Fans React To Drake, Backstreet Boys Performance

Drake recently made a surprise appearance on stage with the Backstreet Boys where he joined them during their hit song, I Want It That Way.

Fans were pleasantly surprised and felt that the performance was one they didn’t even know they needed.

While the performance was obviously a fun time for both the group and the solo rapper, Drake was especially excited to be able to join them for this particular song.

According to TMZ, he and I Want It That Way have some history and it may have even inspired him to make music. 

He explained how when he was a young teenager, a girl asked him to dance to the song and it made him feel instantly cool. He said,

“It was the first time I ever felt acknowledged, it was the first time I ever felt, you know, like I had a shot at being cool.”

While it’s hard to imagine a time when Drake wasn’t cool, this was clearly a great moment for fans and all the performers involved. The boy band even left the last line of the song just for Drake to sing, which of course he nailed.

Fans who were lucky enough to witness it couldn’t stop talking about it on social media. Those who saw it live and those who watched video clips were equally impressed and felt like Drake was the perfect addition to the band.

The Backstreet Boys are currently in the midst of their DNA World Tour. The tour will take them all over the United States, Asia, Europe and Australia.  While it’s not likely that Drake will be appearing in any other performance with the boy band, you never know who else may pop in and make a surprise appearance during their tour.
