Famous Houstonophile Drake Reps Cougars During Concert
By Tully Corcoran
Drake is a famous sports fan, sure. But as far as the sports world is concerned, he is probably better understood as a living, breathing, emo-rapping barometer of Who’s Hot Right Now.
So today we check in on Drake’s Instagram, and we see that the sports team of our present moment is Houston, which beat No. 3 Oklahoma on Saturday in Houston.
Though Drake is Canadian, he has long harbored a fascination for Houston as a city, and for the distinctly Houston sound heard in the city’s rap music, which has informed his own work.
Houston my city, and yesterday was a good day in the Bayou City indeed. But if you know anything about Houston, you know trunks keep poppin’, tops keep droppin’ regardless.
