Drake shares video of torrential rain flooding his Toronto mansion, jokes it 'better be espresso martini'

TORONTO, CANADA: Canadian rapper Drake is taking the beating from Tuesday’s July 16, torrential rain in the city along with his fellow Toronto residents. 

The ‘God’s Plan’ crooner shared a video of his flooded home on Instagram Story. The video showed a luxurious closet-type room with Drake's feet submerged up to his ankle in murky brown water.

While recording the clip, Drake held a broom in one of his hands, may be in an attempt to drain out the water.

The Grammy Award winner also captioned the video jokingly, ‘This better be Espresso Martini,’ reports ET.

As per CNN, Toronto registered a horrific rainstorm on Tuesday, July 16, leaving the city streets submerged in water, and bringing transportation to a standstill. It is also reported that tens of thousands of residents were left with no power, and The Pearson International Airport recorded 97 millimeters (or 3.82 inches) of rain.

Back in 2020, Drake interviewed with Architectural Digest, where he took them for an inside tour of his, nicknamed "The Embassy," Toronto mansion, featuring opulent "Modern Art Deco" design and referred to it as "overwhelmingly high luxury." 

“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. It will be one of the things I leave behind, so it had to be timeless and strong,” the 37-year-old told the outlet.
