After Moosewala's killing, Drake had paid tribute to the popular Punjabi singer. "RIP MOOSE @sidhu_moosewala," he had captioned a picture of the "So High" hitmaker with his mother. In 2020, Drake made headlines when he started following Moosewala on Instagram. 

Moosewala, who counted Drake as one of his music influences and followed him on social media, was a regular performer at live shows in Canada.
