For his 35th birthday, Lil Wayne received a countless number of birthday shoutouts on social media. But one of the rapper’s more personal birthday nods came courtesy of Drake.
In his message, which featured a photo of Weezy sporting an OVO owl hoodie, Drake offered thanks and praise to the Young Money helmsman.
“Happy Birthday bossssssy! Thank you for the endless tools and the inspiration! I would have been lost at how to maneuver this game without watching you do it first. I remember when they told you that it was impossible to build a skate ramp on your roof…and then I came back and you were skating on your roof. Please never change. Love for life,” Drake wrote in an Instagram post made Wednesday (September 27).
The relationship between the two superstars began when Wayne signed Drake to Young Money Entertainment in 2009. Months before signing with Young Money, Drake released his highly celebrated So Far Gone mixtape, which featured a guest appearance from Wayne.
Despite the hit-or-miss relationship between Wayne and Birdman, Wayne and Drake have always appeared friendly over the years, appearing on a number of records together.
Earlier this year, Drake paid homage to Wayne in a more permanent manner, tattooing an image of the Louisiana MC on his upper arm.
Other artists to give Lil Wayne props on his birthday included Birdman, Nicki Minaj and Rick Ross.
Happy Birthday Lil Tunechi
– Love Aubrey
lol this is comedic that this is a headline
Lmao about people calling wayne the GOAT… comedy!
U would truly be stupid to not recognize that man as one of the greats he still got bars do ya homework youngin u probably a lil yatchy fan lol
Thats a thing now, isnt it?? Someone disagree with me so lets discredit him by accusing him of being a fan of a whack artist. Great way to argue
All of these pictures are suspect. Drake saying bossy with too many S’, Birdman and Wayne wearing each other’s Wife beaters. Minaj looking like a chess piece and Wayne looking like connect 4. Wayne with pour out braids. Trina and Wayne in the background holding up how many fingers for the baddest bitch booty hole…..Why can’t that be me.
GTFOH with that bitch made fruity bosssy bullshit, don’t forget to wipe your chin after your done bitch. 70% of fake drake’s fans wear high heels..the other 30% are queer that wear sandals
Weezy def one of the GoATs!! If u disagree u know nothing about hip hop! Happy bday legend! #freeC5
