The Canadian artist features as the cover star in next month’s edition of US interior design publication, Architectural Digest.

Mega recording artist Drake (@champagnepapi) returned to his hometown of Toronto to once again plant roots there, building a 50,000-square-foot ultra-luxe pleasure dome. The stately manor, as envisioned by Canadian designer @ferrisrafauli, is a marvel of old-world craftsmanship, constructed of limestone, bronze, exotic woods, and other noble materials. “Because I was building it in my hometown, I wanted the structure to stand firm for 100 years. I wanted it to have a monumental scale and feel,” Drake says of his passion project. “It will be one of the things I leave behind, so it had to be timeless and strong,” he adds.

We’re also given access to Drake’s kitchen, home to a giant breakfast bar. Other shots show his bedroom, extravagant hallways and what appears to be a room for entertainment. The latter features a shelf holding various comic book figurines, including The Hulk.

The property, which measures 50,000 square feet, was described by Architectural Digest as “a marvel of old-world craftsmanship, constructed of limestone, bronze, exotic woods, and other noble materials.”

Drake told the magazine: “Because I was building it in my hometown, I wanted the structure to stand firm for 100 years. I wanted it to have a monumental scale and feel.

“It will be one of the things I leave behind, so it had to be timeless and strong.”

Drake is expected to release a new album at some point this year. It will follow on from 2018’s ‘Scorpion’.

Earlier this week, the rapper shared a new collaboration with Playboi Carti during a surprise appearance on an Instagram live session. Going by the working title ‘Pain 1993′, the track will reportedly feature on Carti’s upcoming record ‘Whole Lotta Red’.
