Drake is gearing up to release his upcoming album ‘Views From The 6’ and Miami residents may get a free T-shirt out of it.

The Toronto rapper announced on Twitter a ‘Views’ pop-up shop at 500 NW 23rd St. in Wynwood. The store opens at 5 p.m. Tuesday.

Drake, who is a frequent guest at Miami Heat games, announced a similar pop-up in New York Monday, and fans lined up for blocks to get a ‘Views’ shirt “compliments of the company.”

Beats By Dre is sponsoring the event and tweeted a photo of a ‘Views’ truck parked outside of The Wynwood Building.

His new album is due on April 29th on Apple Music.
