The Drake new song 'Toosie Slide' offers a glimpse into the hip-hop legend's lavish $100 million mansion in his hometown, Toronto. The 'Hotline Bling' artist also appeared to promote social distancing as Drake is spotted with a mask-like attire which is covering his face while he dances past trophy cases and swimming pools. However, Drake also honours Kobe Bryant over the duration of the new video. At the 50-second mark in the Drake Toosie Slide video, the camera follows the rapper as he walks past two Lakers jerseys - a No. 8 and a No. 24, as Drake honours Kobe Bryant. Kobe and Gianna Bryant, along with seven others passed away in a tragic helicopter accident over Calabasas in January.
