In order to start 2024 on a high note, Drake has unveiled his exciting new tour, It's All a Blur. Despite already having a busy year touring with 21 Savage, the 37-year-old artist has decided to hit the road once again. On Monday, November 13th, Drake revealed the eagerly anticipated sequel tour, titled It's All A Blur - Big As The What?. The tour will commence on January 18, 2024, in Denver. Joining Drake on this tour will be J. Cole, the talented rapper who collaborated with "The 6 God" on the hit track "First Person Shooter," helping him secure his 13th No. 1 song on the Billboard Hot 100, and matching the late Michael Jackson's record.
Drake and J. Cole will be embarking on the It’s All a Blur tour, which will cover various states in the United States, including the Midwest and Southern regions. Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena will host the rescheduled dates for the first leg of the tour in February. Originally planned for June, the Nashville performance was first postponed to October before being rescheduled a second time.
For the final four dates of the tour, J. Cole will not be joining Drake, who will be performing solo in Belmont Park, New York; State College, Pennsylvania; Sunrise, Florida; and Birmingham, Alabama. Although no other support acts have been confirmed yet, fans are eagerly hoping for Drake’s 6-year-old son, Adonis, to have an opening slot and perform his first hit, “My Man Freestyle,” during the tour.
The inaugural It’s All a Blur tour celebrated Her Loss, the collaborative album by 31-year-old 21 Savage and Drake. Their efforts were recognized with several Grammy nominations on Friday, November 10. "Rich Flex" received a nomination for Best Rap Performance, while "Spin Bout U" was nominated for Best Melodic Rap Performance. Additionally, "Rich Flex" was recognized in the Best Rap Song category, which honors songwriters, and Her Loss earned a nomination for Best Rap Album.

Drake’s most recent solo album, For All The Dogs, was released on October 6, after the September 15 cut-off date for 2024 Grammys eligibility.
Her Loss will be up against Michael by Killer Mike, King's Disease III by Nas, Utopia by Travis Scott, and Heroes & Villains by Metro Boomin. As Drake's history with the Grammys has been uncertain, it remains unclear if he will be present at the 2024 ceremony.

Drake received nominations for Best Rap Performance ("Way 2 Sexy") and Best Rap Album (Certified Lover Boy) in 2022. However, he later decided to remove himself from consideration, suggesting a disconnect between impactful music and award-winning music. At the 2022 ceremony, Kendrick Lamar and Baby Keem were awarded Best Rap Performance for their track "Family Ties," while Tyler, The Creator took home the prize for Best Rap Album with Call Me If You Get Lost.
