Jill Scott celebrates Drake's new musical offering – Dark Lane Demo – with a throwback flick. See their shot, plus learn why Drizzy decided to share pictures of his son, Adonis Graham, inside…

Drake dropped a new project – Dark Lane Demo – to kick off the weekend. The project mainly features loose tracks that have leaked over the years. In the opening song, “Deep Pockets,” Drizzy gives soulful songstress Jill Scott a shoutout. He raps:

”Back when Jill Scott was the apple of my afrocentric eye/ I had to find a way to get someone's attention.”

Jilly From Philly caught wind of the shoutout and gave him a shoutout on her IG. She shared a throwback pic of herself and Drizzy from a fundraising party she threw in Philly years ago and the cover art to his new project.

"Back when Drake was the wiggle in my giggle-white Lamborghini, Maserati @champagnepapi Respect and congratulations Doc,” she captioned.

Ha!  So for the folks wondering if she has some explaining to do, and if she's hinting at a previous hook up, it sounds like she's just returning the favor with some bars of her own.

We've known Drake has been a father since 2018 thanks to his rap beef with Pusha T. However, fans haven't seen pics of mini Drizzy until recently when the Canadian rapper posted pics of his 2-year-old son, Adonis Graham.

"I love and miss my beautiful family and friends and I can’t wait for the joyful day when we are all able to reunite. Until then please keep your lights on," he wrote in the caption of a series of pictures revealing his son for the first time.

Drizzy opened up about why he decided to reveal his son to the masses during an interview on “Young Money Radio” with Lil Wayne. Wayne welcomed Drizzy to fatherhood and said he can't wait to meet his son.

"I posted those pictures, it was great for me. It was great to just share that with the world. I wasn't even anything I talked to anybody about or anything I planned. I just woke up one morning, and I was like, you know what? This is just something that I want to do. I want to be able to go places with my son and share memories with my son. I don't want to feel like just because of a life choice I made to be, you know, a 'celebrity' that I got to make everybody live under this blanket. I just wanted to free myself of that. And you know, I've watched you be a functioning rap father and that's given me a lot of confidence."

Later, Wayne talked about how his sons are using their celebrity to try and pick up popular girls on TikTok. Lord.
