Drake’s OVO Fest came and went five days ago. But Dre Films takes us back to T-Dot with a look behind the scenes, the performances and Rozay’s $27k total spent on Vintage Frames. Frame that.
Backstage at his OVO Fest last weekend, Drake spoke to Much Music on his performance, Aaliyah’s single “Enough Said” and her posthumous album helmed mostly by himself and “40”. Drake also says it will feature at least 13-14 tracks and will include those who have worked with the late songstress. Miss Info has clarification on whether the project is supported by her family.

Of course, Drake brought out a few surprise guests during last night’s show. Above, Nicki Minaj made her presence felt for “Make Me Proud”. She got it, there she go.
