Drake Accuses Stake Of Blocking His Payouts After Blasting The Gambling Platform Over Alleged Mistreatment
Of Talent: ‘Is It Personal?’
Drake is publicly calling out crypto gambling platform Stake, claiming several attempts he’s made to withdraw money were blocked without explanation.
The rap star shared a screenshot on his Instagram Story showing a message from a customer service rep who wrote,
“We were unfortunately unable to process your last withdrawal attempt as well.” Drake added as a caption over the post: “4 withdraw attempts blocked on @stake with no explanation…Is it personal?”
His complaint comes shortly after Drake appeared to announce he’s cut ties with Stake after partnering with them for years. On a recent livestream hosted by fellow Stake endorser Trainwreck, Drake took to the comments section to blast the platform’s executives Ed Craven and Bijan Tehrani for how they treat talent, reportedly writing:
“Eddie been dissing the owls f**k Eddie… F**k this goof… W’s for my brother TRAIN tonight… They want smoke with ovo so its uppppppp…MAX them and have a great stream… We built this s**t… And they treat us like s**t still.”
Drake’s withdrawal troubles are surprising considering he reportedly earned $100 million annually endorsing Stake, according to a 2023 Financial Times report. He was known for heavily promoting the platform, often sharing his wins with fans.
Are you surprised to see Drake publicly clash with a brand he once heavily promoted?
