Fresh off the second American leg of It’s All A Blur Tour that ended in October 2024, Drake is already back on the road.

But this time, he’s gone under for the Anita Max Win Tour due to much demand from his Australian fans, who haven’t seen him in years. It was initially supposed only to have seven dates, but due to overwhelming ticket sales, he expanded it to 16 across the country’s biggest hot spots in Perth, Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, and Auckland.

He’s currently just one date in and already addressing the beef that enveloped many rapheads throughout 2024 against Kendrick Lamar.

Fans perceived the West Coast bop and five-time Grammy-winning “Not Like Us”—which referred to Drizzy as a certifiable creep—as a kill shot that would remove him from the top of the rap game.

However, Drake made it clear that it wasn’t a headshot, and he did so very literally. At the beginning of the show, he continued the tradition of emerging in the stands to greet fans, wearing a shirt with bullet holes strewn across the front and even smoke emerging from his back.

The bullet holes likely represent all his fellow rappers who turned their backs on him during the Lamar beef, like A$AP Rocky, Rick Ross, The Weeknd, and Metro Boomin.

At the end of the show he also made it known that he’s still here, telling fans, “My name is Drake, I started doing music in 2008, I come all the way from Toronto, Canada. The year is now 2025, and no matter what, Drizzy Drake is very much alive.”

It wasn’t just rappers that Drake felt backstabbed him; it was also athlete LeBron James after he was spotted at K. Dot’s “Pop Out” show and professing his love for it during the Paris Olympics this summer.

So, during the concert, when he performed “Nonstop,” he subtly changed the lyrics, rapping, “How I go from 6 to 23 but not LeBron, man.”

That was only night one of the tour, so there’s no telling what other subtle digs he’ll have as he makes his way through Australia.
