Drake is breaking his silence about his alleged involvement in a violent bar brawl with Chris Brown last week that left several people injured, massive property damage and lots of unanswered questions.
The Take Care rapper took the stage at Jones Beach in Long Island, N.Y., on Saturday, where he alluded to last Thursday's events at W.i.P. nightclub linking him and his entourage to the bottle-bashing melee.
Per the New York Daily News, the rapper hit the stage Saturday and said, "When I woke up this morning, I had to think about a lot of things. But the only thing I gave a f--k about was that I was in New York City tonight."
Later during the show, he quipped, "It's last call and you're really too drunk to give a f--k."
But he was far from finished with his tirade: "A n---er in the corner is standing there looking at you funny," he added. "You bump elbows with him on the way to the bathroom, but really there's only one n---er that you got to think about."
Until now, the rapper has remained largely silent, issuing a statement through his rep last week that denied any involvement in the fracas: "Drake did not participate in any wrongdoing of any kind last night at W.i.P. He was on his way out of the club when the altercation began. He did not engage in any activity which resulted in injury to person or damage to property."
The club itself was shut down on Saturday by law-enforcement officials, who cited a litany of previous violations that culminated in Thursday's notorious brawl.
"The owners would agree to the closing by NYPD for up to 235 days if additional assaults and other violations of the agreement occurred," an NYPD spokesman told E! News.
The club's manager, Jonathan Cantor, was also arrested on Friday on two outstanding warrants stemming from noise complaints over the West Village club.
Brown and Drake, and the respective entourages, were allegedly involved in the brutal brawl early Thursday morning, which left a sea of shattered glass at the club and sent several bystanders to the hospital.
Brown himself suffered a nasty gash on his chin, but his camp shot down reports that Breezy sent a bottle of champagne to Drake's table as a peace offering for the two's reported rivalry over Rihanna, whom they both dated.
