Fact-Checking Drake: Does Toronto Really Love Him?... →
npr: The rapper Drake has, if you go by one of his song’s lyrics, a short list of interests. The first is money. The second is the city of Toronto. In the world of hip-hop, it’s not outlandish to identify the acquisition of wealth as a motivator, nor is it particularly odd to claim mythical status in one’s hometown. At the ripe old age of 25, Drake estimates his worth to be about $25...

In a series of papers, scientists from the...
