Hip-hop superstar Drake found himself in “Mr. Clean mode” as his Toronto mansion was hit with a flood during a severe storm that swept through the city. The 50,000-square-foot crib turned into a watery mess, leaving Drake to grab a broom and attempt to handle the flooding like a true boss.
In a video shared on his Instagram Story, Drake captured the chaos as water surged through his lavish estate, with brown liquid filling the rooms. Standing alongside another man trying to keep the water at bay, Drake humorously compared the situation to an Espresso Martini – a true testament to his sense of humor.
As the water rose up to his ankles, Drake’s efforts with the broom seemed futile. Dubbed “The Embassy,” his luxurious abode may be compromised, but the rapper has the option to escape to his other $15 million mansion in Texas if needed.
With power outages affecting thousands of customers and rescue operations underway across Toronto, Drake’s mansion isn’t the only place feeling the impact of the storm. However, with a reported value of $100 million, his art-filled residence likely has flood insurance to cover any damages.
From a master-bedroom suite to an indoor basketball court and a bespoke concert grand piano, Drake’s mansion is a true work of art. Fans got a peek inside the lavish pad in his “Toosie Slide” music video, shot during the COVID-19 lockdown last year.
While dealing with the aftermath of the flood, Drake’s resilient sense of humor shines through. Check out the video below to see how the hip-hop mogul handles the unexpected water intrusion in his Toronto mansion.
