Viral footage of Drake seemingly attacking a spy drone with a sandal in a hotel is thought to be a promo stunt for a casino.

Drake is currently in the middle of his first Australia and New Zealand tour in eight years, a 14-date jaunt that will wrap up on March 16 in Auckland. It was during this tour that the clip, which shows a drone getting up close to the musician, went viral.

The drone goes up to a laptop which is on an outdoor table. Drake then steps out onto the patio before throwing a sandal at the drone. The footage then breaks up, showing what looks to be a penthouse in Sydney, Australia.

Drake later shared a screenshot from the video to Instagram, where he nodded to online casino Stake, writing: “The stakes are high…but so am I”. Drake has partnered with the online casino since 2022.

Drake was also recently announced as this year’s Wireless Festival headliner, which will see him take over the prime spot at all three nights of the annual London music bash.

The event will return to London’s Finsbury Park from July 11 to 13 and to mark the occasion, Drake will become the first artist to headline a festival for three nights with three different setlists.

The shows will be the rapper’s first UK performances in six years, and he will be joined across the weekend by artists including Burna Boy, PartyNextDoor, Summer Walker and Vybz Kartel. Tickets for the event are on sale here.
