Drake welcomed Adonis with French artist Sophie Brussaux in 2017.
At first, the rapper denied having fathered a child with Brussaux. However, in 2018, he confirmed she was pregnant with his baby in “March 14” on his Scorpion album.
“The kid is mine,” he rapped on the track.
On “Emotionless,” another track on the album, Drake rapped, “I wasn’t hidin’ my kid from the world/ I was hidin’ the world from my kid.”
Both Drake and Brussaux waited until 2020 to share any photos of Adonis. The rapper explained his reasoning during Apple Music radio show Young Money Radio with Lil Wayne.
“I want to be able to go places with my son and share memories with my son,” Drake said, as Complex reported. “I don’t want to feel like just because of a life choice I made to be a ‘celebrity’ that I got to make everybody live under this blanket. … I just wanted to free myself of that.”
Since then, Drake has been sharing his son with the world, posting cute videos and photos of them on social media and bringing him along to basketball games and red carpet events.
