Drake’s Sweet Note to His Mom is the Cutest Thing Ever

Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
Drake is a mama’s boy and don’t you forget it!
The rapper posted a throwback Instagram photo of a sweet note he wrote to his mom about paying her back for all his eBay shopping sprees.
“I have cancelled the WireImage subscription due to my eBay charges coming to more than I had planned for,” the Toronto native wrote back in 2006, when he was only 19 years old. “Please know that you will be reimbursed fully through several methods and or means of payments. Thanks for temporarily funding my music and wardrobe.” Okay, how adorable is that?
Calling her his “tiny hero,” Drake regularly shares sweet photos of his mom, Sandi Sher. She must be kvelling, and as he wrote, he most likely settled his eBay debt.
Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.
But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
