New piece of ink: Grammy-winning rapper Drake unveiled his latest face tattoo, a tribute to his mother Sandi Graham, with his more than 119 million Instagram followers on Thursday

The father-of-one and his mom have a very close relationship, and she has been extremely supportive of his music career over the years.

Last year, ahead of the release of his sixth studio album Certified Lover Boy, Graham sent him sweet notes and flowers, which he posted pictures of on his Instagram.

‘Being your mother has been my life’s greatest treat. It’s been a long hard road together,’ she wrote in one message. ‘I wanna celebrate you son, more than you’ll ever know. Love you more now and forever.’

At the time, Drake also shared a photo of him holding a bouquet of roses, along with brief videos of several friends on the heels of the album’s release.

Over the years, he has also dedicated lyrics and songs to her as well as talked about her in interviews.

‘My mother is an incredible woman…I talk about her a lot on this album [Nothing Was The Same, released Sept. 24]. She’s brought me to this point single-handedly…She’s the most important person in my life,’ he told Huffington Post in 2013.

‘Sandra Gale [burning heart emoji],’ the 35-year-old God’s Plan hitmaker captioned a snaps of the new tat and various other photos

Drake’s tattoo comes days after he poked fun at his dad for poking fun of his dad Dennis Graham getting the rapper’s face permanently etched on his arm five years ago.

‘I was just sitting here thinking why you do me like this we family,’ he captioned a picture of his father’s arm.

His musician father, 67, wasn’t upset with the playful jab, explaining that he tried to fix the artwork: ‘Hahaha I had 16 people to try and straighten this out, they’re hurting me.’

He then added a couple of tender words for his son, writing, ‘I love you and miss you.’

The ink, which resides on the upper part of Graham’s shoulder, depicts a younger Drake without his beard and with a short haircut.

Graham senior first revealed the tattoo of his son’s face – done by artist Money Mike – in 2017.

The God’s Plan hitmaker apparently has a total of 35 tattoos, including portraits of legendary singer Sade on his chest, a tattoo of singer Aaliyah on his back, and a tribute to the late Louis Vuitton designer Virgil Abloh, who died in 2021.
