Drake is Throwing an Apology Party for Every 'Janice' in Toronto This Weekend

In celebration of his chart-topping hit “Janice STFU,” the Canadian rapper will be hosting an exclusive party at Toronto’s Cactus Club on Saturday afternoon (June 27), and only people named Janice are allowed in.

If your name is Janice, Drake has an apology for you.

According to Virgin Radio Toronto, the 6 God is throwing a special party this Sunday at Toronto’s Cactus Club on Adelaide Sreet West from 1 to 4 pm, exclusively open to people named Janice. The event is meant to serve as an apology to all Janices of the world after the rapper named one of his Iceman cuts “Janice STFU,” referencing a vocal sample on the song. Given the phrase's confrontational undertone, Drake wants to make amends with any Janices who may have taken offence.
