Drake showed up to Canada’s MuchMusic Awards show last night rocking a red cardigan and something that every rapper must have when on stage at a music award show: a red cup.
Drake didn’t have just one red cup, he actually had two red cups. Which means he drank his first red cup backstage and re-uped with a second cup before he babysat Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez.

There’s no telling what Drake had in his red cup, but GlobalGrind could probably guess it started with a H and ended with -ennessy.
In his song “Made Men” Drake raps, “Riding through the city/Plastic cup of Henny.” Who knew this hopeless romantic Canadian, loved such a hard liquor? Hennessy ain’t for the faint at heart, but maybe it helps Drake write his rhymes about drunk dialing.

Obviously, Drake isn’t the only rapper who carries a red cup on his hip like a newborn baby. Rappers like Asher Roth, Ludacris, Nelly and Wiz Khalifa are always spotted toting around red cups on stage, backstage and around the stage.
If there’s a stage and a rapper, there’s a red cup and rapper.
