According to People, popular Canadian rapper and singer Drake surprised a fan at the Frost Bank Financial Centre performance in San Antonio, Texas, with a unique present.
In reference to the song from his most recent album, “For All the Dogs,” which features Sexyy Red and SZA, 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 video that was posted on X (formerly Twitter).
“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 gave a pregnant fan $25,000 after she held up a sign saying, “I’m five months pregnant, can you be my Rich Baby Daddy?”

Drake then offered the fan a gift. As he said amidst roaring applause, “Second of all, I’d love to give you 25,000 dollars so you can be a rich baby mama.”
The ‘First Person Shooter’ rapper has reportedly made it a practice to show off his fans with lavish gifts during the past six months, according to People.
He carried a pink Hermes Birkin bag onto the stage in Los Angeles in August, looking across the crowd to find a lucky recipient. “Drake ain’t cheap!” he said to the crowd before gesturing to a spectator and giving them the high-end purse, which typically sells for between $10,000 and $30,000.
Drake paid $50,000 in October to a fan who was set to come to the event with his fiancée, but they had broken up a while earlier.
The Grammy winner promised to pay off a fan’s late mother’s house at a performance at the T-Mobile Centre in Kansas City, Missouri, earlier this month, making it his largest gift to date, according to People.
