Drake’s massive Toronto home flooded during a severe rainstorm on Tuesday.
Drake was affected by the severe rainstorms in Toronto as he shared videos of his flooded home on social media.
In an Instagram Story shared Tuesday, the “Hotline Bling” rapper filmed an unidentified man pushing against glass double doors as water rushed from what seemed to be a closet and into a bathroom.
Panning around the room, he could be seen walking through ankle-deep water with a broom in attempts to push the water out of the room.
He posted a video on Instagram that showed water rushing into what appeared to be a dressing area. The water was ankle-high.
Drake joked about the matter, writing, “This better be Espresso Martini,” over the video. Drake’s high-end mansion is 50,000 square feet and boasts an NBA-sized basketball court. WireImage
The 50,000 square-foot mansion, which is nicknamed The Embassy, was conceptualized by Drake and Canadian architectural and interior designer Ferris Rafauli.
It boasts a great room with a 40-foot ceiling, exotic wood floors, a limestone entryway and an NBA regulation-size indoor basketball court.
“Because I was building it in my hometown, I wanted the structure to stand firm for 100 years. I wanted it to have a monumental scale and feel,” Drake told Architectural Digest in 2020.
