Besides “Fun Guy” Kawhi Leonard, another NBA star also appearing on Drake’s new album is Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Rapper Drake is making the US-UK rap community crazy with his album called “Certified Lover Boy”. Right on the first day of release, the Canadian rapper’s new music album reached the top of popularity, bombarding many charts.
Drake is famous for incorporating NBA players into his rap songs and this time, he went a step further by including a superstar in the MV.
Rapper Drake brought Kawhi Leonard, a very private and quiet person, into his music product
Originally an extremely quiet person, not using social networks and rarely revealing his emotions or daily life images, Kawhi Leonard’s appearance in Drake’s MV made fans feel excited.
The scene with Kawhi takes place in a desert with him and three rappers, Drake, Future and Young Thug. The four of them wore striking white outfits, creating an image like the old Backstreet Boys band.
With Leonard, he did not smile or speak exactly like his real life personality. He just stood behind and… followed the choreography.
What’s most interesting is a moment where the camera pans straight to Kawhi’s face with Drake, Future, and Young Thug all pointing at him. The LA Clippers star looked shocked, Kawhi Leonard’s “not fake” performance.

The NBA Twitter community went crazy when they saw Kawhi Leonard appear in Drake’s MV. Even his colleagues, notably Bradley Beal, were surprised and retweeted with the content: “Laughing until tears”.
Drake and Kawhi Leonard have been close since 2019, when the All-Star/All-NBA player went to play for the Toronto Raptors.
This relationship became more special when Leonard contributed greatly to the first championship trophy in team history.
