Drake has proven time and time again that he is all about his music and fans. And of course, this latest interaction between the mega star and 14-yaer-old Zelek Murray proves no different as Drake sent him a special, personalized message for his 14th birthday.
According to The Shade Room the teen has a rare form of brain cancer and after learning about his incredible fight from fellow entertainer, Mustafa the Poet, the Canadian superstar wanted to send him some encouraging words to help him get through his hospital stay.
βI can’t imagine how tough you have to be, and Mustafa let me know how youβre a fan of mine,β the rapper said in the interview. “Well, I’m a fan of you. I’m a fan of people with heart, and I can tell that you have a lot of heart. I just wanna tell you, stay strong, I love you, and I appreciate you.β
Of course, the teen’s reaction was priceless when his mother played the video, penning a thank you to the star on Instagram.
βTHANK U @champagnepapi THANK YOU @mustafathepoet ….. You donβt even know how much this [meant] for US but most importantly βHIM,ββ Zelek’s mother said in her caption. βHis strength is like no other and yes he has his good days and bad days, BUT THIS is exactly what he needed to lift up his Spirit.. to never give up…Because you took time out of your day to put a smile on a 14yr old boys face….WE ARE FOREVER THANKFUL.β
