Drake gifted Rolls-Royce he used to rent before he made it big Back to video

Alongside a 14-year-old video of himself in a Rolls-Royce, Drake wrote on Instagram: “Back in 2007 we used to finesse this Rolls Royce Phantom rental to convince people in the city we were destined to make it. I used to scrape together 5k a month somehow to keep up appearances. (sic)”

Drake used renting the vehicle as a means of motivating himself to reach the top of the music industry.

The Hotline Bling hitmaker – who is now one of the world’s best-selling artists – continued: “Even though I don’t recommend putting yourself in financial trouble for material things I realize now that this was just my way of extreme manifesting. I needed to see it and feel it and have it to believe that I could see and feel and have anything I wanted. Today in 2021 my brother @futuretheprince tracked down the exact car I use to stress over and gifted it to me … it’s mine now. Manifestation complete (sic).”

Drake subsequently thanked his followers for their birthday messages.

He wrote: “Thank you for all the love and appreciation and gifts and texts and dm’s…more than just loved I feel truly appreciated and that is the only gift I ever needed. (sic)”
