Drake fans know how important Sade is to the Canadian rapper, and, for his 30 birthday, Drake received a special gift from the British singer. Sade sent Drake a framed photo of her "Babyfather" single artwork along with a note that read, "The 24th of October 1986 was a good day... Shine on, Drake. Love Sade.” Drake showed off the gift on Instagram, writing in the caption, "Woke up to see the most beautiful woman ever in my house.”

Drake has long admired Sade and even told MTV News that he was trying get Sade on his Thank Me Later album in 2010. Sade later said she had never been contacted about the collaboration. Drake began celebrating his birthday on Sunday, premiering new music during a special guest mix on OVO Sound Radio, then heading to a party in West Hollywood, where his dad sang him "Happy Birthday."
