Drake Pays Homage to Lil Wayne
Drake has paid respects to his mentor Lil Wayne in a touching comment on Instagram.
We all know how Wayne gave a shot to the Toronto artist by signing him to his Young Money label and promoting him wherever possible. With Nicki Minaj added to the roster, Weezy became the mentor and label head to two of the biggest artists of the 2010s decade. Although Drizzy has always shown big love to Weezy, he made sure he did it publicly one more time.
Drake left a comment on Elliott Wilson’s Instagram post of a video clip taken from Wayne’s interview with the veteran journalist.
