Drake, the renowned hip-hop artist, thrilled fans during one of his final stops on the “It’s All a Blur Tour” at Scotiabank Arena in his hometown of Toronto. In a moment that left concertgoers in awe, the Grammy-winning rapper surprised an unsuspecting fan by giving away a luxurious Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon, a high-end vehicle with a starting price of $139,900.
Instead of personally selecting a lucky fan from the audience, as he has done in the past, Drake decided to pick a random winner. In a fan-recorded video, Drake is seen turning a raffle drum, generating excitement among the crowd. He then announces, “So, this is what I’m going to do: I’m going to pick the winning ticket out of this drum right here,” before urging everyone to be silent so he can hear the winner’s reaction.
As the audience eagerly watches, Drake reaches into the drum, pulls out a ticket, and announces the winning number, which is “17482.” With enthusiasm, he spots the fortunate fan, who was seated in one of the upper levels of Scotiabank Arena. Playfully, he calls out to the fan, saying, “They got ’em? They up top? You better bring your ass down here. We’re going to send somebody up there to check that ticket.”
The exact model of the Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon that Drake raffled off is not specified, but the basic model of this luxury SUV carries a starting price of $139,900.
During his concert the previous night in Toronto, Drake also demonstrated his generosity by responding to a fan holding a sign that revealed she had been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS). Drake paused his performance to address the fan’s request, saying, “This one’s important to me. Her sign says, ‘I just found out I have MS, will you help make my night?’”
Drake shared a personal connection to MS, revealing that his friend and collaborator, record producer 40 (Noah James Shebib), had been diagnosed with the condition at a young age. He promised the fan that he would connect her with 40 and provide whatever support it took to ensure she received the best medical care in the world, emphasizing, “You got my word — and you can come back tomorrow night!”
Throughout his “It’s All a Blur Tour,” which commenced in July, Drake has displayed his generosity on multiple occasions. He gifted $50,000 to a fan going through a break-up and gave away an expensive Birkin bag, among other surprises.
Drake released his eighth solo studio album, titled “For All the Dogs,” earlier this month. The album features collaborations with artists such as 21 Savage, Bad Bunny, Chief Keef, J. Cole, Lil Yachty, SZA, and many more. However, during his Table For One radio show on SiriusXM’s Sound 42, Drake hinted that this album might be his last for a while.
The rapper expressed his intention to take a break from making music to focus on his health. He stated, “I probably won’t make music for a little bit. I’m gonna be honest. I got some other things I need to do for some other people that I made promises to, but I probably won’t make music for a little bit. I’m gonna be real with you. I need to focus on my health first and foremost and I’ll talk about that soon enough.”
Drake clarified that he isn’t dealing with major health issues but emphasized the importance of prioritizing his well-being. He mentioned experiencing persistent stomach problems over the years and expressed his desire to address these health concerns.
