Drake Gifts $25,000 to Pregnant Fan at Texas Concert Who Asked Him to ‘Be My Rich Baby Daddy’
At the rapper’s concert at Frost Bank Financial Center in San Antonio, Texas, on Saturday, he helped out yet another fan by granting their wish — the latest in a string of requests he’s completed during his It’s All a Blur Tour, a joint venture with J. Cole.
In a video shared on X (formerly Twitter), Drake, 37, struck up a conversation with a female fan in the crowd who was holding up a poster that said “I’m five months pregnant, can you be my Rich Baby Daddy?” in a nod to the track off his latest album For All the Dogs, which features Sexyy Red and SZA.
“Well first of all, I don’t wanna offend your real baby daddy, but I would love to — first of all, get you out of the pit so we can put you somewhere safe like the VIP or some s—,” he told the fan. “Cause you can’t be pregnant getting bounced around. When I start playing some of these slappers, we can’t have you getting pushed around.”
Drake then offered the fan a gift, as he said amidst roaring applause, “Second of all, I’d love to give you $25,000 so you can be a rich baby mama.”
The “First Person Shooter” rapper has made something of a habit of offering generous gifts to fans in his audiences over the last six months. In August, he walked on stage in Los Angeles with a pink Hermés Birkin bag and scanned the crowd for a lucky recipient.
