Drake may be young, but the Toronto rapper’s lyrics can be mature beyond his years.
In the remix to Fabolous’ “Put It in the Bag,” his verse was actually inspired by a previous relationship he had with an older woman.
“I used to talk to this woman that was 35-plus,” Drake laughed. “I’m a mature individual.”
At the time, he was a barely 20-year-old upstart MC. Aside from simply enjoying dating a more experienced woman, Drake said he was drawn to her perspective — she framed the world much differently than he did at the time.
“It was kind of, like, what she saw in me,” the 22-year-old explained. “I say in the song, ‘She just wants that feeling back, I make her feel young again.’ We were doing things young people do, like just going swimming late at night. Just chilling, drinking, like kicking it, talking. But it was so intriguing for me. The appeal was obvious. I think I can also maybe even say I felt guilty to the fact that it was a bit of a story to tell, that’s why I was doing it. But I like older women, period. I never end up dating — seriously — women that are my age.”
The Lil Wayne protégé went on to add that more often than not he finds himself in relationships with women pushing 30. “Maybe it’s the way I carry myself,” he said.
As for that particular older woman?
“When I hear that song now on the radio, I just laugh,” Drake said. “I wonder if she ever hears it. I lost contact with her.”

DRAKE KEEP DATING OLDER WOMAN…….KEEP THE LIL GIRLS FOR THE ROAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m a younger person and I can handle things that a lot of women have not been through. I look at the world completely different because life is too short to be worried about dumb shit. I am very experienced for my age trust me! All I’m asking is not to judge all younger women, because a lot of older women are just as immature. Yeah you right about the what he can do or what you can do for him bull but honestly at the prime of his career do you really think he’s looking for a permanent female???????? If so, my be!
I LOVE YOU DRAKE!!!!!!
I can see why he would be drawn to older women because he is so intelligent and already pretty mature at still a young age. I think this is what sets him apart from many of his peers.
i remember drake from the early episodes of Degrassi, I thought he was cute then.
I think its cute to like older people, but honestly there are a lot of young females who are very mature. Just have to look real good and you will find them! Oh yeah and for the people who leave stuff up here for Drake, do you honestly think he is gonna read it???????
