For the ‘Canadian North Stars’ show, Drake welcomed Nelly Furtado (whose music he credited for having "changed my life so much") for a rare performance of her hits, including ‘Promiscuous’ and ‘I’m Like a Bird’.

The rapper has been having fun leaning into the nostalgia factor. Back in July, he joined the Backstreet Boys for a performance of ‘I Want it That Way’ during the band's stop in Toronto. Although the positive test puts a pause on Drake's plans, the rapper is on the tail of a busy year.

As per Deadline, his latest studio effort, the polarising dance-oriented ‘Honestly, Nevermind’, topped the Billboard 200 album chart. A single from the album that has 21 Savage as his featured guest, ‘Jimmy Cooks’, debuted at No. 1 on the Hot 100, his seventh No. 1 debut on the chart.
