Drake explains the meaning of Chanukah to Lil Wayne
“So it’s like Christmas, but for Jewish people.”
“What’s that?”
Drake shifted uncomfortably at the head of the Young Money/Cash Money conference room. His power point presentation was not going over very well. He had prepared slides with menorahs and dreidels and everything, though.
“Wait what?” Drake was wearing a sweater with a dreidel on it. Instead of things written in Hebrew on the dreidel, it was just a picture of his own face.
“Druids people. What’s that?”
“Judaism, Wayne. It’s a beautiful religion. Chanukah is a celebration of life and light.” it was snowing outside, or at least it looked like it was—Birdman had ordered a snow machine to create a winter wonderland in the balmy New Orleans headquarters of YMCMB. Just to one-up the No Limit people, Birdman had ordered this snow in a special formula that featured both diamonds and cocaine. Birdman knew how to get into the holiday spirit.
“Only religion I believe in is these streets.” Lil Wayne spat on the floor.
“But…” it was too late. Lil Wayne stormed out of the room in a huff. Drake was going to show him a Matisyahu video next. He sniffled. He reached under the conference table and pulled out a package wrapped in old Snoopy comics. On the bow, he had attached a note that said, “To: W. From: D.”
He opened it. It was a sweater with a menorah on it, with little pictures of Lil Wayne’s head where each candle was supposed to go. It had been for his best friend. Drake sighed, and put it on over his own.
