Drake Drops Europe

Although the rapper didn’t offer details regarding his mom’s health, Drake did issue a statement saying he wants to be by his mother’s side “just as she supported me through the years.”

The Euro leg of “The Away From Home Tour” was to begin tomorrow at the Hovefestival in Arendal, Norway. Other stops included a July 4 appearance at London’s Wireless Festival, a July 8 performance at Les Ardentes Festival in Liege, Belgium, and a July 10 T In The Park gig in Kinross, United Kingdom.

At this time Drake is still scheduled to perform in his native Canada, playing Cisco Ottawa Bluesfest July 16 and the Molson Canadian Amphitheatre Aug. 1.
