Drake was left silent during a concert in Los Angeles on Tuesday night after the sound cut out mid-show.

The hip-hop newcomer was performing at Bao Steakhouse in L.A. as part of a promotional event, with a star-studded audience including Jamie Foxx, Zoe Saldana and Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

But Drake’s rapping fell quiet half-way through his set when a technical problem affected the sound and halted the show, according to the New York Daily News.

The newspaper reports hip-hop fan Foxx went over to the sound booth to talk to the engineer in charge. A source claims the singer/actor “went nuts on the guy working in the sound booth”.

The botched gig comes just a week after Drake was forced to cancel a show in New York due to over-crowding.
