Drake and Lenny Kravitz were among the headliners to perform at the winter edition of the LuisaViaRoma for UNICEF charity gala held in St Barts on Thursday.
But before hitting the stage at the swanky Emeraude Hotel, Drake (born Aubrey Drake Graham) and his crew grabbed lunch at Shellona Greek restaurant on Shell Beach.
Looking rested and relaxed, the rapper/singer stepped out in a stylish purple velour button-up with matching flared pants.

He also sported a pair of white slip-on shoes, thick-frame glasses, and had his dark locks pushed back off his face in braids.
Boasting ‘an exceptional setting facing the Caribbean Sea’, the Find Your Love star eventually went inside the restaurant to enjoy some of the traditional Greek dishes.
It appears Drake has been enjoying some fun in the sun for the last couple of weeks, considering that he previously boasted about being in Turks and Caicos.
He shared a few photos taken on the islands, which are are southeast of Mayaguana in the Bahamas island chain, including a golf outing posted December 16.
