Drake Invests in Plant-Based Chicken Company

Drake Announces 'Certified Lover Boy' Delay: 'My Energy Has Been Dedicated to Recovery'

In case you didn’t know, the Certified Lover Boy, Drake, is vegan and he is making sure what goes into his stomach matches his money, investing in a new company for plant-based chicken.

The superstar Canadian has purchased a stake in Daring Foods. According to Bloomberg, Daring is a Los Angeles-based food company that specializes in mock chicken. Drake is among those who have invested in a round of funding by D1 Capital Partners.

“The first wave of plant-based was really focused on taste and texture, but then you had the sacrifice of other elements, like health,” said Ross Mackay, a co-founder who serves as Daring’s chief executive officer.

Daring highlights low calories and a short ingredient list. The new funds will triple the retail products, which already include Kroger and Costco, to over 4,500 U.S. stores.

Drake now finds his name on a list with the likes of Serena Williams and Jay-Z, who are investing in faux meat companies.
