Canadian rapper Drake has been hard at work making international stars feel right at home when they visit his hometown.

After being hospitable to Cristiano Ronaldo after Portugal's game at the FIFA World Cup in Canada, he paid South African DJ Black Coffee a surprise visit.

Black Coffee's bicycle causes stir

In a previous report from Briefly News, Black Coffee's R371,000 Hermès bicycle stunned many people as some questioned whether any bicycle could really be worth that much.

People offered mixed responses online, with some calling the purchase wasteful and some making light-hearted jokes about the hefty price tag. Fans of the DJ, however, note his hardwork has garnered him much wealth, so he is free to use it however he sees fit.
