Despite a tumultuous year marked by a highly publicized feud with Kendrick Lamar that tarnished his reputation, Drake shows no signs of slowing down as he gears up for his highly anticipated \u2018Anita Max Win\u2019 tour.<\/h2>\n
The Canadian rapper, born Aubrey Graham, touched in Melbourne on January 9, ahead of his first show in Perth, with a red solo cup. Known for his love of luxury, Drake flaunted a $700k win at Crown Casino, sharing glimpses of his lavish stay in a presidential suite through Instagram posts and stories.<\/p>\n
Drake didn\u2019t stop there, booking out the upscale French restaurant Maison Batard, owned by renowned Melbourne restaurateur Chris Lucas<\/strong>, for his crew. Later, the rapper and his entourage hit up the venue\u2019s exclusive underground club, Le Club<\/strong>, also owned by Lucas, for a top-secret performance.<\/p>\n The intimate event took place on Friday night, with Drake treating 100 lucky guests (including 30 members of his inner circle and security) to a night of karaoke that stretched into the early hours. Special invitees included 25 Miss Universe contestants, Maison Batard owner Chris Lucas and his family, and renowned chef Bianca Roccisano.<\/p>\n When approached by the Herald Sun, Lucas kept details under wraps, saying, \u201cWhile I can\u2019t confirm or deny a private concert took place, this is what Melbourne is all about \u2014 creating some of the best world-class spaces that people can come to from all over the world.\u201d<\/p>\n Drake\u2019s \u2018Anita Max Win tour will take him across Perth, Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, and back to Sydney before concluding in Auckland, New Zealand, from February 4 to March 16. This marks the rapper\u2019s return to Australia after a seven-year hiatus.<\/p>\n![\"Le](\"https:\/\/greekcitytimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Le-club-empty-576x1024.jpg\"){kind=spacer}
