Drake Reportedly Runs Back His 40th and Gives Bow Wow His Flowers

Drake is not done turning 40. After a Cipriani night that reportedly featured the Backstreet Boys, he ran it back over the weekend at Delilah in New York, with Travis Scott, Jack Harlow and Alix Earle reportedly in the building, according to TMZ.

The moment people kept clipping came on night two. Drake reportedly stopped the party to credit Bow Wow and the 106 & Park era for showing him how to be a star, telling the room there "wouldn't be no Drake without Bow Wow," according to Complex. Bow Wow then reportedly performed "Like You."
