Drake, whose real name is Aubrey Graham, caused a stir in 2015 when he embarked on building his luxury home in Toronto and purchased the land for $6.7 million.
He reportedly spent $100 million building the sprawling property, located on one of Canada’s most prestigious streets.
Despite the privacy of his residence, the artist has occasionally gifted his fans glimpses of the luxurious property on social media, showing off features like his private basketball court.
The flooding comes two months after Drake’s $100 million estate, nicknamed the Embassy, was hit by several attempted burglaries.
On May 11, Drake’s security team reportedly arrested another alleged intruder at the rapper’s home for the third time in a week, not including the drive-by shooting of another guard.
