During his “It’s All a Blur” tour with J. Cole at Frost Bank Financial Center in San Antonio, Texas on Saturday, March 16, 2024, Drake was in the news for a very special reason.
A video that went viral from the concert shows Drake spotting a young pregnant woman holding a sign soliciting him to be the rich father of her unborn child. This nod to his hit song “Rich Baby Daddy” featuring Sexyy Red and SZA did not go unnoticed.
In the video, Drake jokes, “She’s holding a sign saying I’m five months pregnant, can you be the rich father of my child? Well, first of all, I don’t want to offend your real father, but I would love to.”
Attentive to the safety of the mother-to-be, Drake takes her out of the crowded pit to be installed in a safer place, such as the VIP boxes. He then says, “Because you can’t be pregnant and get pushed around. When I’m going to play my big hits, we can’t let you get pushed around. Secondly, I’d like to give you $25,000 to become a rich mother.”
This moment of generosity and humor was greatly appreciated by the fans present, and Drake’s reaction was widely relayed on social networks, demonstrating once again his closeness to his audience.
This episode highlighted Drake’s caring side and humor, adding a touch of emotion to an already memorable concert for all the fans in attendance that evening.
