Drake Has A Huge Collection Of Electric Hair Trimmers

Imagine you are Drake, the platinum-selling hip-hop star who allegedly makes around $155,000 per show. It’s time to get stupid with those backstage demands, right? Right, because the Smoking Gun has uncovered Drake’s current tour rider, and are alleging that he may have amassed the largest collection of electric hair trimmers in the contemporary hip-hop scene. Those are some bold, bold claims.

Apparently Drake demands that each promoter on his tour provides him with an Andis T-Outliner trimmer, which retails for around $45. If all goes to plan, he should end up with at least 20 trimmers by the end of his current 20-date tour, and who knows how many of these items he has snagged from prior shows? It’s safe to say that Drake is a very well shorn young man.

Other items on the rider suggest hippy leanings—how else to explain the demand for four dozen incense sticks?—and also some E-Z Wider rolling papers and a pack of Master President cigars. It doesn’t take a genius to work out what those are for, but Drake is also a big boozer, with Pinot Grigio, Jack Daniel’s, Patron Silver tequila, and one bottle of Hennesy or Courvoisier and Grey Goose also included. At least he’s earning that nightly $155,000 in style.
