Speaking to fans in between songs, the Canadian rapper said, "So what I'm gonna do, I kinda actually started last night to be honest with you. But I think what I’ma do after this is go home, and I’ma make a new album so I can come back to London next year and we can do this again.

His seven-date residency at the London O2 Arena included the rapper bringing out some huge names, including Ghetts, Krept & Konan, and J Hus the day he got released from prison after serving a sentence for carrying a knife.

Last night, he topped it all off by bringing out esteemed rapper Dave, and North Carolina's J. Cole.
