Over the course of the two nights Drake transformed the stage and took his fans on a journey from his humble beginnings to his rise to fame. Drake opened the show in a replica of his mom’s basement followed by a label boardroom and Harlem Bodega ending in front of The Apollo sign. The show was an homage to dreams Drake had as a young boy and his experiences struggling to achieve the notoriety he finally has today. This was Drake’s first performance at The Apollo as well his first full recent concert in years. Throughout the show Drake performed classics like “Best I Ever Had, Headlines, HYFR (Hell Ya Fucking Right), God’s Plan, One Dance, In My Feelings, and more (SiriusXM).”

Drake brought out Dipset and 21 Savage on both nights at The Apollo, but on Sunday, he brought out surprise performer Lil Uzi and the crowd went crazy. Uzi performed latest hit Just Wanna followed by XO Tour Lif3. After Uzi’s performance Drake spoke about the brotherhood they share and how he was grateful for their friendship. Drake praised everyone he performed alongside from Dipset to 21 Savage and ended the night with a motivating speech about how even far-fetched appearing goals can be achieved if he made it to The Apollo after the haircut he had on Degrassi. It was like attending a tribute concert to a living legend performed by the legend himself.
On October 6th, 21 Savage hosted a celebration at the Atlanta Saks Fifth Ave in honor of the launch of his co-designed capsule collection.
Earlier this month, 21 Savage collaborated with fashion and lifestyle brand RTA to launch his co-designed denim and streetwear collection. David Rimkof, CEO and founder of RTA, and Savage 21,set out to co-design a collection that would be unlike any album merch
we’ve seen. The exclusive eight-piece capsule collection comes ahead of his latest album release and embodies 21 Savage’s style. “Savage and I have been mutually appreciative of each other’s work for quite some time. We both aligned on the fact that our art is an ongoing process, a journey of constant improvement. We spoke about putting together a product that leaped ahead of standard merch, which most artists put out.” stated Rimkof. “The play on his tattooed dagger and our iconic cross was seamless, hence us fitting it into the primary logo. This features a hand-drawn dagger replacing the cross at the center.”.The limited-edition collection is five pairs of jeans in custom washes, a denim button-down shirt, a long-sleeve shirt, and one graphic t-shirt. The latest collection launched exclusively on the RTA website, Saksfifthave.com, and select Saks Fifth Ave Stores.
In honor of the launch, 21 Savage hosted a celebration for the limited edition collection at the Saks Fifth Ave Atlanta. Along with 21 Savage, fellow rapper Yung Joc, and the CEO and founder of RTA, David Rimkoff, were all in attendance. 21 Savage arrived at the epic launch party dressed from head to toe in his favorite pieces from the co-designed collection. The entire RTA X Savage collection was displayed for all attendees to view the capsule collection in person. Take a peak at the collection and pics from the event below.
