    The day is in honor of the hitmaker’s community support, such as his Bank Account Campaign which provides ‘financial literacy education to underserved youth.’

    Along with free finance courses, the non-profit also ‘provides scholarships, access to bank accounts and job placement for teens and students alike.’ 

    The Leading By Example Foundation was launched in 2018.

    Along with giving back to the community, 21 Savage also treated his fans to new music in October.

    He released a collaborative album with rapper Drake, titled Her Loss, on October 28.

    Drake and 21, born Shéyaa Bin Abraham-Joseph, have worked together on a number of songs in the past including Knife Talk, Mr. Right Now and many more. 

    The title of their most recent collaboration was a nod to Drake’s Degrassi: The Next Generation character Jimmy Brooks.
