Drake + The Backstreet Boys Perform ‘I Want It That Way’ During Toronto Tour Stop

    OVO frontman Drake is continuing his reign as Mr. Everywhere Man in his hometown of Toronto during the Fourth of July holiday weekend. On Saturday (July 2), Drizzy pulled up to The Backstreet Boys’ DNA World Tour and appeared onstage with all five members of the seasoned pop group as they performed their era-defining hits.

    Before joining BSB to perform their hallmark anthem “I Want It That Way,” Drake recalled an early memory of courting a teenage crush to the ballad, crediting the group with helping him feel “cool” for the first time.

    “She asked me if I would dance with her and it was the first time I felt acknowledged, it was the first time I ever felt like I had a shot at being cool,” he said. “I want you to make some noise, I want you to sing this song as loud as you possibly can. Like I said, this is one of the greatest songs in music history. I’ll be onstage for it. I’ll try to sing along, too. It’s called ‘I Want It That Way.'”

    Drake rocked a fresh new braided hairstyle coupled with a t-shirt paying homage to Master P’s incarcerated brother C-Murder while vibing out and two-stepping with BSB during his time on stage.

    Following the release of Drake’s chart-topping dance album Honestly Nevermind, he’s been on somewhat of his own unofficial publicity tour of the United States.

    1. Nothing says the stagnation of black people like a rap forum. Nigs so stuck in one position they can’t have anything but ‘hardcore street shit’. No wonder so many others look at us like shit.
      When rap is no longer the main genre, I hope we never get it back

      1. Rap is on its way out. Rap is currently where rock was in the 80s. Still holding on with watered down music compared to previous decades that just doesn’t sell as well. Happens to every genre. Thank god to be honest. These newer generations will keep trying to milk every last penny out of it until it’s finally put out of its misery.

    2. Drake is number one Canadian king. Great business move by papi. Good way to bounce back from those false low sales numbers. I’m his accountant so I know.

      1. You aren’t an an accountant. If you were where did you get your MBA? What certifications do you have because as an accountant, you’re required to have certain certifications in order to work in different areas. If you can’t answer this question then you’re full of shit.

          1. WHILE YOU DON’T NEED AN MBA TO BE AN ACCOUNTANT, YOU DO NEED THE SAME AMOUNT OF CREDITS TO TAKE CPA EXAM, WHICH IS REALLY WHERE ITS AT. OTHERWISE YOU’RE STUCK AT ACCOUNTS PAYABLE, RECEIVABLES OR BOOKKEEPING.

      2. June is over. It’s July 4th…stop worshipping and licking Drake’s nuts so hard. He’s a Canadian Culture Vulture that should’ve been ran out of the industry a decade ago. He’s so corny and lame seriously.

    3. Lol look at his audience. Literally all girls with their some of their g.a.y guy friends sprinkled in there. Looks the same at every concert of his hahaha

      1. lol true. the backstreet boys basically have the same target audience. hard to tell whose concert this is tbh

    4. i actually have no right to be this fcked up on acid and comment so this means drake always good with me especially if he’s singng and spreading good vilbes for everyone i remember those days and the song was great when you were in love even if you were 12 at the time its special
