Drake Teases Young Money Reunion Show and London Edition of OVO Fest
Drake finished up his five-show run at the O2 Arena on Sunday night with some major announcements, one being a potential Young Money reunion show in the U.K.
“This no word of a lie. I just got off the phone with Nicki and she told me to tell y’all hello. We might have to do something special, we might have to do some Young Money reunion shit out here this summer,” he said. “I might have to bring all my friends from America, all my friends from Canada, the whole OVO.”
This announcement comes on the heels of Drake reuniting with fellow Young Money members Nicki Minaj and Lil Wayne.
Additionally, he told the crowd he’s planning to bring OVO Fest to London in the summer, as well as reveled he would be hitting the studio to finish up More Life.

Though a few were hesitant to take his word at face value given similar announcements that never panned out:

However you slice it, Drake’s Boy Meets World Tour is only six shows in and it’s already delivered some big highlights, including new music and special appearances from Young Thug and Travis Scott, the latter of which took a hilarious fall. The tour hits the First Direct Arena in Leeds on Wednesday.
