Sexyy Red thanks Drake for including her in “For All The Dogs”.
The music industry is excited about the launch of Drake’s latest album, “For All The Dogs”. The eagerly awaited LP boasts a celebrity-filled roster featuring J. Cole, Lil Yachty, Chief Keef, and even Drake’s 5-year-old son, Adonis. Among the highlighted performers is St. Louis native rapper, Sexyy Red, who participates in the song “Rich Baby Daddy” with SZA.
Sexyy Red took to social media to express her gratitude to Drake for his support and for the opportunity to be part of his album. She wrote, “Thank u Drake for supporting me all year and letting me b apart of your amazing album.” The two artists have been linked since the summer when they teased a pseudo-fling, with Drake referring to Sexyy Red as his “rightful wife.” While their romantic relationship appears to have been in jest, their professional relationship is certainly serious. Sexyy Red even joined Drake as an opening act on his “It’s All A Blur” tour with 21 Savage.
Drake recently presented Sexyy Red with a diamond Cartier watch as a token of appreciation, which she happily displayed on Instagram. She voiced her astonishment and thankfulness in a post, saying, “Drake, thank you! Ice me out then. Big boss stuff. I value that, big guy.”
However, it hasn’t all been smooth sailing for Sexyy Red. The 25-year-old rapper recently had her sex tape leaked on her Instagram Story, leading to a wave of online trolling. She has been accused of leaking the tape herself, an allegation she vehemently denies. Despite the controversy, many of her peers and fans have come to her defense.
Sexyy Red’s feature on “For All The Dogs” has been well-received by fans. The album itself has also garnered positive reviews. As we continue to enjoy this new release, we look forward to more updates on Sexyy Red and Drake.
In the meantime, Sexyy Red continues to make headlines not just for her music, but also for her generous spirit. She recently shared how she loves to spoil her mom, saying, “She’d Spend Her Last On Us.” It’s clear that despite the ups and downs, Sexyy Red remains focused on her music and the people who matter most to her.
