Champagne Papi Fun Facts - Trivia Answers You Need to Know for Every Drake Quiz

Aubrey Drake Graham is one of the best known rappers in the world. With a global audience, Drake is really at the top of the rapping pyramid. While his career speaks for himself, with every passing day, this man gets a few new fans. A few thousands is more likely, to be honest. It's hard to expect that every new fan knows everything about him. But, the moment you become a fan of Drake the desire to learn more and more about him, his personality, habits, hobbies, and lifestyle becomes absolute.

There's nothing wrong with it. After all Drake is one of the more charismatic artists of our age who has it easy to attract people to his cause. We're lucky he's not a politician as he would reign  for life. Joking aside, if you're new to Drizzy fandom, some of the answers to the FAQ about Drake we're going to answer below will help you get closer to knowing Drake. Without further ado, let's get started with talking about our favourite rapper.

Drizzy is one of the best rappers around. Considering that he conquered the global music market, people usually assume that he's American. Modern rap originates from the United States of America, so it is only natural to think that one of the best rappers in the world comes from the US. Yet, that's not true. Drake is from North America, but he's Canadian. Champagne Papi is a Toronto native and he's really proud of it.

Drake loves all sports in general, but his weak spot is basketball. As a born Canadian, and a man from Toronto, Drake is a passionate fan of Toronto Raptors. He's often pictured at his courtside seats, where he cheers on his beloved team. If you remember the Raptors' championship run, Drizzy was always there serving as an mascot for the team, getting into altercations with opposing players. Many people will claim that Toronto wouldn't have  an NBA championship without Drake. We tend to agree.

Drake has been in the world of entertainment for almost three decades. But, music wasn't his first love. Instead, Aubrey started as an actor. His biggest role to date was the one in the Canadian hit show Degrassi: The Next Generation where he played a paralysed former basketball player Jimmy Brooks. Of course, he was into rapping back in the day when he was acting and some of his first chops as a singer were done in that show. Considering that this show didn't reach the global popularity the singer himself later did, we can really state that he started from nothing before reaching the top of global music charts.

Yes, you could say so. Drake is a well known fan of all things gambling and sports betting. When he's not playing slots, he's out there sports betting. Some of the biggest bets in gambling history were made by this Canadian rapper. As an avid NBA fan he often bets on basketball. But, he's not shy from trying his luck in UFC and boxing, as well in the NFL. When there's a big sports event on the horizon you can be sure that Drake is going to bet on it. He's no stranger to soccer, and he's often pictured wearing the jersey of popular sports teams regardless of the sport, which brings us to the next point.

If you follow the rap scene and sports alike, you've probably heard of the term: Drake Curse. When Drizzy is not playing casino slots, he loves to wager on sports. For many people this curse is real. Of course, we're talking about an internet meme that fans spin around, making those superstitious folks stand on their toes when Drake is about to make a wager. Drake Curse revolves around the belief that any team that Drake places a bet on goes on to lose that match. While in many cases this came out to be true, in general, Drake is hitting on his bets more than  he doesn't. It's just that a few of his major bets were misses, so the term stuck around. Some people also went on expanding the curse, stating that when you see Drake wearing a certain jersey that team is going to lose their next match or going to miss out on trophies in coming seasons.

Drake simply adores having tattoos. Ink is a major part of his lifestyle, but some people believe that he's gone over the line a few times when tattooing his body. The one that is talked about to this day includes a tattoo of Rihanna. The two had a love fling that fell apart faster than it took off, but for Drake, Riri will be with him for eternity. The best part is that the tattoo is left to interpretation. Drizzy never confirmed that it was Rihanna, but still didn't stop fans from commenting still. Even if it's not Rihanna it does look like her. When paired with the rest of his body art, we can't be sure. After all, he has Aaliyah and Sade on his body too.

Champagne Papi is not the only one who's into music when it comes to his family. In fact, he inherited his music talent from his father. Dennis Graham, Drake's father, was a professional drummer. What's even more interesting is that he was rather famous as the main drummer for rock legend Jerry Lee Lewis. While Drake always talks highly of his mother, who he holds dear to heart more than his father, it can't be argued that his music genes came from father's side. While their genres differ, and Drake became far more famous and a celebrity that transcends genres, their musical bond can't be denied.

