Limp Bizkit Fans Boo Drake After Fred Durst Shouts Out Rapper at Band’s Toronto Show: Watch
Written by djfrosty on July 26, 2024
Drake apparently decided to pop out as a fan to the Limp Bizkit concert in Toronto on Thursday night (July 25), but when frontman Fred Durst shouted him out, the crowd reaction was less than enthusiastic.
“Did you know Drake’s here tonight?” Durst said as concertgoers booed, though the rapper was not visible. “I thought Drake was your homie? What? No? Drake’s my homie.”
The Budweiser Stage audience’s boos continued to get louder as Durst went on, before the rocker dedicated the next track in the band’s set to the 6 God. “F–k you,” one fan can be heard saying in a viral clip on TikTok.
“Since Drake’s here — he’s over here on the side — we’re gonna do this one for him. It’s dedicated to you,” Durst added as the opening strains of the band’s 2000 hit “Take a Look Around” started playing.

Billboard has reached out to Drake’s reps for comment.
Some watching the Loserville Tour clip on X were shocked to see the rapper getting booed in his hometown, while others weren’t as surprised based on there being not much overlap between Limp Bizkit fans and Drizzy’s core fan base.
“I doubt many Drake fans and Limp Bizkit fans are synonymous with one another,” one person replied.
Another quipped: “Welp guess drake gonna take a selfie with oversized pants a korn tshirt and a box of biscuits.”
While Drake may have received a cold reception at the Limp Bizkit tour, he’s still out to deliver for his own fans when it comes to music. Drizzy recently served up a pair of features via Gordo’s Diamante project, making appearances on “Sideways” and album closer “Healing.”
The OVO boss and Gordo have a rich collaborative history, as he produced a handful of tracks on 2022’s Honestly, Nevermind. Even amid the fallout from the Kendrick Lamar battle, Gordo says Drake is at peace and in a great state of mind.
“Ever since all this has happened … I’ve seen him happier. It’s really weird. He’s pretty jolly,” Gordo told People. “The internet makes it seem like, ‘Oh, that photo, he’s all sad and s–t.’ That’s just a bad photo from a bad camera. But because it’s him, it’s put under a magnifying glass like, ‘Oh, look at his eyes. He’s looking a little droopy. He hasn’t slept.’ But the guy’s been happy as s–t, to be honest. He’s chilling.”
