OVO Sound boss Drake is letting his emotions loose. The 6 God has come forward to remember the life of late Canadian music legend Gord Downie.
Drizzy went to Instagram early Thursday (October 19) to speak on Downie’s legacy.
This week, Downie’s family issued a public statement on his death.

Gord is most known for leading the way for his rock group Tragically Hip.
Formed in 1984, the Hip, as the band is commonly called, became one of Canada’s premiere groups with hits such as “Wheat Kings,” “Bobcaygeon” and “Ahead by a Century.” City and Colour’s Dallas Green told The Canadian Press in June 2016 that Downie was “the gold standard — the way he writes and cares about music and the way he cares about the song.” “If you’re a musician and you’re born in Canada it’s in your DNA to like the Tragically Hip,” Green said.