As we said at the start of this article, Drake is Canadian, but he's also much more than that. When it comes to his hometown, Drizzy is seen as a hero there. He was actually given the keys to the city in 2016. Toronto mayor John Tory gave Drake the city key which is the biggest honour a man can receive in Toronto. The matter of fact is that Drake fully deserved to be honoured by his hometown like this. After all, he is the one that put Toronto on the global map, promotes it on every step through his music and his OVO brand, and represents both Toronto and Canada in the best possible way wherever he goes.

If you remember, we mentioned it earlier, when Drake is not playing his favourite slots such as Sweet Bonanza or Dead or a Wild, he's betting on sports, or attending games as a fan. His presence on the sideline at the Toronto Raptors games brought him love from his hometown fans, but also hate from opposing fans, and in a few cases - players. But, the most interesting part of Drake's sports feuds is his ride vs. Golden State Warriors. Back in 2019 during the NBA Finals, Drake was an additional asset for Toronto Raptors. During the entire stretch of the finals he managed to get under the skin of professionals such as Draymond Green and Steph Curry. That's the main reason why some people still credit Drake as Raptors' sixth man for that one final series.

Life is never dull when Champagne Papi is involved. When you hear that his hobby is collecting Hermes Birkin Bags you will understand why he's so interesting to people. Even one of these bags is worth more than a few tens of thousands of dollars. Drizzy has more than a few. Drake is not holding them as some form of fetish. Instead, Drake claims that he's been collecting these bags for years with a sole goal. He's going to give them all to the love of his life. So, one day, when rake decides that it's time to get married, his wife will receive a dozen Birkin Bags.

When it comes to Drake, it's good to have him associated with your brand. So, it's no wonder that online casinos and sports betting brand, Stake decided to partner with Drake. Drake is a celebrity on his own, from acting and music, but he also has an entertainment side to him as a streamer. It is not a rare occurrence for Drake to stream his gambling exploits live, for fans to see it. The moment he became famous for that too among the gambling community, Stake decided to take him under their wing. Because of his deal with Stake, Drake has received one of the most lucrative sponsorship deals in the world of online casinos and sports betting. His deal is worth $100 million a year. That's right, Drizzy earns more than some professional athletes in their entire careers, just by being the face of one major sports betting and casino company. That's how big of a draw he is.

Yup, that was a thing. While there's no official confirmation of this fling from Aubrey or Serena, the two were a pair even for just a little bit. They were spotted together on more than a few occasions. As a sports fan, Drake was seen in stands for a couple of big Serena matches, and for a fan like him to do this, well, it is a sign of loyalty. While the idea of this power couple appeared as a great one for fans, it was just never meant to be. After the latest Super Bowl performance by Drake's arch-nemesis Kendrick Lamar, where Serena Williams appeared too dancing to the tune of Kendrick's Not Like Us where he's dissing Drake among other people, there's no love left between these two we're sure.

You remember Drake's hit song The Motto. YOLO is a phrase used in this song and its video, and thanks to Drake it went viral. But, we're not saying that it spread for a while. YOLO was a wildfire thanks to Drake.  Memes were everywhere. T-Shirts were selling like coffee. It was like nothing seen before. It was in the early days of social media platforms but it still managed to become a global phenomenon. It is no wonder that  some 15 years later this song is still one of the most listened to songs by Drake. It was one of those songs that launched him to the top of all music charts and he remained there to this day. The fun part is not that Drake invented this term as he didn't, but he made it bigger than it ever was. That's the type of influence Drizzy can cast.

Just like most of other global superstars, Drake is present on the platforms such as X, Instagram, and Kick. But, he's not a real fan like some other celebrities. Champagne Papi stated that he finds himself often being pressured by the constant eye of the public on him. Because of this he's often MIA on social media  networks. Yet, when he comes back, it always puts his fans into a frenzy. Drake knows how to manipulate social media, but he doesn't want to do it often, as he is concerned that too much exposure can have adverse effects on his mental health. In many cases, Drake's example is a good one to follow, as he knows a thing or two about success and preservation.

If today was a day you wanted to learn a few new things about Drake you did a good thing by reading this text. While some of these facts about Drake are well known, he keeps on adding to his persona, and is definitely a celebrity worth following.
