Adele Says Her 'Mate' Drake Got A Sneak Peek Of Her New Music & He Had Some Wise Words
"Let me just pick that name off the floor!"
The lovefest between Adele and Drake is continuing, and the pop legend says Drizzy even dropped some wise words for her ahead of a new single release.
Chatting to English radio station Capital FM on the day Adele's new single dropped, the English singer-songwriter talked about Drake listening to the new music a while back and answering the question of whether the rest of the world wanted to hear it.
"I played it to Drake, maybe last year when he was in town," Adele told the hosts, answering the question of who had already heard her new music. "I'm like, 'Do you think this is what people want, or not want?"
"And he said, 'absolutely,'" she said, moments before she was absolutely roasted for her casual Drake namedrop.
"Sorry, let me just pick that name off the floor!" she laughed.
Adele also called Drake her "mate" and said the Canadian rapper was "incredible and amazing," and we agree — if for no other reason that he encouraged Adele to bless us with another hit.
This isn't the first time the pair have been chummy, either. Drake posted about Adele's new song on Instagram ("One of my best friends in the world just dropped a single," he wrote), and back in 2019, the duo reportedly went on a (platonic) date in L.A.
That's all well and good, but when's the collab?!

Alphonso Davies' Latest Goal For Canada Was So Amazing That Even Drake Was Impressed (VIDEO)
The Canadian soccer star got a text from Drake after the team's 4-1 win!
It was a big night for Alphonso Davies as he helped the Canada men's national soccer team to an important 4-1 win and even got a text from Drake after the game!
During a World Cup qualifier match against Panama in Toronto on October 13, Davies scored Canada's second goal of the night which put the team ahead 2-1. He used an incredible bit of skill to save the ball from going out of bounds before taking it all the way and putting it in the back of the net.
ON. REPEAT. FOREVER. #CANMNT #ForCanada https://t.co/RsVItK76eG— Canada Soccer (@Canada Soccer) 1634173466.0
Right after the win, head coach John Herdman revealed that Davies had just gotten a text from the famous Canadian rapper and that "Drake wants to meet the boys."
Back in 2020, Davies became the first Canadian man to win the UEFA Champions League when his team, Bayern Munich, beat Paris Saint-Germain. He got some love from Justin Trudeau and found out that Drake was following him on social media, which led to what could be the best reaction video ever.
After screaming and running around, he said, "Drake, you followed me? Oh my god!"
Davies, who was born at a refugee camp in Ghana and then settled in Edmonton with his family, won the Lou Marsh Award at the end of 2020 and was named Canada's top athlete of the year along with Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, a Canadian NFL player and doctor.

Drake Outed Kawhi’s True Feelings About Toronto During Last Night’s Raptors Game
Drake also revealed that "we definitely miss him for sure."
Drake seemingly exposed Kawhi Leonard's true feelings about Toronto during the Raptors game against Houston last night, and they're surprisingly wholesome.
Drizzy, who briefly took over broadcasting duties during Monday night's game, revealed that the Board Man misses his Canadian fans and the city itself.

"One thing about Kawhi that I can tell the people, whenever I see him, he expresses the utmost gratitude and just always says how much he misses the fans in the city," Drake revealed. "That's my guy honestly, he is really grateful for his time here. We definitely miss him for sure."
Leonard famously left fans wanting more after he ditched the 6ix for the Clippers in the aftermath of the team's 2019 NBA championship.
On the bright side, the Raptors did beat the Rockets 107-92, which will definitely help keep spirits up as they head into their first season without veteran Kyle Lowry.

Drake's Son Adonis Just Celebrated His Birthday With His Dad & Bugs Bunny (PHOTOS)
Adonis just turned 4! 🥳
Drake's wishing his son, Adonis, the happiest of birthdays with the ultimate party.
On Sunday, October 10, Adonis turned 4 and Drizzy shared a couple of snaps and videos of the event.
Posed in front of a decked-out racing-themed photo wall, Adonis and Drake synchronized their poses for the 'gram. "MORE LIFE KID," Drizzy wrote in the post, which now has over 2.5 million likes.
As if we could handle any more cuteness from their father-and-son relationship, Drake shared a second pic in black and white, and it looked like Adonis was going for his best Superman impression.
Drake wasn't the only celebrity invited to the birthday party, either.
His IG story shows Adonis holding onto Bugs Bunny's hand as he guides him throughout the food court. Bugs was decked out in a Lebron James jersey from the latest Space Jam, which came out earlier this summer. In the clip, Adonis handed Bugs some popcorn so that they could share the classic movie theatre snack together.
Drake welcomed his only son with Sophie Brussaux in 2017. When Drake accepted his Artist of the Decade award at the Billboard Music Awards, Adonis shared the stage with his dad and was filled with emotion toward the end of his speech.
