I'm going to play devil's advocate

His last tour before this was 2019, Covid shut things down for 2 years

Correct me if I'm wrong but on his wiki page it says he didn't tour in 2022.

Before this current tour he hasn't toured since 2019, maybe he's just catching up?

Yeah, just what I was about to say. He didn't tour for 3 years and toured to do CLB and Honestly Nevermind

Now he's touring for all the dogs and her loss.

It doesn't seem that crazy to me. Wiki says it's his first North American tour in 5 years.

Buddens show should be titled "About Drake". It's crazy how much material he uses dude for

Eh. It's just what people is clippin' up right now cuz Drake is obv the hot topic right now and is an easy way to farm engagement. Especially for a pod that centers around music for the most part and then other lifestyle things.

Big tour with 21 Savage last year, lead into a big tour with Cole, and later this year he's touring with Travis overseas. I get why Joe would say that but Joe also has zero interest/knowledge about artists outside of rap or "black shyt." Ed Shereen's current tour has been going since 2022. It wraps up in SEPTEMBER this year. His previous tour was went from 2017-2019 and grossed nearly $800 million dollars off 260 shows.

Taylor Swift's Eras tour started last March, ends up DECEMBER this year. 152 shows.

Are these bad deals or an acknowledgement that it's not the 1990s anymore, where your label could recoup off album sales alone. If you're a massive artist you're gonna end up on a massive tour. Going back to rap...Kendrick's last tour started in June 2022 and didn't end until last month. The labels will announce a US tour and then add an overseas leg to it later. We weren't thinking about it since he was overseas but Kendrick was doing massive arenas in Japan and Mexico when Like That dropped. In short, Drake's tour schedule has no bearing on whether it's a good or bad deal. It's probably a good deal because he's being paid a shyt ton of money, can release albums whenever he wants, and basically has to tour (on and off) in two year increments until he satisfies whatever the agreement is.

Drake better get some real abs for this tour. He's about to be burnt.

Maybe bring a Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt on the road and train

If you’re trying to rub baby oil on his abs after every show you should probably just call his management

"Nobody tours that much"

What does Joe budden know about touring?

Being dead serious.

Cause his tours had to be straight up struggle east coast coast status.

Has he ever done a tour where he doesn't have to share a red room inn room with multiple people?

Has Joe budden ever done an arena solo?

How u wish you could talk to somebody you gave an LP of diss records 2 :russ:
