Rapper Drake has canceled some of his upcoming tour dates in order to better coincide with the school year, so that more students can attend his shows, reports Teen Music.

Originally, the six-stop Club Paradise tour was meant to kick off November 9 in Ohio and wrap up November 20 in North Carolina. The new dates will be "moved to when students are back from the Christmas/New Year break so that I can get to more schools," the rapper wrote on his official blog.

Drake has pulled out of shows in Columbus, Ohio (November 9); Fairfax Virginia (November 15); Columbia, South Carolina (November 19); and Greensboro, North Carolina (November 20).

So far, Ticketmaster is still selling tickets for his November 10 concert in University Park, Pennsylvania and his November 13 show in Champaign, Illinois. The rescheduled dates have not yet been announced: the rapper has said that they will be "released in the next week."
