After his parents divorced, Drake was raised by his mother, Sandi Graham. While he was still an up-and-coming artist, Drake was motivated to become successful in order to take care of Sandi. “Dedicated to my mom and I swear my word is bond/ Everything will be okay and it won’t even take that long,” he rapped before his big break in “The Calm.”
As a single mother, Sandi supported Drake while he navigated his career as a teen actor and eventually, a rapper. Ahead of the release of his album “Certified Lover Boy” in 2021, she penned a sweet letter to her son. “… With each new album my heart skips a beat, being your mother has been my life’s greatest treat,” Sandi’s letter read (via People). “It’s been a long hard road together, now there’s one more day to go. I wanna celebrate you, son, more than you’ll ever know.”
During his “It’s All A Blur” tour, Drake brought his mother on stage at Madison Square Garden and dedicated one of his early songs to her. The song, “Look What You’ve Done,” speaks about his parental unit and the promises he made to Sandi. As seen in fan videos, she became overcome with emotion during the full-circle moment as her son serenaded her.
