Riff Raff has apparently dropped $500,000 to rent out Drake's home studio.

Riff Raff has offered up $500,000 to rent out Drake's home studio for two according to the studio booking app, Stufinder. The company revealed Riff Raff's move on Twitter, over the weekend. They later announced that they'd be pausing the listing for Drake's spot until the rapper confirms that he is the one who put up the offer.

“We have reached out to Drake and his team to get confirmation that he did in fact list his home recording studio on our app,” the company said in a statement. “Session requests can be sent to the studio but to prevent a scam, we have paused the ability for the studio to accept bookings till we receive confirmation. RiFF RAFF’s payment is currently on hold and will be refunded if we don’t receive confirmation. We will verify all studios before allowing bookings.” In the listing on Stufinder, the description notes that a "Drake feature is not included" in the purchase of any studio time.

"FanDuel bets and inflation got Drizzy trying to beef up his pockets," one fan joked in response to Drake's listing. Another wrote: "Some dudes who really don’t got the money like that will book it with all their money and put out a flopper that’ll make them no money." One fan pointed out that aspiring rappers could buy their own house with the money needed to rent out the studio. "Booking an hour session at someone else’s house, when you can buy a house is crazy," they wrote.

The listing comes after Barstool's Caleb Pressley recently detailed what it was like entering Drake's home for his recent interview with the rapper. Speaking with Theo Von, Pressley explained that he was in the house for nearly two hours before he saw Drake. “His security’s insane," Pressley remarked. "He has the most security. You ever seen security? Imagine more.” Pressley also spoke with Drake’s son, Adonis, for the rare interview.
