We had a sneaking suspicion that this might happen.
The curious timing of a long-awaited Detroit appearance from America's royal family, Bey and Jay, just so happened to coincide with back-to-back shows of our beloved Champagne Papi, Drake. The result? For a couple days, we can pretend that Detroit is the new Coachella.
In a video posted by the Beyonce Legion Twitter account, Drizzy himself was spotted side-stage of Beyonce and Jay-Z's On The Run tour stop at Ford Field. Here he is pointing, shaking hands, and being all kinds of lowkey amazing.
.@Drake is attending Beyoncé & JAY-Z's show in Detroit tonight.
