Drake is certainly on a new high as not only did he break streaming records on Spotify and Apple Music with the release of ‘More Life’ he also ticked off another item on his bucket list; finally meeting Sade Adu. The Canadian never hid his admiration for the reclusive British singer and when the pair finally met at his London show, he didn’t hold back as he shared a picture of him sandwiched in between Sade and his mum, grinning from ear to ear.
The star decided to immortalise Sade days later by getting a tattoo of her on his torso‚ proving that even record-breaking artists can fan out as well.
Drake’s admiration for Sade came to light way back in 2010, when the singer said that he wanted to collaborate with her on his album, ‘Thank me later’. According to him, “Her brand is so strong and she’s such an amazing woman. So I just want to try to experiment and see if there’s a way to bring her into the hip-hop world.”
Unfortunately Drake’s dreams did not come true, and Sade reportedly chose to collaborate with Jay Z instead. Fingers crossed; hopefully there will be a collaboration soon.
And then last year, during Drake’s 30th birthday, he woke up on October 24 to an epic surprise; Sade had sent him a framed picture of herself with the message, “The 24th of October 1986 was a good day… Shine on, Drake. Love Sade,” scrawled across it. Sharing the moment on Instagram Drake captioned the post, “Woke up to see the most beautiful woman ever in my house.”
