Drake announces UK tour for 2012

The emotional Canadian rapper releases the dates of the UK leg of his Club Paradise Tour.

Drake will play nine shows in the spring of next year as he brings his Club Paradise Tour over the pond. Marking his first UK shows since the release of his huge second album ‘Take Care’. Details are still unclear but we can only hope that up-and-comers Kendrick Lamar and A$AP Rocky, opening acts on the North American legs of the tour, will also make an appearance. Regardless, given the lush atmospheric scope of his new album and the all-encompassing wave Drake is current riding the tour is sure to be something to take serious note of.
