Drake’s new album cover is giving us vertigo. Also he’s playing Wells Fargo Center in August.

Quite possibly, it was staged or Photoshopped. And if is indeed real, Drizzy was no doubt safety harnessed and secured out the wazoo.[UPDATE: OMG yes it was totally Photoshopped, unless Drake is actually 12 feet tall sitting down.]

But dang, that is one intensely compelling album cover image Drake chose for his long-awaited Views From the 6, out this Friday on Republic Records. The man sitting on the very top of the 1,815-foot tall CN Tower, surveying his hometown of Toronto – as he said on Twitter last night, it’s for “the city I love and the people in it.” It’s a pretty epic, Cloud City-looking structure and expanse, and I’m getting vertigo just looking it.

Along with the album art, Drake unveiled tour dates that bring him to Philadelphia this summer for a headlining show at Wells Fargo Center on Sunday, August 21st. The Summer Sixteen tour has him joined by Future, who threw down big time at The Fillmore recently — tickets are on sale this Friday, April 29th, at 10 a.m. More information can be found at the XPN Concert Calendar.
