Getting a Birkin bag as a gift is, of course, not an everyday thing. The Hermès It Bag is, in fact, one of the most luxurious accessories in the world, costing up to six figures. And yet rappers have stepped in lately: first Kanye West, who gifted her and all her friends with Birkin bags last February for Julia Fox’s birthday, and then Drake in a flashy and unexpected gesture during his forum concert. in Los Angeles. Rapper Hotline Bling took to the stage wearing a $30,000 pink Hermès Birkin watch and handed it to a fan in the front row.

A video of him has gone viral on the internet. In the clip, the 36-year-old singer takes to the stage holding what looks like Birkin 30 Epsom or Togo leather sneakers and announces to the crowd that “Drake is not cheap.” After giving the handbag to the woman in the front row, Drake asked security to follow the fan as she left the concert. On the Web, of course, there was no shortage of comments from users who appreciated the generosity of the rapper. “Oh my God, imagine not only getting a free Birkin, but also getting a free Birkin from Drake,” one fan commented under the video.
Drake’s love for Birkin bags is documented. In 2017, the rapper said during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that he was collecting Birkin bags to give to the woman he would end up with. Three years later, Drake showed part of his Architectural Digest collection housed in a two-story office “decorated with amethyst hardware, rock crystal, and diamond-quilted shearling-covered seats with polished nickel rivets.”
