CHICAGO -- There is a new lawsuit against rapper Drake, who's being sued for allegedly promoting an illegal and fraudulent gambling scheme.
When Drake is not making music, the rap superstar boasts on social media he's making millions through online gambling.
"Gambling online is just, it's a wherever, whenever kind of thing. You know, I've gambled at a restaurant. I've gambled on a plane," he said.
On Wednesday, a new lawsuit accused the rapper of glamorizing online gambling while misleading fans, some of them teenagers.
Drake has a partnership with the online casino Stake.
When he posts about placing big bets, the lawsuit says, it's not his money, but house money. So any reported losses are part of a marketing tactic designed to draw attention.
