Drake ‘s love letter to London reached its climax Saturday night (July 12) when he performed night 2 of his Wireless Festival 2025 takeover. His second outing of the weekend had a grittier tone as he sought to abandon the melodies that had fans swaying Friday night and return to his punishing ways.

Speaking to the packed crowd, Drake praised London's rap scene. He said the world's best lyricists come from the UK's capital. While not putting down US artists, he highlighted the high skill level he sees in UK hip hop from London's varied music landscape.

Drake responds to the crowd’s anti-Kendrick chant at Wireless Festival by taking a shot and addressing the moment.
