It is getting lonelier and lonelier at the top for Drake. The 6 God recently cautioned his fans about fake friends and folks switching up.
As reported by Rap-Up Magazine Champagne Papi is letting the world know that he too knows the pain of betrayal. On Saturday, Oct. 5 he appeared at a Toronto performance hall for Canadian personality, Tyrone Edwards’ Nostalgia Party event. “My real friends, are definitely in the building,” Drake told attendees in the crowd before warning them about snakes in the grass. “But I’m going to tell you, you’re going to come to a point in life where people you thought were your friends or people you thought were close to you, they might switch up.”
