Drake Performs “I Want It That Way” With Backstreet Boys
It seems Drake continues to drift further from rapping. Last month, he surprised fans with a dance album, Honestly, Nevermind, a huge pivot away from his hip hop roots. The reviews have been mixed, to say the least. Some have lauded Drizzy’s new direction, while others have not been so kind.
On Friday, Drake leaned fully into feel-good pop. The rapper appeared with the Backstreet Boys as they closed out their main set on Budweiser Stage in Toronto. He was an honorary “sixth member” of the group as they performed their eternal hit “I Want It That Way.”
