Drake delighted fans during his recent performance in Cleveland, bringing out special guests and showcasing his iconic dance moves reminiscent of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air’s Carlton Banks.
The show, which took place on Saturday (February 24) as part of his “It’s All A Blur — Big As The What?” tour, featured surprise appearances by Machine Gun Kelly and Doe Boy, much to the excitement of the audience.
While some Cleveland natives like Kid Cudi were notably absent, the energy in the arena remained high as Drake and his guests electrified the stage.
Earlier in the week, Drake made headlines for his spirited dance performance at a show in Pittsburgh on February 16. Channeling the beloved character Carlton Banks, portrayed by Alfonso Ribeiro in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Drake showcased his moves with enthusiasm, drawing cheers from the crowd.

Despite the possibility of legal repercussions, as Ribeiro previously sued Epic Games over the use of the Carlton dance in Fortnite, Drake’s rendition seemed to pay homage rather than infringe on copyright. Ribeiro later dropped the lawsuit against Epic Games.
Drake’s tour alongside J. Cole, dubbed “It’s All A Blur: Big As The What?”, has been filled with viral moments, including his explanation for a memorable outfit worn during the opening night.
Addressing the audience during a performance in Tampa, Florida, Drake humorously defended his choice of attire, referring to it as a “spine” costume.
“I wore the spine because most of these guys that I look in the eyes are spineless as fuck,” he explained drawing laughter and applause from the crowd.
