The video then transitions to footage of Drizzy winning on the Bitcoin gambling website.

“So yeah, as you can see, I was clearly excited,” he continued. “Anytime I get blessed like that, I always think it’s good karma that needs to be transferred. So, I play for fun and I play in hopes that I can spread love always. So tonight, I’m doing a dinner with my brother [James] … We’re doing a Lobos dinner tonight.”

The Certified Lover Boy artist then says that he and James also invited student-athlete, Michael, who plays basketball for the Royal Crown Academic School in Toronto.

Now what the teen didn’t know is that he and his mom, who is joining him for the dinner are about to receive a surprise by Drake and James.

“Hopefully it makes this journey a little easier,” Drake tells Michael’s mom, after also describing her as “one of the hardest-working women.”

“Take a little burden off your chest, off your heart,” James adds.

“Am I dreaming?” Michael mom’s says.

Drake doesn’t stop there, he then presents Michael’s coach who is also at the dinner with a pair of shoes and some money.
