Drake was arrested in Sweden Rumors have turned out to be false

Drake was not detained in Sweden, contrary to what was reported. On late Thursday night (July 14), social media users started to speculate that Drake had been detained by Swedish law enforcement. Unverified sources claim that the rapper and his security were detained at a nightclub on marijuana-related charges. The rumor is untrue, according to a statement from the rapper's representative to XXL.

Drake may have been detained by local police at a Stockholm nightclub, according to internet rumors. The Grammy winner was in his hotel in the Swedish city and had not been detained, his team categorically told THR.

The Canadian rapper, traveling on his own baby blue Boeing 767 dubbed "Air Drake," arrived at Sweden's Arlanda airport on Wednesday at about noon. His arrival was captured in a series of Instagram images. The rapper reportedly visited Ciccio's restaurant and the hipster-friendly stermalm neighborhood of Stockholm after landing in Sweden, according to local media sources. It's unclear whether the rapper is in Sweden for professional or private reasons.

"Free Drake" Trends After Rumor Claims Rapper Was Arrested In Sweden

Someone started a myth about Drake and his crew being detained in Sweden after being reportedly found with marijuana on Instagram. The information quickly spread on Twitter, where people started posting and making jokes about the unproven incident even though no one from Drake's camp has confirmed or disputed the rumors.

Not to be forgotten is the fact that A$AP Rocky was detained in this nation in 2019 due to assault charges. Due to the fact that the previous president helped with Rocky's release, this has led to certain Donald Trump memes being added by Drake's followers. If this were the case, it would have been interesting to observe how Justin Trudeau, the Canadian prime minister, handled the situation.

According to some, the Brittney Griner case—in which the WNBA player was imprisoned for months in Russia after being caught with marijuana while passing through an airport—is what sparked the notion.
