Is Drake Still hung up on Rihanna?

The video of Drake professing his wish to LeBron James is a very old video and the rapper is talking about a time when he was still in a relationship with the Popstar. Rihanna talked about her relationship with Drake in an interview in 2018, “don’t have a friendship now, but we’re not enemies, either. It is what it is.”

With Drake’s new album, it seems he is still hung up on his relationship with the 35-year-old singer. It has been over 7 years since the couple separated, and Rihanna has moved on from her relationship with Drake. She is currently in a relationship with A$AP Rocky and has two beautiful children with the rapper.
