What’s the origin of the nickname Chef Curry?







Will it be difficult to think that Steph received the famous moniker from a rapper? Drake, a Canadian rapper and musician, was really there. Curry and the singer have a close connection that frequently shines through at gatherings and performances. The Dubs hero and his family received a shout-out from Drake during his It's All A Blur music tour in 2023. Most significantly, he called Steph his brother.







Curry's moniker is well-known among social media users, who frequently address the celebrity as Chef in the comments. The moniker gained notoriety as a result of a song dropped by Drake and Steph's spouse, Ayesha Curry. In 2014, Drake and Ayesha's song Chef Curry With The Pot completely took over the internet. Additionally, Mrs. Curry uploaded the song's video to YouTube, where it had more than 5 million views until 2023.







Furthermore, in an interview with Wired, the superstar himself clarified the origin story of the nickname. He said, “Drake dropped the first line… which is obviously a call to me kind of cooking him up on the court.” However, he concluded by saying, “The real Chef Curry is Ayesha Curry.”
