- Drake posted video of his luxury dressing room flooded with inches of water
- Mansion had attempted break-ins amid his feud with Kendrick Lamar in May
- READ MORE: Break-in came a day after Drake's security guard was shot outside
Drake shared a video of his Toronto mansion experiencing major flooding during a massive storm that struck the Canadian city on Tuesday.
The 37-year-old rapper posted a clip on his Instagram Stories, seemingly from his perspective, showing him wading through his luxury dressing room with water up to his ankles.
The water covers the floor, with a man at the dressing room's doors, struggling in vain to keep them closed against the deluge.
Showing off his trademark wit, Drake compared the brown water to a coffee-flavored cocktail, as he captioned the clip, 'This better be Espresso Martini.'
The torrential rainfall has reportedly left over 100,000 Canadian citizens without power, as Toronto's four inches of rainfall shattered the city's rainfall record dating back to 1941, according to Environment Canada.

Drake, whose real name is Aubrey Graham, made waves in 2015 when he embarked on building his lavish Toronto home, purchasing the plot for $6.7 million.
He reportedly invested $100 million in constructing the sprawling estate, located on one of Canada's most prestigious streets.
Despite his privacy regarding his residence, the artist has occasionally treated fans to glimpses of the luxurious property on social media, showcasing features like his private basketball court.
The flooding comes two months after Drake's $100 million estate, nicknamed the Embassy, had several attempted break-ins.
On May 11, Drake's security team reportedly detained another alleged intruder at the home of the rapper for the third time in a week — not including the drive-by shooting of another guard.
In photos and images obtained by TMZ, one man is seen holding down another man, who has his arms behind his back, on the lawn outside of the gates.
It was reported that one of the security guards made a call for help while the other subdued the alleged trespasser without much effort on his own.
The Toronto Police Service told the outlet that officers arrived at Drake's home at 3:30 PM ET, where then escorted a lone male off the property after he refused to leave. The unidentified man was then ticketed.

The first incident involved an early morning shooting of a security guard outside of his mansion gates on May 8.
Toronto Police told DailyMail.com they could not confirm if the Hotline Bling hitmaker was at his residence at the time of the shooting.
Then, police officers were called to his home around 2 p.m. a few days later after an intruder tried to break into his home.
Once again, police responded to another call about a trespasser at around 3:30 p.m. the following day, according to a statement from Toronto Police spokesperson Shannon Eames as reported by USA Today.
The intruder was reportedly involved in an 'altercation' with multiple security guards outside of Drake's $100 million mansion before the police arrived.
The trespasser was later taken to the hospital.
It's unclear if there is any connection between the intruders, or the drive-by shooting, to Drake's widely publicized feud with Lamar, 36, which has been carried out via viral diss tracks.
Although the police mentioned that they were aware of the feud, they said there wasn't currently any indication that the incidents were related.

However, the shooting and attempted invasions at Drake's Toronto mansion comes after Lamar taunted him by using his home as his cover art.
In the past few months, the rival rappers have released 'diss tracks' against each other.
For his track Not Like Us, Lamar used an image of Drake's mansion covered in markers from a sex offender app.
Meanwhile, if necessary, Drake can seek refuge from the Toronto flooding in his $15 million mansion in Texas.
