The Toronto rapper praised his mother Sandra Graham in a heartfelt message, crediting her with guiding not only him but a tight-knit group of young men since the early days of his career.
“It’s solely because of your relentless dedication that we are all here in this current day life setting,” Drake wrote. “You kept 30 or so young men on the right path since 2007 and encouraged us to take care of each other which prompted us to form a new family that allowed us to become providers and bring joy and peace of mind back to the homes we all started at.”

His first message was for his longtime co-parent Aleska Jordan, whom he thanked for over two decades of unwavering support and motherhood.
“I’ve been celebrating you for 22 Mother’s Day I don’t think I’ve ever fell short of giving you the love appreciation you deserve,” he wrote.

“You are the mother that taught me how to be a better parent,” he wrote. “On the days I fall short, you pick up the slack for me keep the ship floating to be perfectly honest.. that ship still sails.”

Snoop Dogg kept it short and classic, posting, “Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers.”
Ludacris offered a more philosophical take, writing, “A Mother has to think TWICE every second of every DAY: once for herself and once for her Children. Being a Mother is the HIGHEST, HOLIEST service to MANKIND! And Your Daily service NEVER goes unnoticed.”
