Drake once again showed love to a fan attending his concert by gifting him $50,000 to make him feel better after the rapper got to know the concert-goer was going through a breakup. According to the Independent, the Canadian rapper put a smile on the heartbroken fanā€™s face during one of his ā€œItā€™s All a Blurā€ Tour concerts in Miami.

The fan is said to have caught Drakeā€™s attention with a sign he was holding. The fan disclosed on the sign that he and his ex-girlfriend were initially supposed to attend the concert together, but they unfortunately broke up.

ā€œI like that sign,ā€ the Certified Lover Boy rapper was heard saying during his interaction with the fan.  ā€œThatā€™s a good sign to pick tonight. Usually Iā€™ll do something nice for a lady. Iā€™ll do something nice, Iā€™ll give away a bag or some s**t like that.ā€

ā€œBut my bro right here, he said: ā€˜I spent all my savings buying tickets for me and my ex, but Honestly, Nevermind, itā€™s really Her Loss,ā€™ā€ he said in reference to the sign. Drake ironically has an album named Honestly, Nevermind.

Drake also said he felt sad for the fan. ā€œSo, she ainā€™t come with you tonight? She ainā€™t come with you tonight ā€“ to the Drake show? What the f**k is wrong with her?ā€ he asked, before hyping up the fan. ā€œYou in here just icy with the gold chain and the sunglasses on?ā€

The 36-year-old rapper then disclosed he was going to gift the fan $50,000 in an effort to cheer him up. ā€œYou know what? Sheā€™s gonna feel real f***ed up ā€™cause Iā€™ma give you 50 bands, so you gonā€™ flex on her tonight,ā€ he said. ā€œThatā€™s how we doing it tonight, big dog! Itā€™s your night tonight!ā€

This isnā€™t the first time Drake has shown love to his fans at his concerts. During one of his concerts in Los Angeles in August, the Nothing Was The Same rapper gifted a fan an expensive HermĆ©s Birkin bag, Face2Face Africa reported.

In September, he similarly gifted $50,000 to a fan who spent money for furniture on his concert tickets.
