NFL superstar Odell Beckham Jr. has dished on his personal relationship with hip-hop stud Drake and revealed how much of a close-knit bond they have this week.
According to Odell, they recently hooked up and traveled overseas together.
“We took a trip to London. Before I took the trip, I was already like, ‘I want to get away from the world. I just want to go somewhere.’ And next thing you know, it was maybe the next day, he called me like, ‘Yo, man, I’m going to London. Come with me.’ I was like, ‘Bet. Where you need me to be?’ I went out to London.” (Draft Kings)
Yesterday (April 26), Odell spoke on the motivation Drizzy brings him.
“Yeah, it was a nice little place to stay, it was cool, for sure,’’ Beckham said after the hour-long practice inside the field house. “Something so motivating just about being there, waking up every morning and you go see a place like that, it’s like you don’t work that hard to get like ‘I want this, that and the other’ but you do it so ‘I’ve worked that hard so I can do that.’ It was just so motivating to wake up there every day, it made me want to be that, it made me want to be more successful.'” (NY Post)
Earlier this month, footage of Beckham working out to rapper Young Thug’s music at Drake’s spot emerged.

A few days prior, the NFL stud revealed he had been staying at Drizzy’s home as he fine-tuned the upcoming Views From The 6 album.
“Weird enough, I’m actually staying at his place right now while he’s finishing the album. I’m just out there working out. He needs to chill out with that house he has out there. There’s just too much going on.” (DraftKings)

When is this kid going to come out the closet? It’s obvious he has a romantic interest in Drake. No man should be speaking as often as he does about some dude he just recently met. He stays at his house, obsesses over him publicly, travels with him etc. Never once saw this guy with a woman who didn’t look random and staged being with him. A young good looking millionaire who could have any woman he wanted, and he’s constantly surrounded by men. Spends the season with men. Spends his offseason with men. I don’t get it. This nigga is a fag on steroids smh
