Drake also made mention of HH Sheikh Mansoor bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, calling him family
It’s no secret that HH Sheikh Mansoor bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Chairman of Dubai’s Supreme Committee of Crisis and Disaster Management, and the Canadian rapper have had a friendship since 2015, during his first visit to the city until date.
It’s no wonder the lyrics, “And that’s facts, Hamdan Mohammed like my third cousin (Facts)/Mansoor Mohammed like my real brother (Facts)/Dubai embrace me like a Emirati (Facts).”
We love to see it.
