Drake delivers rich flex by turning his basketball court into a T-shirt closet

This musical A-lister, known for his lavish displays of wealth, just raised the bar with this truly outrageous look inside his “closet.”

When mere mortals have a wardrobe clean-out, we pile our clothes on the bed.

Rap superstar Drake moves his closet to the indoor basketball court in his Toronto mansion.

The Grammy-winning musician doesn’t mind a rich flex but he raised the bar with his Instagram post showing off his T-shirt kingdom.

“Where’s that one shirt though…,” he captioned the ostentatious warehouse-sized display.

Whoever organised his collection did a spectacular job, neatly arranging the thousands of T-shirts on tables and racks by colour and sleeve length.

“Let me look for that shirt one sec..,” Drake commented a couple of hours after posting the photo.

Fans went nuts over his wardrobe wealth.

Some played Where’s Wally over the collection and spotting vintage sports tees and a tie-dyed Turks and Caicos souvenir shirt probably picked up on one of his holidays at the islands.

The corner of one maroon shirt prompted some Aussie fans to suggest it might the Queensland Reds jersey he sported during his tour here in February, which was abruptly cut short due to that old “scheduling conflict” excuse.

He has collected a wide range of vintage sports apparel, with shirts from the Seattle Seahawks, Los Angeles Clippers and Milwaukee Bucks.

“Boutta show this pic to my mom to prove to her that I’m not a hoarder,” commented rapper Russ.

“This is just overflow, show the rest,” demanded Drake’s trainer Roxx.

“I bet he stares at that and says he got nothing to wear,” posted one fan.

Others who zoomed in on the collection spotted the rap star perusing the racks (left hand side about three rows down from the top).

It’s not the first time Champagne Papi (his social media handle) has shown off his champagne lifestyle, or the NBA regulation-sized basketball court in his $150 million manor house he calls the Embassy.

The mega mansion also features an indoor swimming pool, a state-of-the-art recording studio and a bed that weights one tonne and features a recessed whiskey and champagne bar in the headboard.

The Hotline Bling star remains embroiled in his legal war with his label Universal, suing the world’s biggest record company for defamation over their promotion of the Kendrick Lamar diss track Not Like Us.
