Drake at 2014 ESPYs: Chris Brown Joins Skit + Performs "Side Pieces"
Drake was pretty busy on Wednesday night (July 16th) at the 2014 ESPYs. These accolades (that mean, “Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly Awards”) are given annually by ESPN. Drake was the host of the 2014 edition, which took place at the Nokia Theatre L.A. Live in Los Angeles, California. But more than hosting he did!

The skit
The Canadian rapper left everyone at the venue and in home watching speechless when during the hilarious "Drake vs. Blake" skit, where Drake and Clippers power forward Blake Griffin jokingly try and one up each other, Chris Brown made an appearance! (as the 'surgeon'). This re-confirms the feud between the former Rihanna lovers is over.
The 'new songs'
Drake debuted two ‘original’ songs at 2014 ESPYs (told you he did more than just hosting!). The first one was "Honorable Mentions", a special tribute to the biggest losers of the last year. And, "Side Pieces" (this I like!), a duet with R&B singer Brian McKnight. “This goes out to all my side pieces / You know that you'll never be the main one”, sings Drake in the melodic song.
