Drake seems ready for his move to Texas, as he is clearly putting effort into looking the part.
On Monday (Jun 17), Drizzy visited the Brenham Saddle Shop. The Western wear store is located approximately 10 miles out from Chappell Hill, which is where he recently purchased a home.

“Yesterday we received a call that a certain person wanted to stop by our store,” the retail outlet posted on Facebook, along with a photograph of the employees posing with the 6 God.
“We dropped everything and opened up for a few hours. We didn’t know what to expect but the whole experience was beyond what we expected. Every single person in his group was extremely friendly and welcoming. Thank you Drake and his team for stopping by and getting all fixed up [cowboy emoji]. Welcome to Washington County, Texas!”
Last year, the Canadian superstar bought a 313-acre resort located 45 minutes from Houston for a cool $15 million.
The former resort named the Inn at Dos Brisas closed its doors back in 2022 due to financial issues stemming from the coronavirus pandemic. The following year, Drake swooped in and copped the real-estate gem.

Built in 2002, the property features four casitas (cottages) for guest lodging, an entertainment lodge, a commercial kitchen, a climate-controlled wine room, several pools, a full equestrian facility and more.
The “Hotline Bling” hitmaker teased the purchase back in September with a country-themed post.

“Me and my partna,’ we done gone country on ya’ll, mane,” he said in a video clip posted to Instagram, donning a light blue denim hat bearing an American flag. “We said we was going to do it for a lot of years — we doing it today.
“The sale is made, for sure. They said 10 horses belong to the property and four of them are boarding horses […] Yeah, buddy. Yeah, buddy. You got to drop a new one for this. If you see your girl at the Lover Boy Lane, it’s over.”
The Toronto native first revealed his plans during a tour stop in Houston earlier that week.
“I want to tell you something,” he told a packed crowd. “I had to make it official first. I’ve been looking for a long time trying to figure out, you know, the right place for me to live, where I belong outside of Toronto,” he began in a clip captured by a fan, to an uproar of fans.

“And I finally, finally after all these years found me a place in Houston, Texas,” he revealed. Concluding with a country accent he announced, “So ya’ll be seeing me around – yeah.”
A decade ago, Houston honored the rapper and singer by declaring June 10 “Drake Day.”
