Drake found himself on the receiving end when he got involved with Rihanna, a rare twist for the suave and smooth rapper. The Diamonds singer commanded attention with undeniable charm and wielded power in her love life. It’s no surprise that Rihanna used Drake as a pawn and ultimately discarded him, just like the many women he had used, before settling down with A$AP Rocky.

Their short-lived romance began in 2009 when the two were rumored to be romantically linked. An onlooker spotted them together at a restaurant in New York, and fans reported they were “making out” the whole time.

“She was drinking whiskey and apple juice and making out with him all night. They were really cute together”

It didn’t take long for reports that the two were an item to spread like wildfire. And it even seemed like things were developing between them when Rihanna asked Drake to write a song about their alleged romance.

Even though Rihanna asked Drake to write a song for her, the two never released it. Their relationship appeared to be blossoming but RiRi called it quits not long after this.

The rapper finally opened up about their separation, revealing that he felt like “a pawn” in Rihanna’s game.

“ I was a pawn. You know what she was doing to me? She was doing exactly what I’ve done to so many women throughout my life, which is show them quality time, then disappear.”

The rapper received the same treatment he gave to other women – it was a strange episode of Karma. But the Barbadian singer had her reasons for ending things. Drake was left with mixed emotions when he heard Rihanna was expecting her first child with her now boyfriend, ASAP Rocky.

Although Rihanna moved on, Drake always admired the Umbrella singer and even dubbed her his “ultimate fantasy.” But unfortunately, she never reciprocated his feelings. For the unversed, Drake shares a 4-year-old son with ex-partner Sophie Brussaux.

In the end, it appears that Rihanna used Drake as a pawn in her game, leaving him feeling like one of the many women he uses and discards. But he’s not the first, nor will he be the last. Rihanna’s love life has always been a rollercoaster ride, and her relationships have been the subject of many headlines. But one thing is for sure, she’ll always be a queen when it comes to love, and her exes hardly matter.
