On Sunday night (July 13), Drake completed his three-night trifecta as headliner for the U.K.’s Wireless Festival.
After catering to R&B lovers and rap fans during the first two nights of Wireless, Drake aimed for a more global presence.
He enlisted dancehall legend Vybz Kartel and self-proclaimed African Giant Burna Boy to cap off his weekend takeover.
With blockbuster names like Kartel and Burna Boy holding down the fort for the OVO general, Drake eased his foot off the pedal and scaled back his usual dominance due to time constraints.
Despite Drake’s abridged set, he didn’t slow down the energy, diving into the more worldly sounds on his catalogue, pouring out classics like “One Dance,” “Find Your Love” and “Controlla.”
The set echoed his 2023 It’s All A Blur Tour, where house remixes and DJ-led transitions created the ambiance.
This time, he added newer records to the mix, including “No Guidance” and “Come Closer.”
Despite the familiar setup, he previewed a new song with Central Cee ahead of his set. Slated to drop Friday (July 18), he gave London a first listen with Cench vibing to the record in the crowd.
Then, Drake brought out Rema, Kartel and PopCaan to close Wireless 2025 with an unforgettable global touch.
