Drake Will Continue To Push, After Weekend Collapse

Just days after an unfortuante collapse on stage, Drake says he will continue to push forward no matter what.

"I embarked on this tour with a torn ACL, MCL, and LCL and due to the events that happened the other night lord only knows what other damage I have done. On the bright side I will begin the reflecting and soul searching that its going to take to make this album and my outfit on the night I fell was crack," Drake on his blog October's Very Own.

"I will forever push myself beyond the limits despite advice and recommendations given because even with this new found success I am still the kid who wanted this more than anything in the world. Its funny when I read comments from previous fans who have lost interest because of the radio play and exposure I have. I just want to assure anyone reading that nothing has changed on my end. I refuse to get comfortable, I refuse to fall in line and follow anyone else�s formulas."

As previously reported on Singersroom, Drake and Lil Wayne were performing �Best I Ever Had� when Drake was moving across the stage and did a spin move�he must have turned his already-injured knee while spinning, because Drake suddenly collapsed on the stage. �He put his head down because he was in so much pain,� and then 4 guys ran out on the stage and had to carry him off.

Lil Wayne was left onstage in a state of confusion. Sources say that Weezy then said to the stunned crowd, �Damn, I knew that n�a�s knee was bad, but I didn�t know it was that bad! I thought he was just in a wheelchair on T.V.�
