Drake Replies Dad’s Claims That He Lied In His Lyrics To Sell Records

Drake Replies His Dad Claims That He Lied About Their Relationship To Sell Records

In a viral interview clip of Drake’s dad Dennis Graham and Nick Cannon, he was asked to speak on his involvement in Drake’s life when he was a child.

Drake’s lyrics has repeatedly referenced his father’s frequent absence throughout his childhood.

Although the father and son have ironed things out, their relationship is not on the edge again.

Dennis Graham told Nick Cannon that Drake had fabricated the stories about him being an absentee father in order to sell records.

“I had a conversation with Drake about that. I have always been with Drake,” he said. “I talk to him if not every day, then every other day.”

“We really got into a deep conversation about that. I said, ‘Drake, why are you saying all of this different stuff about me? This is not cool.’ He [said], ‘Dad, it sells records.’ Okay, well cool.”

While the clip from the interview has been trending and fans have been reacting to it,  Drake had taken time to address the issue.

Drake shared a message on his Instagram story showing his disappointment in Dennis.

“Woke up today so hurt man,” he wrote. “My father will say anything to anyone that’s willing to listen to him. It’s sad when family gets like this but what can we really do that’s the people we are stuck with… every bar I ever spit was the truth and the truth is hard for some people to accept.”
