Rap-Up.com || Drake Kicks Off ‘Club Paradise’ Tour at Penn State University

The show must go on. In the midst of the controversy surrounding Penn State University, Drake kicked off his “Club Paradise” tour at Bryce Jordan Center in University Park on Thursday night (Nov. 10). Wearing a cutoff Penn State hoodie and leopard-print jeans, October’s Very Own performed material from his sophomore album Take Care including “Make Me Proud,” “Marvin’s Room,” and “Headlines.”

“I want to truly thank you for being able to come together and have a great evening. Like I said, despite everything that’s going on around you, this is one of the greatest schools in the motherfu**in’ world. I love you,” he said to cheers from 15,000 concertgoers. “I’d love to come back some time, maybe with some of my family like Nicki Minaj. So while I work on making that happen, you work on being the beautiful people that you are. And until next time I see you, take care.”

Drizzy will bring his tour to Chicago on Sunday and will headline a series of radio concerts throughout the holiday season. If you’re in Las Vegas for New Year’s, catch him performing at The Joint at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.

that’s just like a broke down n*gga to skip his happy, hi-yella ass up to Penn State with all that controversy happening there. here a white man has been molesting young boys there and this fool goes there to perform and HAS THE NERVE TO WEAR A PENN STATE HOODIE? when his ass probably didn’t finish high school. if it was an HBCU he wouldn’t be there. i advise everyone to bootleg “TakeCare” b/c the sh*t aint worth it.

They are leopard print jeans proably because he thought it would rep the nittany lions i’ve seen guys wear pants like that to football games but they look more like sweats. Drake did a good thing a lot of students who have nothing to do with any of this are suffering. many private companies are try to pull away from penn state and anything associated with psu by remove internships and scholarship given to psu students. how will the controversy impact the graduting class? Big up to drake for remember the students aren’t involved and not being a punk like alot these businesses. He knew people would talk and didn’t care. The real is on the rise.
