Very scary: photo of Drake collapsed onstage
Posted by Miss Info under Concerts , Not Good For Hip Hop , Photos , Sigh , Things I Learned On Twitter[32] Comments
Angel from Concrete Loop just retweeted this fan photo taken of Drake just after he fell in pain onstage while performing “Best I Ever Had,” with Lil Wayne in Camden, NJ.
Whats so scary about this photo is you can sense how much pain Drake is feeling. I asked folks on twitter for some insight into ACL-tears, and judging by the responses, they take months of rehabbing. Even then, the knee is very vulnerable to new injury.
UPDATE: Drake reassures fans via his hypeman’s twitter

……and u know there’s a video coming….

Call me a hater, but for some reason, i keep thinking that the record industry is gonna find that Drake was a BAD investment…………………….but then again, what do i know about music today….im still stuck on Nas and Slick Rick and Scarface and such…
anyway, get better son, that looks painful

It’s messed up because homie has worked so hard and has broken all the odds that was stacked against him. But from the outside looking in. I think homie needs to get a better team around him. Of lately every ‘major’ decision he has been making regarding his career has back fired on him. Why is did his management co-sign this? It’s obvious the negative out weight the positive of him going on tour. I hope it ain’t nothing and homie has a healthy recovery. 4real

Drake is boring females are the only ones who like him . There is a lot more people out there with so much talent . I think because Lil Wayne co signed him every one is on his jock .

He already plays a criple in Degrassi. We don’t need him to be crippled in real life.
August 1st, 2009 at 2:55 am
I agree on the bad investment idea. You would think he would’ve been famous here in Canada first, he wasn’t.

get well Drake.. we need ur Real hip hop..

If you can’t see that he was trying to perform for his fans your just as dumb as all the souljah boy fans in the world. The kid was trying to NOT let down all the fans that paid to see him.
I respect him for the thought but he did more harm than good. Hope his fans see how he gave up his body to put on a show for them
I know I did when I messed up my ankle playing basketball and still played through the pain in high school.
Either way people are gonna talk ish. If he doesn’t go on they say he’s letting down his fans if he does go on he hurts his self. Just appreciate him going hard for his fans since a lot of artists won’t do that

It seems like Drake needs better people around him, like when i saw that video on youtube and how he fell, it was MADDDD sad, and how lil wayne sarcastic ass just played it off, and like ” i thought it was only on a T.V. show” like the degrassi thing, i’m thinking like YOU LITTLE BITCH ASS BIRDMAN DICK SUCKER , WHAT YOU EXPECT YOU GOT THIS NIGGA DRAKE HUSTLING ON THIS TOUR knowing dayum well his leg all fucked upp since before the BET awards. now it was foolish of drake to do all that jumping around and spinning shit but he was feeling his self & the crowd was digging him so yea. but it’s sad ! Now i wouldn’t go far to say he is a bad investment, he is a great artist, singer, & he got personality. & He is very attractive, ladies love him. & dudes wanna be like him so drake is GOOD MONEY. he might be a little cripple after this but i wouldn’t go far to say he going be paralyze, nah ! drake please worry about yourself, your fans is going always be your fans, if they really your true fans, ya digs? i pray’d for you man. WE LOVE YOU DRAKE, YOU THE FUCKIN BEST ! (;

August 1st, 2009 at 8:56 am
WOW! Did you just say…?? Wow! SMH
Wishing him luck and being delusional should be a separate thing. Yet somehow you’ve managed to squeeze the two together.

Not a good look homie. Maybe if his pants weren’t so tight he’d have some more room to move around.
August 1st, 2009 at 1:44 pm

August 1st, 2009 at 1:45 pm

I got mad love for drake no homo. but this is the dumbest ni99a I have ever seen. every man should know not to f#^k around their health, especially when it’s an ACL injury, this guy is a goof. TORONTO STAND UP!!!!!!
August 2nd, 2009 at 5:09 pm
I love drake and it sucks he has to go through this injury at this time. He actually tore it in Mississauga, Ontario while playing basketball with some friends, i know some people who were there shooting some hoops and saw him before he injured himself.
