His break in music came when the New Orleans rapper Lil Wayne invited Drake on a tour in 2008. Full disclosure: I am a Drake fan, work out to his music, and like his sartorial swagger.

Traveling along the Gardiner Expressway — the elevated highway under which Drake filmed portions of the “What’s Next” music video, which was released in March — is a building emblazoned with his clothing brand’s golden owl logo. It’s the OVO Athletic Centre, a basketball training site that is home to the Toronto Raptors, which Drake represents as the team’s global ambassador.
