Drake and J. Cole’s tour delayed

Drake and J. Cole’s ‘It’s All a Blur Tour – Big As the What?’ tour has been delayed by a couple of weeks.

The pair’s jaunt was due to commence on January 18 with two consecutive nights in Denver, however, the first show will now take place on February 2 in Tampa Bay, Florida.

The Denver dates will now take place on April 15 and April 16.

Ticketmaster updated the tour dates, but there is no explanation for the pushback.

The ‘Rich Flex’ rapper added 10 extra dates to the run after he surprised fans by dropping the ‘Scary Hours 3’ EP, an extension to his latest LP ‘For All The Dogs’, in November.

Drake and Cole have collaborated a handful of times, including on the No. 1 hit ‘First Person Shooter’ and ‘Evil Ways’ from ‘For All the Dogs’.

Meanwhile, Drake’s rival Kanye West and his buddy Ty Dolla $ign have just delayed their joint album again.

After teasing fans about the release of ‘Vultures’, the collaborators were originally set to drop it on December 15, however, a representative for Kanye has now confirmed the collection will arrive on February 9.

It has gone through several date changes, with fans anticipating the record on New Year’s Eve, then January 12, and January 19, before the month was swapped.

They have encountered several issues, struggling to get samples cleared. It’s said to feature a Backstreet Boys sample of their 90s’ hit ‘Everybody’.

What’s more, there were plans for Nicki Minaj’s unreleased tune ‘New Body’ to feature, which was originally set to feature on Kanye’s LP ‘Yandhi’ in 2018 but was scrapped.

And Nicki didn’t want an old song to be used.

When the record does finally arrive, it will be the first project for Kanye since he ruined his career by making a series of controversial antisemitic statements, which led to brands cutting ties with the ‘Stronger’ rapper.
