Drake’s London O2 shows have been a major celebration of the UK music scene. So far he’s brought out Giggs, Section Boyz and Dave as well as countless others.
The latest person to snap a pic with the Boy is So Solid’s Asher D, AKA actor Ashley Walters, AKA the Top Boy himself.

Drake is a massive fan of Top Boy, the channel 4 drama series starring Walters and Kano which shockingly only got two seasons. He loves the show so much that in October 2015 even offered to fund a third instalment. By April last year it was confirmed that he was working towards something with Walters and Skepta on board as well.
Speaking to Beats 1 Skep said, “We wanna do bigger things than just our crew. Even with the Top Boy series and Ashley Walters… Them two have been working closely and I’ve been making sure on the creative direction wave with Drake about the series, just making greatness with it. The whole style what’s going on in London, the sound.”
Could this picture be the beginning of the show’s creation? It’s been fairly quiet on the Top Boy front recently, with all three artists working on other projects. However we can’t imagine that the two would meet and not discuss bringing back Sully and Dushane.
We’ll have to keep our ears to the ground for this one.
