Cash Money‘s newest signee, Drake, blogged about his recent on-stage collapse on Friday [click to read].
In a blog post titled “Angels and Demons,” Drake wrote about his disposition and situation. “This bottle of Opus One is low but my spirits are high my friends. I am about 2 hours away from Toronto, CA where I will be spending the next chunk of time recovering from a surgery that I now must have.”
Drake continued, elaborating on the severity of his injuries, while remaining optimistic. “I embarked on this tour with a torn ACL, MCL, and LCL and due to the events that happened the other night lord only knows what other damage I have done. On the bright side I will begin the reflecting and soul searching that its going to take to make this album and my outfit on the night I fell was crack.“
Although the 22-year-old rapper understands the gravity of the situation, he said he refuses to regret his decision to perform, much the way he refuses to change his style simply because of success. “I will forever push myself beyond the limits despite advice and recommendations given because even with this new found success I am still the kid who wanted this more than anything in the world.“
Finally, Drizzy assured fans he would to his hardest to keep working as if he’d never found success in the first place. “Its funny when I read comments from previous fans who have lost interest because of the radio play and exposure I have. I just want to assure anyone reading that nothing has changed on my end. I refuse to get comfortable, I refuse to fall in line and follow anyone elses formulas. I still work as if So Far Gone had never dropped and I’m still trying to figure out how I’m going to gain entry to this game.”
In related news, Lil Wayne asked fans on Saturday (August 1) evening at a tour stop in Nikon at Jones Beach Theater to pray for Drake, as he was set to have his surgery today.
