Hip Hop/R&B artist Drake has been hot in the media over the last week due to his new collaboration with PND (PartyNextDoor). Fans who follow the beloved artist and his music know that Drake will be headlining the Wireless tour in London this summer.
It is good news for those fans who were able to purchase tickets online a couple of days ago, knowing that the “Wireless” festival is an annual concert each year. The bad news is that there are not any more tickets available. On Wednesday, NFR Podcast reported that the “Wireless” tour tickets have sold out, which is the fastest ever in the history of the festival.
Drake Set to Headline “Wireless” Tour This Summer
Drake has not released a new solo album since 2023. But, on Valentine’s Day, a collaborated album with PartyNextDoor was released to the public. Seeing that he will be headlining the “Wireless Tour in July could be a hint of a new solo album hitting the airways in the near future.
The “Wireless” Tour dates are set for July 11-13. As tickets went on sale Wednesday, it is the most tickets sold for the festival at 135,000+ in a matter of minutes since the announcement was made that Drake would be the headliner for the three-night festival. Drake, PartyNextDoor, and Summer Walker will be on stage for the first night of the festival. “The Boy and the “Mandem” will join him the following night, and Burna Boy and Vybz Kartel will conclude the headlining with Drake on the final evening.
Drake’s Music Career in Recent Times
Drake has been one of the top Hip Hop/R&B artists of this generation since around 2008. Over the past year, his career has taken a fall with the whole Kendrick Lamar beef. It has caused such an issue for him that he decided to sue Lamar for his song titled “Not Like Us’. Lamar uses the artist’s name in his song as he jabs at him. Things took a different turn as Lamar performed his song during the Super Bowl LIX halftime show, which was not supposed to be played during the show.
With the release of the collaboration album with PartyNextDoor, fans are getting a taste of Drake before that possible solo album debuts. Songs such as Something About You and Gimme A Hug show more personal feelings on a deeper level in the new album. However, fans have been waiting for Drake to bring more music to the multiple streaming platforms for quite some time.
Final Thoughts
Fans will get a chance to witness Drake on stage at the “Wireless” festival this summer and just might be in for a surprise if he gives another hint at his next solo album release date. For now, the 21 songs with PartyNextDoor can be listened to or streamed worldwide as he prepares to headline with other artists in London this summer. Be on the lookout, as July 11 is less than five months away!
