Canadian Politician Jagmeet Singh Apologizes After Drake Criticism Over Toronto Concert

Drake publicly criticized Canadian politician Jagmeet Singh for attending Kendrick Lamar's concert in Toronto, calling Singh a "goof" via Instagram direct message and posting the exchange on his story. Singh, the former leader of Canada's New Democratic Party, apologized publicly, explaining he attended the show for SZA and reaffirmed his support for Drake, stating that Drake and OVO have uplifted the city and Canada. Despite Singh's apology, Drake unfollowed him on social media, signaling a rift between the two. This incident occurred amid the ongoing feud between Drake and Kendrick Lamar, with Kendrick performing diss tracks against Drake during the Toronto shows. The situation sparked debate on social media, with opinions divided on whether Drake's public call-out of a politician over concert attendance was appropriate. Singh's response emphasized his hometown loyalty and preference for Drake, attempting to ease tensions after the public fallout.
