The City of Toronto loves Drake just as much as he loves his hometown and we hear it loud and clear with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra's remix of two of his popular songs for the Raptors.
As reported by Vibe magazine, the Toronto Symphony Orchestra decided to show some love to its home team as playoffs are in full swing.
The TSO put together a brass-based mashup of "All Me" and "Trophies."
We must say, that was a pretty clean follow-up to the lint roller giveaway last week.
Drizzy sent the internet into a head-scratching frenzy when a video of him cleaning himself while seated front row at Game 2 of the first-round NBA playoff series between the Toronto Raptors and the Brooklyn Nets went viral.
In a swift and quite clever response, the Raptors handed out 1200 limited edition Drake/OVO (October's Very Own, Drake's record label/brand) lint rollers to diehard fans sitting in the "416 Zone."
The Toronto Star reports that Bounce, a Proctor & Gamble company "has come on board as the official lint roller supplier of the Raptors."
But Toronto's love affair with Drake doesn't end there.
Back in March, Music Times reported that Drake will be receiving a grant issued by the Celebrate Ontario program administered by the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport for his annual OVO Fest.
The grant is reportedly worth $300,000.
It has also been reported that this level of funding puts Drake's summer concert financially neck-and-neck with the Toronto International Film Festival, the Stratford Festival and Rogers Cup tennis tournament.
