If you're planning on travelling to Milwaukee for Games 1 and 2 in the Eastern Conference Finals series between the Raptors and Bucks, don't expect to hear any of Drake's music on the radio.

103.7 KISS-FM in Milwaukee is shutting down all of the Canadian hip-hop artist's music until after the series.


"Drake's a big smack-talker on the basketball court," one host from KISS-FM says in a Twitter video. "I say until the series is over we take a break from playing Drake. 

"No more Drake until the series is done."

Who knows if taking a "break from Drake" — as they've called it — will be a positive or a negative for the Bucks and their fans, but while they're at it they may want to take a look at putting a ban on The Weeknd, Justin Bieber or Shawn Mendes' music too. I mean, if you're going to do it, go all in.

Does Kardinal Offishall get radio play in Milwaukee? If so, ban him as well. 

At the end of the day, it's all in good fun and a very small fun side storyline heading into the Conference Finals.
