After reports and rumors swirled earlier this year about Drake’s having a secret child, the rapper seemingly confirmed the news when he dropped his new album, "Scorpion."
The Canadian rapper released the new record Thursday and addresses the rumors in multiple songs.

He also addressed the news in another song, "March 14," citing a classic Michael Jackson hit, "She's not my lover like Billie Jean, but the kid is mine." The rapper, born Aubrey Graham, continues to wax on about how his mother used to tell him that "it only takes one time" to have a baby and how, as a single father, he's doing his best to see "him sometimes."
"I don’t want you worry about whose house you live at or who loves you more," he continues to say about co-parenting in the song.
In yet a third song, Drake also mentions kissing his son on the forehead.
The rumors about Drake's child began earlier this year when his former rival Pusha T released a song called “The Story of Adidon,” where he said the Drake had a secret child. Up until this new album, Drake had not addressed the issue.
Pusha T later said in an interview with Vanity Fair that he and Drake had squashed their beef.
