Drake has delivered another act of kindness after receiving an outlandish request from a fan holding up a sign during his latest appearance on his It’s All a Blur tour with J. Cole.
In a video which made the rounds online on Sunday (March 17), a fan is seen near the front of the audience holding up a sign which reads: “I’m five months pregnant, can you be my Rich Baby Daddy?”

“Well, first of all, I don’t wanna offend your real baby daddy,” Drake replies after reading the sign out loud, “but I’d love to first of all get you out the pits so we can put you somewhere safe like the VIP or some shit because you can’t be pregnant and bouncing around when I start playing some of these slappers, we can’t have you getting pushed around. Second of all, I’d love to give you $25,000 so you can be a rich baby mama.”
The woman’s sign was an overt reference to his collaboration with Sexyy Red and SZA, a song about Drake trying to convince a girl to leave her man to be with him.
It is not the first time Drake has given away money while on tour.
At a recent stop in Kansas City, Drake learned that one of his fans had a large mortgage debt after their parents passed away.

Grabbing an item from the crowd, Drake read a message from the fan out loud, then proceeded to ask for clarification.
“Your mom passed away?,” he says in footage from the touching moment. “Oh this is the outstanding balance right here? That’s a lot of money right there. But you know what? Imma pay your whole mortgage for you. That’s 160 bands but, Imma pay out of my pocket, that’s gonna come from me.”
Drake was also generous when he appeared in Pittsburgh.
About three-quarters of the way through the show, Drake told the audience to hug random people, because one never knows what they might be going through. He looked out in the audience and spotted a fan holding up a sign that said, “Ur music carried me through cancer,” wherein he promised the survivor $50,000 for her trouble.

He did something similar a week earlier in Nashville when he gave a cancer survivor $100,000.
