Drake Congratulates Chance The Rapper On Launching
His Own Festival
“Always happy to see people making historic moments for
their hometown.”
Drake has been throwing OVO Fest in his city for 7 years
now, so he knows a successful hometown event when he
sees one. Chance The Rapper’s very first Magnificent
Coloring Day took place in Chicago Saturday, featuring
acts like Lil Wayne, 2 Chainz, Young Thug, Tyler, The
Creator, LiL Uzi Vert, and even a very special surprise
appearance from Kanye West.
Footage from the show illustrates just how great of a day
it was, which comes through particularly well in a clip
that shows fans gleefully rushing towards the stage when
Kanye showed up. Obviously, it was enough for Drake to
give the rapper props on his achievement, throwing up a
picture of he, Chance, and Kanye together, writing,
“Congrats to@chancetherapper on starting a festival and
putting on an incredible show for your city! Always happy
to see people making historic moments for their hometown.”
Drake and Chance still haven’t done a song together, but
it seems like a lot has changed since Drake name-dropped
the Chicago rapper on a song claiming he didn’t know him.
“And if I left this shit to chance I would’ve picked a name
like Chance the Rapper / Yeah, no offense cause I don’t
know that n*gga,” he rapped on 2014’s “Draft Day.”
