Drake’s concerts not only make headlines, but also provide remarkable experiences.
During his “It’s All a Blur Tour” last week, he noticed a fan in need of help with legal bills for a divorce and decided to step in and act like Santa Claus for the fan.
Videos of Drake promising the fan to pay for his legal fees have gone viral. In the video, the rapper is head saying, “I’m going to get you a good lawyer, and we’re gonna pay for your divorce tonight.”
He added, “You gon’ be single and ready to mingle … While you’re at it, you need to find you somebody to take you out on a date, too. I’ll pay for the date, too, don’t worry about it.”
The “For All the Dogs” star’s kindness to a fan seeking assistance with legal bills for a divorce is not an unusual event.
Earlier in March, during a concert in Kansas City, Missouri, he halted to announce his promise to pay off the mortgage of another fan’s late mother.
In a video released on X, Drake got a message from an audience member during his show. Drake read it and asked, “This is it?”
“You said, ‘[Pay] off my mom’s house, rest in peace.’ Your mom passed away? Alright. And you owe … Oh, this is an outstanding balance right here,” he said into his microphone while interacting with the fan. “This is a lot of money right here.”
“But you know what, I’m gonna pay off your momma’s house for you,” Drake promised as the audience cheered.
He later disclosed to the fan who had requested a donation of “160 bands” ($160,000) for the cause that he was going to pay out of his pocket.
“Imma pay out of my pocket. That’s gonna come from me. Rest in peace to your momma,” Drake said during the show.
During a tour stop in his hometown of Toronto in October, Drake surprised a concertgoer at the Scotiabank Arena by giving them a Mercedes-Benz G-Class.
Rather than hand-picking a fan from the audience, Drake chose a random winner for the luxury award, as evidenced by audience members’ footage.
“So, this is what I’m going to do: I’m going to pick the winning ticket out of this drum right here,” the hitmaker said, as members of his crew brought a raffle drum up to the stage. “I want everybody to be super quiet. I want to hear the winner scream.”
Eventually, Drake saw the fan who was leaving the venue with the new vehicle in one of the upper levels.
