Drake Pays Tribute To 11 Year Old Fan Who Passed Away

Everything you need to live well

Canadian rap star Drake has paid tribute to an 11 year old fan who recently passed away.

The In My Feelings star was introduced to the late youngster through Make A Wish Foundation which helps young people suffering from serious illnesses.

Drake had paid a surprise visit to the 11-year-old heart transplant patient in August.

He had not attended the MTV VMAs at New York’s Radio City Music Hall so he could go to the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital in Chicago, where he met super-fan Sofia Sanchez.

The young girl had participated in the In My Feelings Challenge that buzzed across the Internet recently – in which people completed a choreographed dance to Drake’s track of the same name – which the rapper had seen and decided to drop by the hospital to say hi.

He wrote a touching tribute via his Instagram page:
