Original tale follows.
When Drake explained “It’s all a blur,” it’s possible he was talking about the scheduling for his new tour. The rapper quietly delayed the first shows of the It is All a Blur tour with 21 Savage this week. It was set to begin these days, June 29, in Memphis. That exhibit will now consider area on August 6, even though a July 1 demonstrate in Columbus, Ohio, has been rescheduled for Oct 9. That usually means the tour now kicks off approximately a 7 days later than it was meant to, on July 5 in Chicago, with little explanation. And it’s all taking place right after Drake and 21 presently delayed the begin of the tour the moment in April, pushing it from June 16 to July 29. Vulture has attained out to representatives for Drake, 21 Savage, and promoter Stay Nation for comment.

At that time, a rep for Drake claimed the delay was “in purchase to deliver the superior normal tour expertise our lovers expect and ought to have.” It’s unclear no matter if which is the case yet again — provided this is Drake’s 1st tour considering that that outing — or if Drizzy just needed to capture the NASCAR road race in Chicago this weekend.
