Drake Announces OVO Fest 2015 on Twitter: Lineup Set to Feature J. Cole, Big Sean and More
Drake is currently getting ready for the sixth annual installment of October's Very Own Fest this summer.
The Toronto emcee took to his Twitter account on Tuesday to announce the official lineup for the upcoming three-day event and share its accompanying flyer, listing a bunch of hip-hop artists that are set to take the stage.
The first show will take place on Aug. 1 at the Air Canada Centre in Drizzy's hometown, where Kevin Hart is slated to kick off the festivities with a headlining standup comedy performance.
On the following day, fellow rapper J. Cole is scheduled to bring his "2014 Forest Hills Drive" tour to the Canada-based venue, joined by Big Sean, YG, Jeremih, as well as his Dreamville Records signees Bas, Cozz and Omen.
The "If You're Reading This It's Too Late" rapper will wrap up the forthcoming festival on Aug. 3 at the Molson Canadian Amphitheatre with special guests to be announced later.
Meanwhile, Drake recently denied any involvement in the upcoming film "Drake's Homecoming: The Lost Footage" set to hit 250 theaters on March 19, tweeting:
"This live sold out concert filmed at Toronto's Sound Academy in 2009 just prior to Drake signing with Lil Wayne's Young Money was believed lost and destroyed," the movie website states. "After its recent re-discovery, additional production footage was added to the concert film including interviews with James Prince and his son Jas Prince; the latter credited with the actual discovery of Drake. The much anticipated concert film includes the international smashes, 'Best I Ever Had' and 'Successful.'"
Tickets for OVO Fest 2015 go on sale on March 20.
