Moreover, this personality went on to become an iconic part of his onscreen appearances. And, in turn, paved the way for multiple artists wishing to feature Tyson in their videos. In fact, Tyson was recently seen in Canadian rapper, Drake’s latest music video.

Drake is currently considered one of the most influential figures in contemporary music. He recently released a studio album called ‘Her Loss’. It should be mentioned that this was a collaborative studio album with 21 Savage.

One of the most popular songs in the album was ‘Jumbotron Sh*t Poppin’. The song which has currently amassed over 1.2 million views, saw Drake flex a myriad of rare items, including $3.3 million worth of chains, previously owned by Pharell Williams.

Tyson, on the other hand, also made a blink-and-miss appearance in the song. Drake incorporated a snippet from the time he met the champ in the song. The lyrics at the time of Tyson’s appearance were rather intriguing as well. With the song going, “Posted at the crib in a snake pit. Every time I tell you how I feel, I don’t fake sh*t.”
