The gifts were also sent to various Toronto media outlets without explanation; however sources told Pitchfork that details were coming soon.
On Tuesday night, Drake fueled anticipation by posting an Instagram video that teased the More Life Growth Co. The clip showed a biodome surrounded by trees. Drake also tagged the company's private Instagram account that simply read "Coming soon."
Though Drake has yet to confirm the nature of the business, the U.S. and Canadian trademark databases have seemingly provided the answer.
