Drake, Lil Wayne Debut 'Street Fighter'-Inspired Tour App

Drake just wrapped up his 5th annual OVO Fest in Toronto and now he and Lil Wayne are gearing up for their forthcoming tour.

According to Billboard, the two YMCMB rappers just released an interactive app designed for the tour. The app will be available on both Google Android and Apple iOS.

The magazine's site reports the DvsLW app, a collaboration with tour sponsor Capcom (the video-game publisher behind Street Fighter and many others), will enable fans to select their city, pick a side (Drake or Lil Wayne) during each night's rap battle.

The app also allows concertgoers to utilize a "button mash" as if they were playing the latest Ultra Street Fighter IV video game to help their favorite rapper "power up" and impact their performances in real time.

"We are both thrilled that our fans will get the unique opportunity to join us in this interactive experience," Drake and Lil Wayne said in a statement.

The "Drake Vs Lil Wayne" tour kicks off Friday (Aug. 8) night at the Darien Lake Performing Arts Center.
