Drake marches forward into the final city of his 35 show European experience on Monday, when he starts a two-night set in Amsterdam, where he'll bring an end to his Boy Meets World Tour. But he wasn't prepared to move on at the SSE Hydro arena in Glasgow, Scotland on Thursday, March 23, without first stopping his show to first acknowledge what tragedy the resilient people of London have gone through since he departed the city on Monday.
The More Life rap star made reference to the attack that claimed four lives and injured more than two dozen on Wednesday. Drake has touched down in the U.K. city on three different occasions during the tour, and performed seven nights, bringing Young Thug, Nicki Minaj, Popcaan and Trey Songz, among other artists, along to bring joy to his British faithful. He stood before the Scottish crowd on Thursday with a heavy heart, as he spoke of believing there are people in this world who truly wish to divide, and of feeling like his hope was restored by seeing the diverse mix of people coming together to vibe.
"One of my favorite feelings in the world was to come from London, to stand in the back and pray, pray about a different emotion. And then to come out here in Scottland, and to see people from all races, all places, just showing love, enjoying ourselves. And I want to thank you for that!" he said.
