It's been less than 24 hours since Drake released his surprise mixtape Dark Lane Demo Tapes and fans still can stop talking about the project. The album is a mix of new and familiar songs with features that include looks from Young Thug, Playboi Carti, Future, and Chris Brown. Today, Lil Wayne shared the second episode of his newly launched Young Money podcast on Beats 1, and Drake decided to call in to chat with his mentor and longtime friend. They spoke about Wayne's love of creating music, and how difficult it can be to dig through his unreleased tracks.

"I make songs for moments," Wayne told Drake. "Like right after a movie moment. Like, right in the middle of the movie. Right before the movie, the conversation..." Drake interrupted to confirm that Lil Wayne's vault is packed. "You got so many joints. You got so many songs that's like...I remember one of the biggest things in life was reminding you of the songs. Trying to figure out what month's hard drive the song that I was looking for was on 'cause you have so many joints, it's insane."
Then, Weezy and Drizzy touched on the OVO Sound leader recently sharing photos of his son. By the sound of things, Lil Wayne hasn't yet met little Adonis Graham. Drake shared that "it was great" for him to post the pictures of his son on social media. "It wasn't anything I talked about or anything I planned," he said. "I just woke up one morning and said, 'You know what, this is just something that I wanna do.'" He added that he just wanted to be able to wake up and go places with his little boy without having to hide or shelter him from the world. Listen to Lil Wayne and Drake chop it up below.
Did Drake Photoshop This Photo With His Son?
Sophie Brussaux edited a family portrait so she and Drake could have blonde hair like their son, but his own Photoshop skills were allegedly more stealth.
We’ve had a few days to cool down from the initial high of finally seeing what Drake‘s son looks like but now, we’re worked up for a whole other reason.
As you surely know by now, Drake shared a whole bunch of family pictures on Instagram this week, allowing his son Adonis to make his grand social media debut in style. The rapper’s baby mama Sophie Brussaux, a painter in France, joked about her son’s bright blonde hair by editing both her and Drake’s hair to match Adonis’. That Photoshop job was clear. However, according to the hosts of the Flagrant 2 Podcast, Drake may have done a few extra touch-ups himself.
Andrew Schulz and Akaash Singh were decked out in their COVID-19 protective gear for a new podcast episode this week and one of the main topics they discussed was the baby photos of Adonis that Drake finally felt compelled to share. While Sophie Brussaux’s edits were obvious, Drake allegedly made his arms and Sophie’s breasts larger in the original photo, which Schulz and Singh point out.
Although it has not been confirmed that Drake tried to make himself seem buffer than he actually is, and his girl bustier than she actually is, the side-by-side comparison may speak for itself.
Do you agree with Schulz and Singh or are they imagining the differences? Compare the blonde and brown hair photos in the galleries above and listen to the episode below, where their discussion begins at the 1:35:00 mark.
50 Cent Reacts To Drake’s Son’s Pictures
50 Cent is amazed at the similarities between Drake’s son Adonis and the singer’s mother.
The entire world is taking in this moment at the same time after Drake finally allowed us into his world, sharing the first-ever photos of his son Adonis. His 2-year-old is adorable with his bright blonde curly hair and blue eyes, which has got fans wondering where he got his looks from. Drake and Sophie Brussaux, the kid’s mother, are both dark-haired. Apparently, Drake’s mother’s genes were strong with this one because, in comparison photos shared by 50 Cent, you can clearly see the resemblance between the two.
Reacting to the new photos of Adonis Graham, 50 Cent remarked that the little boy looks a lot like his grandmother, Drake’s mom.
“Drake had his mom a grand baby for real, her genes are strong,” wrote the rapper. “I bet she is so happy he looks like her.”
Drake’s mother, Sandi Graham, has the same blonde hair as Adonis does, which draws a direct line from grandmother to grandson. 50 Cent isn’t the only person that thinks they look similar. Among the majority of reactions on social media, fans are making the same distinction too.
If you haven’t seen the new photos of Adonis yet, be sure to check them out above. Do you think he looks like his grandmother?
Drake Fans Gush Over First-Ever Photos Of His Son
Drake shared his first-ever pictures with his son Adonis and fans everywhere are going crazy.
Logging onto Instagram this morning, Drake fans were ecstatic to see that the world-renowned rapper had shared the first-ever photos of himself and his son Adonis on social media. Never before has the superstar posted pictures with his baby boy and this is the first look that fans have ever gotten of the 2-year-old.
With blonde curly hair and blue eyes, Adonis Graham bears a slight resemblance to his father, but it makes sense that Drake wasn't initially sure that the child was his. However, when compared to pictures of Drake's mother, it's pretty clear that Adonis ended up taking more from his grandmother than his father.
Everybody is happy to see that Drake finally feels comfortable enough to share his son with the world, penning a sweet message to him in the post.
Despite all the positive comments about the little one, some people are making comments about Adonis' skin, which is on the lighter side. Some critics have even suggested that the 2-year-old is "albino." Drake previously said that he was hiding the world from his son, and this is surely a part of that. He had to have known that people would react in a disrespectful manner.
Nevertheless, enjoy the adorable photos of Drake and his son above and check out some of the most heart-warming reactions below.
