Drake remains a class act.
The OVO rapper teamed up with LeBron James to surprise a family with a life-changing gift. He captured the moment in an Instagram video filmed at Toronto’s Harbour 60 restaurant, which is where he shot his 2011 “Headlines” video.
”Lot of memorable nights in this room in my life, for sure,” he tells the camera. “Speaking of memorable nights, I had an incredible night last night playing roulette on Stake.”
The video then cuts to footage of Drizzy winning big on the Bitcoin gambling website.
“So yeah, as you can see, I was clearly excited,” he continued. “Anytime I get blessed like that, I always think it’s good karma that needs to be transferred. So, I play for fun and I play in hopes that I can spread love always. So tonight, I’m doing a dinner with my brother [James] … We’re doing a Lobos dinner tonight.”
Drake goes on to say that he and James also invited a student-athlete named Michael, who plays basketball for the Royal Crown Academic School in Toronto. The teen would be accompanied by his mom, whom Drake described as “one of the hardest-working women.”
“We’re gonna bless them tonight, so I’m looking forward to seeing their reaction,” he says.
The video then shows Michael and his mom meeting with Drake and the Lakers star. After exchanging some hugs and a few kind words, Drake pulls out stacks of $100,000 in cash and hands it Michael’s mom.
“Hopefully it makes this journey a little easier,” Drake tells her.
Moments later, the Certified Lover Boy artist presents Michael’s coach with a pair of shoes and some cold hard cash. However, his generosity didn’t end there. Drake then puts his arm around James and pledges to make a hefty donation to the athlete’s I Promise School.
