Drake Joined By Lil Baby In Toronto, 21 Savage Reportedly Denied Entry To Canada

by

Fans expecting 21 Savage for the Toronto hometown shows of the It’s All a Blur tour were left disappointed as the rapper was reportedly unable to secure entry to Canada. Throughout the week, Drake had teased that Savage had finally secured his green card and would be joining him in Toronto for two of the final shows of the tour. However, that did not end up being the case. Savage was reportedly denied entry to Canada.

Instead, Lil Baby joined Drake for the first show since For All The Dogs dropped. While a solid performance and a major get for Drake, it’s still not the person that everyone was expecting. While Drake never explicitly said that Savage would be with him in Toronto, it was heavily inferred from some of the lyrics of “8AM in Charlotte”. “Savage got a green card straight out of the consulate/Where I go, you go, brother, we Yugoslavian,” had people ready for Savage to hit up the Six.

Drake Facing A Lot Of Heat Over For All The Dogs

Disappointed Savage fans are not the only people who are coming after Drake following his new album drop. From a legal perspective, two separate artists have accused Drizzy of sampling without permission. British synth-pop band Pet Shop Boys have accused Drake of using their 1986 hit “West End Girls” without permission on “All The Parties”. Meanwhile, Rye Rye has said that her vocals appear without permission on “Calling For You”. Drake has not yet responded to either of these allegations.

However, from a fandom perspective, things are even worse. The Barbz are up in arms after Drake’s heavily promoted Nicki Minaj feature does not appear on the album. Meanwhile, the Rihanna Navy is coming after him after he dedicated an entire track, “Fear Of Heights” to dissing the Barbadian baddie. Furthermore, For All The Dogs appears to include disses against Kanye, NBA YoungBoy, and Pusha T. Drake has been pretty quiet about all these alleged diss tracks.

Kanye West May Be Denied Entry To Australia Over Antisemitism

by

Kanye West may be unable to obtain an Australian visa due to his history of antisemitic behavior. One government minister said on Wednesday that Ye’s “awful” antisemitic comments could result in him being denied access by the country.

West is reportedly hoping to travel to his new wife Bianca Censori’s hometown of Melbourne to meet her family.

“People like that who’ve applied for visas to get into Australia in the past have been rejected,” Minister for Education Jason Clare said in an interview with CNN affiliate Nine News. “I expect that if he does apply he would have to go through the same process and answer the same questions that they did.”

Ye has made all sorts of antisemitic comments in recent months. He admitted to liking Adolf Hitler while speaking with Alex Jones, shared a Swastika on Twitter, and more. He’s also been hanging out with infamous white nationalist Nick Fuentes.

Executive Council of Australian Jewry co-chief Peter Wertheim addressed the situation in a statement to Sky News.

“We’ve made the case that this particular individual does not meet the character test and that it would be in the national interest not to grant him a visa and we set out our reasons in some detail,” Wertherim said.

Australia has blocked far-right figures from entering the country for failing the “good character” test in previous years. In 2015, they blocked British conspiracy theorist David Icke who was on a speaking tour.

Immigration Minister Andrew Giles will likely make the final decision on Kanye West’s access to the country.

West and Censori reportedly tied the knot, earlier this month, however, they did so without filing a marriage certificate.
