Rapper Drake, born Aubrey Drake Graham, crafted an unforgettable evening at Madison Square Garden during his ongoing 'It's All A Blur' tour, creating a heartwarming spectacle that has left his fans awestruck. The 36-year-old hip hop sensation shared a tender moment on stage with his mother, Sandi Graham, that has been making waves across social media platforms.
An Ode to His Rock, His Mom
Drake took a different approach from the norm, inviting his mom to join him on stage rather than having her watch from the wings. This was not just a simple stage appearance though - Drake serenaded Sandi with "Look What You've Done", a song from his 2012 album 'Take Care'. The emotional tribute to his mother, uncle, and grandmother, rendered Sandi tearful and led to a poignant embrace between mother and son. "This song always makes me cry, such a touching tribute to his mother," one fan penned on Twitter, exemplifying the emotional resonance of the moment for many present.
A Visible Love Story
Love for his mother and son have frequently found their way into Drake's music. His hit from 2018, 'God's Plan,' famously stated that he only loved 'his bed and his mother'. Notably, last year Drake added to his collection of tattoos with a heartfelt tribute to his mother Sandi - her initials stylishly inked above his left eye.
But Drake's past wasn't always filled with success and affection. He candidly spoke about his tough childhood in an interview with Complex, saying, "I didn't grow up happy. I wasn't in a happy home. My mother was very sick. We were very poor, like broke."
In an unexpected revelation, the rapper also opened up about his views on marriage, referring to it as an "ancient" institution. While he has not entirely ruled out the idea, he admitted to struggling with offering the consistency a partner might need, primarily due to his career taking center stage.
Still, despite these feelings, Drake has a child of his own. He co-parents six-year-old son Adonis with French painter Sophie Brussaux, who relocated to Canada to maintain a peaceful co-parenting relationship with the hip hop artist.
As reported by the Daily Mail, this night at Madison Square Garden stands as a testament to Drake's growth and his enduring love for the woman who has stood by him through the highs and lows.
