- Drake is one of the most famous rappers of all time and is worth $250 million

- LeBron James and Bronny James attended his concert, where Drake emotionally spoke about the Lakers’ star
LeBron James has always been in tune with what is going on in the world and especially when it comes to hip-hop. As it turns out, the King was one of Drake’s early supporters before he truly blew up, which the musician acknowledged in a recent concert.
“I don’t know if you saw who walked me to stage tonight,” Drake said. “But the gentleman that walked me to stage tonight is my brother. He goes by the name of LeBron James.
“And in 2009, when nobody believed in anything I had going on, that same guy showed up to a release party for a mixtape that was called So Far Gone. I don’t know if you ever heard about this.
“He came all the way to Toronto, Canada to support me when I was trying to figure out how I can live my dreams. And so tonight, however, many years later, it’s an honor to be inside his building while we’re both still on this Earth.
“I gotta do this building justice tonight. So I came to LA and I’m about to give you every f**king thing I got. I promise you right now.”

Drake was performing at the Crypto.com Arena, where the Los Angeles Lakers play. That is what he means when he says he is in LeBron James’ building.
So Far Gone can be credited as the beginning of Drake’s success. He wasn’t too big before it dropped in 2009, but the mixtape’s success led him down the road to being one of the biggest names ever. It’s no wonder he loves LeBron James so much.
Bronny James Was With LeBron James At The Drake Concert
LeBron James is no stranger to shoutouts like these. Being the GOAT of his generation means he gets a lot of love and respect around the world.
But this particular night must have meant a lot to LeBron James as Bronny James, his son, accompanied him while he walked Drake to the stage.
Bronny James has been dealing with the aftermath of a cardiac arrest, which was a scary time for LeBron James and his family. But things seem to be better now, considering that he was feeling well enough to attend this epic concert.
