed by Drake, because his concert treated the attendees better than any of the tourists who waste their life savings with the hope of earning enough money to achieve a dream lifestyle. A Drake concert these days appears to be like gambling; and no, it isn’t because of the once-in-a-chance to listen live to Drake sing the catchy songs on the radio such as “God’s Plan,” or “In My Feelings.” Even though Drake sang at his September 2nd concert “God’s Plan,” and “Nice for What,” he created a literal blur during his “It’s All a Blur” tour by singing a couple verses of these songs and swiftly singing the next song without giving his guest a chance to enjoy listening to the entirety of the track. The real reason for attending his concert feels like a now or never opportunity from the lavish gifts Drake provides to his participants. At his September 2nd concert, Drake handed $50,000 to his fan; this same person spent his furniture money to attend that concert. This lucky duck won the lottery by gaining recognition by Drake for spending his furniture money to see his concert. Unlike other enthusiasts who spent their life savings to see their idol and don’t even get acknowledged by the record-breaking icon, this fortunate person hit the jackpot by winning $50,000 to pay for their furniture that they could have bought if they did not attend the concert.
The Vegas September 2nd concert gained attention not because of the artist’s music, but rather extravagant spending. Drake’s ability to perform his beloved songs heard on the radio have declined. He wore bizarre outfits as in an apron during “Her Loss” that left his observers confused about his intentions as only cooks and serial killers wear aprons. His wardrobe is not creative, but rather questionable. Meanwhile, his previous outfit during his “Summer ‘16” tour left a memorable impression from its simple black color and yellow capital letters spelling REVENGE. He wore it while singing “Summer Sixteen” during his tour that had people thinking of Drake’s rhythm when he sang the verse “Looking for revenge.” Does Drake think that throwing out a $50,000 check makes his show interesting? Is his decline in having a creative wardrobe covered by him splurging on a Birkin bag to a random admirer?
Drake has a lot of supporters. From their money, the Billboard Hot-100 artist is giving back to his concert attendants in a similar way the slot machines are giving back to the tourists. But with the gifts, there are no jaw dropping performances that will have people talk about it. He provided a mouth watering offer to a concertgoer to impress his visitors. If the audience was left disappointed from Drake partially singing “God’s Plan” by switching the verses to not let the audience engage with the catchy chorus “She says ‘Do you love me?’ I tell her ‘Only partly,” they immediately forget about that disappointment. He really displays “God’s Plan” by giving a splendid reward to his followers as a way of saying his supporters attending his concerts are God’s plans. It is a way of them exciting themselves without having them only love their bed and mothers but also loving Drake by attending the concert. They hope to become the next fortuitous person and provide a lot of memorable energy. Drake pampering his fans might be the new feature of his concert to compensate for his atrocious wardrobe. Similar to betting, it keeps them drawn by hoping to be the lucky winner one day. After all, Drake giving ridiculously expensive presents will have more people purchase tickets to his upcoming concerts, and similar to a casino, it will increase his number of admirers for future gigs.
