World-famous music artist Drake is giving out the gift of Dave’s Hot Chicken for his birthday next week.
On Thursday, Oct. 24, from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., metro Detroiters can visit Dave’s Hot Chicken in Dearborn, Troy, Warren, Southfield, Shelby Township, East Lansing, or Howell to pick up their present: a free Dave’s Hot Chicken Slider.
The popular Nashville-style hot chicken chain started seven years ago in a parking lot in East Hollywood, and has since become the fastest growing restaurant chain in America. In 2021, Drake became an investor in Dave’s Hot Chicken after trying the food and meeting the founders, and this is his third year celebrating by giving away free food for his birthday.
“We love that Drake is choosing to celebrate his birthday with Dave’s guests,” Bill Phelps, Dave’s Hot Chicken’s CEO, said in a press release. “As this brand expands from coast-to-coast and abroad, it’s the authenticity of the food, founders, team members and investors, like Drake, which ensure we’ll continue to blow peoples’ minds.”
Anyone who visits a local Dave’s in person and scans their Dave’s Hot Chicken app will receive their free slider, thanks to Drake.
