Looks like someone didn’t realize how many kids watch DeGrassi! A free concert at Manhattan’s South Street Seaport featuring Drake and Hanson had to be canceled yesterday after 20,000 fans showed up—twice as many as expected. Already concerned with the overcrowding, the Mmm-cops finally intervened when chairs and bottles started being launched. “I love performing for my fans but unfortunately the show was cancelled by the NYPD due to overcrowding, leaving me without the chance to give my fans a real show,” Drake explained to AllHiphop.com. “I’m thankful for the support that the fans have been giving me. I thank you now.” Honestly, though, they only thought 10,000 people would show for rap’s Rick Springfield (the week his long-awaited album finally drops) and an opening act whose rabid cult has existed for over a decade? Was this concert sponsored by Bad Idea Jeans?
