EXCLUSIVE: Drake Could Reveal How Much His Stake Partnership Pays

Drake’s massive Stake earnings could be exposed as gamblers demand records tracing his payments, referrals and promotional reach across New Mexico.

Nathaniel Torres and Rory Michie want access to financial information controlled by Drake, Adin Ross and Stake before the rapper leaves their proposed class action.

Their latest filing seeks Drake’s Stake business records alongside data showing how many New Mexico residents used his referral links or promotional codes.

“Plaintiffs ask Drake and Ross to identify the number of New Mexico residents that have engaged with their Stake-related content across platforms, or that have used their referral links and promotional codes, based on the tools they use to track the geographic location of their viewers and followers.”

The requested information could reveal how much business Drake generated for Stake and whether New Mexico gamblers added to his partnership’s value.

The plaintiffs admit they cannot currently calculate Drake’s local customer base, sales volume or revenue because that private information remains controlled by the defendants.

“Defendants are not passive actors whose Internet content happens to drift into New Mexico,” the filing states. “They are sophisticated commercial entertainment promoters who deliberately exploit the New Mexico market by partnering with an illegal online casino platform, streaming interactive gambling content, and monetizing their influence through subscriptions, referrals, and engagement-driven revenue.”

Drake and Ross deny creating promotions specifically for New Mexico, arguing their nationwide content does not give the state power over them.

The plaintiffs say Stake invested millions into both partnerships because Drake and Ross can steer enormous audiences toward its gambling products.

“Their business model depends on reaching as many users as possible, including New Mexico residents, and converting that reach into gambling activity on Stake.us.”

The filing also says Kick gives streamers 95 percent of their subscription revenue while Stake provides Drake and Ross with gambling funds during promotional broadcasts.

Earlier AllHipHop coverage detailed accusations that Stake disguised real-money betting through virtual currencies while using celebrities to attract younger customers.

The potential scale of Drake’s gambling activity was visible again Saturday when he wagered $650,000 on Joshua Van at UFC 331.

Van defeated Alexandre Pantoja by unanimous decision, giving Drake a $1.098 million total return and approximately $448,500 in profit through Stake.

That single wager exceeded Van’s disclosed $500,000 fight purse and demonstrates why the plaintiffs believe Drake’s unseen Stake financial records could contain enormous figures.
