Drake who on his titled track “March 14” off of his 2018 album Scorpion states,
“Single father, I hate when I hear it
I used to challenge my parents on every album
Now I’m embarrassed to tell them I ended up as a co-parent
Always promised the family unit
I wanted it to be different because I’ve been through it”
Drake has referenced to being raised by his mother at the time as a single mother numerous times in the past, and wants to ultimately change that narrative of black fathers not being in the child’s life consistently.

“sophie knows better, ask your baby mother, cleaned up her for IG, but the stench is on her, a baby’s involved, it’s deeper than rap, we talking character, let me keep with the facts, you are hiding a child, let that boy come home”
Octobers Very Own, who addresses these allegations on “Emotionless” off of Scorpion,
“I wasn’t hiding my kid from the world, I was hiding the world from my kid; From empty souls who just who just wake up and look to debate, until you staring at your seed, you could never relate”
The Canadian rapper shares some heartfelt posts of his son on his page, worth mentioning Drake says,
“Laughter is your best medicine, but tears can also be a powerful release. Let go of any judgement you may have around that. Remember that you are never alone, and if you need to be reminded of that ask for support and it will show up”
