Drake, the Canadian rapper, made headlines when he became a pregnant fan’s ‘rich baby daddy’ for the night by gifting her $25,000 during his It’s All a Blur Tour with J. Cole at Frost Bank Center in San Antonio. This generous act was inspired by the fan’s sign that read: “I’m five months pregnant, can you be my Rich Baby Daddy?”
The sign was a playful nod to Drake’s popular song “Rich Baby Daddy,” featuring Sexyy Red and SZA, from his album For All the Dogs. Appreciating the creativity, Drake immediately arranged for her to have a seating upgrade.
In a moment captured on video, Drake addressed the fan, saying, “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–t. 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’s generosity is well-known, and this act of kindness to upgrade the pregnant fan’s seat was likely influenced by his experience witnessing chaos at Travis Scott’s concert.
Although Drake didn’t formally accept the fan’s proposal, he ensured her comfort by providing a $25,000 gift to help her through her pregnancy. “Second of all, I’d love to give you $25,000 so you can be a rich baby mama,” he said, delighting the crowd.
Drake, the globally renowned rapper, has an estimated net worth of around $250 million as of 2024. His wealth comes from album sales, tour revenues, and major advertising contracts. In addition, Drake invests in real estate and owns the OVO brand, which spans from fashion to whiskey. He is also known for his lavish lifestyle and significant charitable donations to support the community.
