The financial bleeding accelerated following the onset of his high-profile feud with Kendrick Lamar. According to TheDrakeCurse.com, the artist has shed $7.20 million since the release of the diss track "Euphoria" on April 30, 2024. This streak of misfortune recently extended to the 2026 World Cup, where a $1.5 million wager on Argentina to defeat Spain ended in a 1-0 loss for the rapper.
The Drake Curse: Rapper Loses Millions in High-Stakes Sports Betting
With 88 wagers placed since early 2022, Drake’s foray into sports gambling has resulted in a net loss of $3.06 million. The rapper’s unconventional betting habits have become so statistically significant that a dedicated website now tracks his misses, highlighting a win rate that hovers at just 35.7 percent.
Despite the pattern of failure, his track record is not entirely devoid of success. While major professional leagues remain his primary source of losses, Drake has found an unlikely niche in cricket. He has placed three bets on the sport over the years, winning every single one and netting nearly $1 million in total profit. These rare victories, however, remain outliers in a portfolio that has seen $40.2 million in total capital deployed with limited return.
