He's getting paid to promote the raptors. Guy hasn't even thrown out a Kyle Lowry allstar vote.

I think this is the very beginning of the Drake backlash that's about to happen...

It's black/gold/silver, dude.

Trust me.

Going away from red is such a bad idea.

SEE!? This is why we can't have nice things.....when everything is going well....it gets F'd up.

Lol. I like the black/gold logo better than the red, personally.

Drakes brand is probably bigger than ours at this point actually... If anything were using Drake

Going towards gold and silver, I feel like it has no connection towards the Raptors, in my head I connect it to Drake and the OVO brand.

I like it and glad that there is no purple in it, It's just that you can't go on saying **** Brooklyn when your logo looks like theirs.

RIP MLSE, Drake, and Sid Lee if black and gold are our primary colors. Raptor fans already hate being called the Drakes, and now they'll have to rep his colors, which look terrible.

That's fine.

Black/gold/silver.

Can you give us a description on what the jersey will look like?

Out of respect to my source I can't.

Nothing earth-shattering though, now that you've seen the logo.

And now the FIRE DRAKE brigade begins, we're awful lol.

Bottom line is the guy is great for recruiting and promotion.

That is some blatant copy right there, and the sad thing is the original didn't look good to begin with.

I really like the idea of uniting the city under a common colour scheme, even if it involves the Leaf colours. I think at this point the franchise has a separate identity so that the whole hockey issue is not really a concern.

I like having a team with a totally different color scheme. Blue/white is too bland imo

I'm more devastated at no purple than anything....

This is just like when Drake first started saying The Six (6ix).. Everyone hated it... Everyones saying it.

I don't know why people here think the Raptors have benefited so much from Drake. The reason they are a good organiztion is 100% because of Masai and Tim, not Drake. To this date Drake hasn't really done anything for the Raptors.

Do you like the new logo?
