Drake puts on an Aussie accent and helps a fan quit their job at McDonald’s by gifting them $30,000 during Sydney concert

Canadian rapper Drake certainly hasn’t been afraid to splash the cash during his current Anita Max Win Australia tour.

After surprising fans in Sydney and Melbourne with cash, the God’s Plan hitmaker, 38, opened the wallet again for a Sydney fan on Monday night.

TikTok account Finessers took to the platform on Tuesday to share a short clip of Drake on stage at Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena.

The clip showed Drake, clad in a blue tracksuit, pointing out a sign he noticed in the crowd.

‘I like the style of my man right here,’ Drake said pointing to a sign that read: ‘Help us quit Maccas,’ referring to the iconic fast food outlet McDonald’s.

‘In Australia, I’ve been noticing they call McDonald’s “Maccas”, right?’ he asked.

The superstar then adopted his best Australian accent as he continued to address the hopeful fan.

‘He’s got the sign, mate, saying, “Help us quit Maccas” mate,’ he said in an Antipodean drawl that drew a rapturous reaction from the crowd.

‘I’m keen on that, mate. I’m keen to help you quit Maccas, mate,’ Drake continued.

However, rather than offering words of encouragement, the rapper put his money where his mouth is.

‘I’m going to give you 30 bands tonight so you can [quit Maccas],’ he said before adding a cheeky, ‘Easy as, mate.’

The post was met with a flurry of comments from fans, with many pointing out Drake’s attempt at an Aussie accent.

‘Easy as,’ one wrote with two crying laughing emojis. ‘He def been in Aus too long.’

Another chimed in with: ‘That wasn’t even a bad impression tbh.’

Drake’s magnanimous gesture comes after he made a Melbourne fan’s dream come true last week.

The God’s Plan hitmaker was on stage at Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena on Wednesday night when he singled out concertgoer Sally Soumaya for some special attention.

Sally shared a video to TikTok on Thursday that showed Drake revealing the gender of mum-to-be Sally’s impending newborn.

The video began with a photo that showed Sally and a friend standing in front of the venue, holding a sign that read: ‘Do my gender reveal.’

The call out struck a chord with Drake, who happily obliged the fan request.

‘This girl has a sign right here that says: “Do my gender reveal”,’ Drake said to the audience between song.

As Sally passed a piece of paper, detailing the baby’s gender to the front of the stage, Drake could not contain his excitement at being a part of the auspicious announcement.

‘This is life-changing. Oh, what do we think it is?,’ he asked before thanking Sally for letting him make the big announcement.

‘It says right here that it indicates that the fetus is a mini Drake,’ he said revealing that the mum-to be was going to have a baby boy.

If that wasn’t enough, the magnanimous musician also revealed that he would be giving the new mum quite a financial head-start.

‘Sally’s having a boy and Sally’s getting $50,000 from me,’ Drake added to rapturous applause from the crowd.

Captioning the video, Sally revealed that the experience would live long in her memory.

‘I will never recover from this! Drake does my baby’s gender reveal,’ she wrote.

The post was met with a flurry of comments from followers with many suggesting that the mum-to-be won’t have any trouble choosing a name.

‘I feel like his middle name gotta be Drake,’ one follower commented.

Another chimed in with: ‘Generational fumble if you don’t name him Aubrey,’ referencing the rapper’s given name Aubrey Drake Graham.

A third agreed, jumping in with: ‘Can’t wait to meet baby Drake! Most insane experience.’

Drake continued his gift-giving spree at his Sydney show on Sunday night, shouting a couple of concertgoers who got engaged during the gig a honeymoon and $25,000.

The 38-year-old Canadian rapper asked for the moment to be put on the concert screens so the entire stadium could see the young man propose to his girlfriend.

‘Listen, from me to you, from me to you, we’re sending you on a honeymoon wherever you want to go in the world, and I’m gonna give 25k… Congratulations, congratulations,’ he gushed.
