Drake stepped up at the Juno Awards on March 29th to induct his close friend, Nelly Frattato, into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame. He dropped a warm, reflective tribute full of respect for her career, but true to form, he slipped in some lingering shade about an award snub from. Way back, he called out the Junos for overlooking him in 2011, tying it to one of his early albums. Thing is, he wasn't up for that specific project then. He got nominated for his debut instead, and he actually took home rap recording of the year, THE. Following year for the one he referenced, people online lit up over Drake's mix of graciousness and grudge-holding, classic for the Toronto star who never fully let's go of past lights. It highlighted his long history with Canadian awards, where he's one big, but still feels some awards got away. The speech wrapped with more love for Frattato, calling her spot long overdue, before he pivoted to his own grind.
