Why Jermaine Dupri Couldn’t Believe Drake’s Lil WeezyAna Fest No-Show.
Jermaine Dupri recently expressed surprise and disbelief that Drake missed Lil Wayne’s Lil WeezyAna Fest, a popular annual festival celebrating New Orleans hip-hop culture, for a Toronto Raptors game.
Fans and insiders were equally astonished, as Drake and Wayne share a close bond, with Wayne having been a significant influence on Drake’s early career when he signed him to Young Money.
However, despite the absence, Drake has previously shown a deep appreciation for New Orleans and his mentor, often joining Wayne on stage for memorable performances. During a past Lil WeezyAna Fest, Drake surprised the audience by performing hits like “
The Motto” and sharing nostalgic stories about his early days in the city, reflecting on how his career was shaped by Wayne and New Orleans itself.
