Drake’s Appearance at Ella Langley’s Show Has Fans Wondering About a Collab

Drake is continuing to show love to Ella Langley.

On Saturday (Aug. 22), Drizzy was spotted in the crowd at the country star’s concert at Simmons Bank Arena in North Little Rock, Arkansas.

Nearly a week after Drake made headlines for praising Langley’s songwriting abilities on social media, the 6 God was seen singing along to her smash hit “Choosin’ Texas” while standing alongside ERNEST, one of the openers on her Dandelion Tour.

Drake appeared fully immersed in the moment, even making his way onto the venue’s big screens as he sang and danced along to “Choosin’ Texas.” The hit recently logged its 18th week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, giving Langley the fourth-longest reign in the chart’s history.

Last Sunday (Aug. 16), Drake became a member of Ella’s Fellas after commenting on an Instagram post recapping her recent Texas shows. “Goated pen,” the superstar rapper wrote alongside a pen emoji. Drake also gave “Choosin’ Texas” a spin while DJing at a Houston club in July.

Drake’s appearance at Langley’s show has left some fans wondering whether a musical collaboration could be in the works. “WE NEED THAT COLLAB,” one person wrote on X alongside a raising hands emoji. Another observer speculated, “He’s gonna sample it I just gotta feeling.” A third added, “The collab we all never thought we needed. Send it!”

Drake’s admiration for Langley appears to be mutual. The Alabama native posted a TikTok video on Aug. 15 lip-syncing along to Drizzy and Lil Wayne’s 2011 hit “HYFR (Hell Ya F—king Right).” Langley rapped Weezy’s chorus bar-for-bar from the Grammy-nominated Take Care track.

In recent days, some Drake fans have also speculated that the Toronto MC could be preparing to release even more music. After dropping a trifecta of albums, the rapper posted a “FEAR OF MISSING OUT” CD case to Instagram on Aug. 21. The CD case features a black backdrop and white lettering, while Drizzy offered no context for the photo beyond a video camera emoji.

A full-on collaboration with a country artist would mark a first for Drake, who previously experimented with singing over acoustic guitar on HABIBTI’s opener “Rusty Intro.” Langley, meanwhile, has already dipped her toe into hip-hop, teaming up with BigXthaPlug for “Hell at Night” in 2025, which peaked at No. 26 on the Billboard Hot 100.
