Derik John Baker returned to hometown Toronto last week with his band Virginia To Vegas, performing at the iHeartRadio Jingle (Bell) Ball at the ACC on Dec. 9 where he was bushwhacked by the Wax Records team armed with a trio of big shiny awards.


A platinum award for “We Are Stars,” f. Alyssa Reid, and two gold certifications marking the success of “Lights Out” and “Selfish" were presented. VTV’s latest, “Emotions,” is off to a solid start too, Wax Records’ Andrea Guernsey assures.

In the photo is the Wax Records team, the DMD guys and iHeartRadio topper Rob Farina.  And, of course, Virginia to Vegas’s Derik Baker.

Donald Trump’s White House Puts ‘MAGA’ Spin on Drake’s ‘Iceman’ Album Cover, Faces Backlash

"Gas is 12 trillion dollars a gallon and y'all on here playing around!" one person commented.

The Donald Trump administration is jumping in on the Drake album hype, with the White House sharing an edited version of the rapper’s new Iceman album cover that immediately drew backlash.

The White House shared its own rendering of the Iceman artwork on X on Friday (May 15) — the same day Drake dropped the LP alongside two other surprise albums, Maid of Honour and Habibti. The original cover features a man’s hand in a crystal Michael Jackson-esque glove, but in the White House’s edited version, that same hand holds a chain necklace with a “MAGA” pendant.
