  "account": "Drake hosted Stake's 9th anniversary livestream, marking another step in his streaming journey. NELK Boys co-founder Kyle Forgeard led a 20-vs.-1 speed-dating show, which narrowed down to three women and a game of \"wife, pipe, bestie.\" The highlight of the stream was Drake barking commands to a \"goth baddie\" streamer. Throughout the event, Drake was seen with various streamers like BenDaDon, paid tribute to Tate McRae, and sent a message to the rap industry. He addressed his feelings towards the term \"tricking\" and even took a jab at Roc Nation. Drake captioned a photo from the livestream, saying \"My second 20 V 1 was almost as lit as the first.\" He has recently been giving back generously, hosting his third annual Strong Women, Stronger Drinks event and also giving away a $50,000 prize to a Stake stream viewer. In the music realm, Drake released a trifecta of albums ICEMAN, HABIBTI, and MAID OF HONOUR in May, becoming the first to debut albums simultaneously in the top three slots of the Billboard 200. Drake seems to be maintaining his collaboration with Stake, hinting at a potential 10th anniversary stream at a yacht in 2027.",
