Drake's Summer Sixteen has had him doing shows on an almost nightly basis since July, and while he's been getting through his recent schedule despite an ankle injury, a physician has instructed the rapper to postpone a few of his remaining shows."We are over 50 shows in and I have done everything to power through my recent ankle injury and leave it all out there on the stage every night. I hate to be told I can't do something, but under doctor's orders to allow me time to recuperate," he writes to fans, revealing that shows in Toronto, Philly, and Newark will be affected. "I promise - I will make it up to you."Drake has back-to-back shows scheduled in both Toronto and Newark, so it is not clear which of the dates will be made up later on. Stay tuned for further details.Read Drake's full message below.
