Drake has been forced to cancel his upcoming shows in Miami after being stricken down with a sudden illness. The 31-year-old, whose full name is Aubrey Drake Graham, was rushed to hospital and has said of the experience, "I had never experienced anything like that in my life."
Taking to Instagram Stories, Drake opened up about the shock illness and expressed his deepest apologies for those who had bought tickets to the two Miami nights of his 'Aubrey & The Three Migos Tour', where he would have been performing at the American Airlines Arena on 21st & 22nd September.
Taking to Instagram, Drake posted a statement which read, 'I just wanted to say how sorry I am about these two Miami shows. I got so ill so fast and I had never experienced anything like that in my life.
'Unlike other show cancellations or date adjustments due to production issues, this one fell on me and I just want to apologize because I hate letting down anyone who come to share these moments with us.
'Thank you to the two doctors and nurse that helped me with round the clock care. Miami deserves 100 percent and I promise that experience when we return. Thank you God for allowing me to recover and continue. On we go!'

There have been reports that Drake fell ill and collapsed on stage whilst rehearsing for the Miami shows, but these remain unconfirmed.
This comes after Drake confirmed that his feud with Meek Mill was over after three years. The rappers, who have worked together in the past, had been at each others' throats over the past few years, but Drake pulled Meek - real name Robert Rihmeek Williams - onto the stage so they could perform together on the Boston leg of his tour.
He took to Instagram to confirm the moment had happened, even writing the heartfelt caption, 'This really gave me peace of mind tonight. Healing and moving forward created one of the most electric and gratifying moments of my career. @meekmill Iām happy that you are home and that we could find our way back to our joint purpose šš½šš½ (Cue the Kevin Garnett āanything is possibleā adlib).' sic
