Drake Wants to Apologize to All Janices for His Song Janice STFU. Here’s How He Plans to Do It

Entry is limited to guests with government ID showing Janice as the legal first name, after complaints over the song "Janice STFU."

  • On Sunday, June 28, Toronto-born rapper Drake will host 'Janice Apology Parties' across North America in New York City, Los Angeles, Miami, Toronto, and Houston, requiring attendees to present valid government ID confirming their legal first name is 'Janice'.
  • These gatherings serve as an apology for Drake's hit single 'Janice STFU,' released last month on his ICEMAN album, after fans complained the track targeted everyone named 'Janice'.
  • 'Janice STFU' surpassed 100 million streams, marking Drake's 14th chart-topping hit, while rapper Joe Budden jokingly claimed the 'Janice' mantle on his podcast after listeners speculated the song dissed him.
  • Guests at the Toronto party must present government-issued identification at Cactus Club on Adelaide Street West from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., with organizers strictly prohibiting nicknames, middle names, or last names.
  • Following the release of ICEMAN, MAID OF HONOUR, and HABIBTI in May, Drake's apology parties leverage the viral popularity of 'Janice STFU' to maintain momentum on the Billboard Hot 100.
