SOHH was in the house for Drake's first Atlanta concert Saturday May, 2nd at the Loft and as ya'll already knew, your boy is very popular among his peers.  Usher, Trey Songz, Teyana Taylor, Bow Wow, Mika Means and Young Money rapper Chucky were just a few of the stars there to see him.

Video cameras were not allowed in the venue, but I was able to catch a snippet of Drake and Trey performing "Successful"

DRIZZY!!!


 

Okay, so I managed to get a little more footage. Wonder if Usher felt a wee bit jealous hearing the girls scream like that for Drake.

I got a quick shot of Teyana Taylor leaving the venue.

So what do you think about Usher coming onstage with Drake? Is he really a fan? Is that his way of staying relevant -- by remaining cool with the up and comers? I'm not entirely convinced that Usher's Chris Brown apology was sincere -- that's why I ask these questions. Drake is clearly coming for the throne -- Trey seems fine with it --but they are clearly homeboys-- so why wouldn't he be? Right about now I'd say Drake is hotter than Usher. But then again, singer/rappers are what's hot right now and we know Ush ain't rappin.

At this point, I don't think Usher needs to do anything but make music how and when he wants to. Yea, his last album didn't sell like he'd probably have liked it to but so what. The next dude can come along and drop a CD on the same day as Usher, out-sell him, and Usher shouldn't even care. He's sold his millions, had his sold-out tours, and had a very long, lucrative career. Nobody can expect to be on top for ever.

Now, if you are saying that Trey is cool with Drake coming for the throne, why would Trey care? He never had a shot anyway. Just sayin'.

LMAO @ females who save access passes..
Drake is that dude...He will eventually shine.

And what the fuck does Teyanna Taylor do??? I've been seeing this chick everywhere but haven't heard a single song...And when I say everywhere, I mean everywhere...She has more buzz than Mya & Ashanti put together and don't even have an album out...
THAT'S CRAZY!!!

And why does she look like a Tom Boy version of RiRi?!?!?!

@ Clo-fresh

dude you ain't never lie, I only heard one cut from the chick...and the crazy shit about that, was the fact that the song that I heard....was about her being everywhere lol. It's like her name has more of a buzz than her actual music, kinda like kim kardashan, she's known but nobody really knows why or what for...


As far as the Usher appearing at a Drake concert deal, I think he recognizes great talent so he's just showing support. Dude still has a good while before he's caught up wit Ush's stardom, so I don't think he is/was jealous. Isn't Drake mainly a rapper anyways?

and for the 100th time, who the hell cares if Usher spoke his piece on the CB situation, it was raw truth that no other artist would've gave you on camera.
