Drake Reveals Post-Prison Phone Call With Lil' Wayne

November 5, 2010
Drake Reveals Post-Prison Phone Call With Lil' WayneDrake has revealed that Lil' Wayne telephoned him shortly after the rapper was released from prison on Thursday (November 4).

Lil' Wayne was freed after serving eight months of a one-year sentence for gun possession.

Appearing at a gig in California last night, Drake said he was in “one of the greatest moods I’ve ever been in” because of the rapper’s release.

He went on to discuss a phone call he had shared with Lil' Wayne where the rapper said he wanted to know if the fans still loved him.

Drake then used a hand-held video camera to film the crowd's raucous reaction to the question.

The rapper was also joined by Nicki Minaj, who made a surprise appearance at the show.

Meanwhile, Lil' Wayne is expected to accompany Drake at a gig in Las Vegas on Saturday (November 6).
