Drake’s OVO Fest blew fans away for another year in Toronto, this time with Drizzy literally bringing his city to the stage, by creating an amazing replica of Toronto’s CN Tower, which became a meme after the artwork for Drake’s Views album was released.
But in addition to the hours of great music and production, another highlight of the evening included a very unexpected surprise performance. For a very special performance of Drake’s track ‘Controlla’, rapper Tory Lanez joined Drake for an epic live remix. While the two have famously had bad blood in the past, it appears that all is well in the 6.
Check out some fan footage of the performance below.

In anticipation of his forthcoming third studio album, PARTYNEXTDOOR 3, OVO Sound singer/producer PARTYNEXTDOOR has released his newest record, ‘Don’t Do It For You No More.’ While the new track isn’t off PND’s forthcoming project, it’s certainly a nice bonus to tide fans over until P3 drops August 12th on OVO Sound. ‘Don’t Do It For You No More’ was produced by Bizness Boi, Th3ory and Soufwest and it should definitely last you for the next week.
