It went from 0 to 100 real quick.
A female concertgoer at Drake’s Saturday show in the Los Angeles area grabbed a sweaty towel the rapper threw into the crowd — sparking a scuffle with a male concertgoer. The altercation eventually caught the attention of Drake, 36, who rushed to the female fan’s aid.
According to footage that went viral on social media, the lucky woman can be seen leaning over a barrier to retrieve Drake’s rag as he walked backstage.
Almost immediately, a tussle ensues. Several fans whipped out their phones, with Drake getting involved as the commotion heats up.
“Give it to her. Are you crazy? Are you dumb?” the “Hotline Bling” singer shouted while flanked by his security team.
Drake then reassures the woman: “I’mma send someone up there.”
The “Her Loss” hitmaker was already exercising caution at the concert, as his 5-year-old son, Adonis, was in attendance.
“Hey, look, I’mma be honest with you,” he told the crowd as the show got underway.
“I can’t talk about titties tonight in LA because my son is at the show for the first time ever. So we have to keep this real PG tonight. Y’all keep them bras on.”
The Post reached out to the “One Dance” singer for comment.
This is not the first time Drake has come to a fan’s aid at one of his shows.
He halted a January set at the Apollo Theatre when a concertgoer fell from the mezzanine balcony into the audience below.
“Just gotta make sure somebody’s OK,” Drake told the crowd after a crew member alerted him to what happened.
Although Saturday’s altercation did not make its way on stage, several performers have recently found themselves under attack from overzealous fans.
In June, Bebe Rexha was injured in NYC when a fan hurled his phone, smacking her in the eye and spurring her to cancel the remainder of her concert to seek medical attention.
The phone-thrower, identified as 27-year-old Nicolas Malvagna, was detained by police and charged with assault, aggravated harassment, attempted assault and harassment.
Mere days after Rexha’s attack, Ava Max, 29, sustained an eye injury while performing in Los Angeles after a fan managed to get on stage and slap the “Not Your Barbie Girl” singer.
Country singer Kelsea Ballerini, 29, was also attacked on stage, by a fan who chucked a bracelet at the “If You Go Down (I’m Goin’ Down Too)” singer, forcing her to halt the show for a while.
Taking this to a tawdry new level last month, a fan hurled what appeared to be a sex toy at Lil Nas X, prompting him to question the audience: “Who threw they p – – – y?”
