In a heartfelt revelation, global superstar Drake has opened up about his journey as a father for the first time, sharing how becoming a dad to his son, Adonis, has transformed his life. The Canadian rapper, known for his chart-topping hits and lavish lifestyle, spoke candidly in an interview about how fatherhood has shaped him in ways he never imagined, allowing him to grow and mature on a personal level.
Drake’s son, Adonis, was born in 2017, but it wasn’t until 2018 that the world learned about him, following Drake’s decision to keep his personal life private. Since then, fans have occasionally been treated to glimpses of Drake’s life with Adonis through social media, but now, for the first time, Drake is sharing just how deeply fatherhood has impacted him.
“Since the day Adonis was born, I’ve learned how to care and grow so much,” Drake confessed. “Becoming a father has completely changed the way I see life. It’s made me more patient, more responsible, and, above all, more loving.” The rapper explained that having a son has not only given him a new perspective on life but also taught him the importance of setting a good example and being present for the people who matter most.
Drake described the overwhelming feelings of love and responsibility he experienced when he first held Adonis in his arms. “I never really understood what it meant to care for someone unconditionally until I met my son. Everything I do now has him in mind. It’s no longer just about me—it’s about what’s best for him and our future together,” he said, reflecting on how his priorities have shifted since becoming a dad.
He also spoke about the personal growth he’s experienced since Adonis came into his life. “I’ve had to grow up fast,” Drake admitted. “Before, I was focused on success and what’s next in my career, but now, I think about how my choices affect my son and the kind of man I want him to look up to.” He added that fatherhood has forced him to reassess his values, urging him to become a better version of himself in both his personal and professional life.
Despite his hectic schedule as one of the world’s most famous artists, Drake makes it a point to spend as much time with Adonis as possible. Whether they’re enjoying quiet moments at home or traveling the world together, Drake treasures the time he gets to be a hands-on dad. “I try to be there for every milestone, every laugh, every tear,” Drake shared. “Those moments are what matter the most to me now.”
Drake also touched on the challenges of balancing his career with fatherhood, acknowledging that it hasn’t always been easy. “It’s a lot to juggle,” he said. “There are days when I’m exhausted, but being a father gives me a different kind of energy. Knowing that I’m doing this for him makes everything worth it.”
Though Drake’s love for his son is undeniable, he admitted that fatherhood has come with its fair share of challenges and learning curves. “No one teaches you how to be a dad. You have to figure it out as you go, and there are definitely moments where I question if I’m doing it right. But then I look at Adonis and see how happy he is, and I know I must be doing something right.”
As for his hopes for Adonis’ future, Drake expressed his desire to see his son grow up happy and fulfilled. “I want him to be able to pursue his passions, whatever they may be. My job is to support him, guide him, and help him become the best person he can be,” Drake said. “At the end of the day, I just want him to know he’s loved, and that’s what’s most important.”
This candid conversation shows a different side of Drake—one that fans may not be as familiar with. While he continues to dominate the music charts and the entertainment industry, it’s clear that being a father to Adonis is his most important and rewarding role yet. Through the ups and downs of fatherhood, Drake is learning, growing, and becoming a better man, all thanks to the love he has for his son.
