Drake was seen singing as he enjoyed a drink at a glamorous bar in Manchester city centre<\/a> during his recent run of shows.<\/p>\n

The ‘One Dance’ singer was set to play four shows at the Co-op Live arena, with dates in both July and August as part of his huge $OME $PECIAL $HOWS 4 U tour.<\/p>\n

But he left fans bitterly disappointed after Monday night’s performance (July 28) was cancelled and rescheduled at the last minute <\/a>due to ‘travel logistics’ and a ‘ferry schedule’.<\/p>\n

The third sell-out gig was instead moved to a new date of August 5, the day after his already planned performance the day before at the same venue.<\/p>\n

The Canadian singer also caught eyes after he featured three different Manchester landmarks<\/a> in his latest video <\/a>teasing the upcoming release of his new project Iceman.<\/p>\n

As well as bringing Central Cee out on stage during a gig last Friday, the pair were also spotted filming a video together <\/a>at an iconic Manchester landmark – Victoria Baths.<\/a><\/p>\n

In ICEMAN EPISODE 2, uploaded to Drake’s YouTube channel<\/a> on July 26, the rappers can be seen walking around the Edwardian interiors of the Grade II* listed baths on Hathersage Road.<\/p>\n

After some moody shots of Manchester at night, the video begins with a shot of the Drake inside Sureshot Brewery, which operates from under one of the railway arches lining Sheffield Street. He is then seen exiting the brewery before walking away towards Travis Street and later, Piccadilly train station.<\/p>\n

In a new series of posts on Instagram, the rapper and singer shared a video with his 142 million followers of him enjoying a drink while singing along at the Louis restaurant in Spinningfields<\/a>, Manchester city centre.<\/p>\n

While clearly enjoying some downtime from the UK-leg of his tour, he is seen grooving at a table and looking directly into the camera while sitting at a booth in the venue on Hardman Street and singing along to a jazz version of TLC’s No Scrubs.<\/p>\n
