Earlier this month, former Spurs guard Cory Josephwho was drafted by San Antonio in 2011 and won a title with the team in 2014decided to take his talents to the Raptors. And while most people didn"t bat an eye when the Pickering, Ontario native signed a four-year, $30 million deal with Toronto, it seems Drake took notice.
On "Charged Up," the track that Drizzy dropped on his Beats 1 radio show OVO Sound today, Drake gave one of his most random sports-related shout outs ever when he name-dropped Joseph in the middle of the song.
"We gon" make sure you get your bread and you know the ropes," Drake raps, "I get a ring and I bring it home like I"m Cory Joe."
Yo, already?!The ink isn"t even dry on his contract yet! We weren"t the only ones who caught the "Cory Joe" reference, either:
Wow. *waits for every free agent to sign with Toronto next season*
