When he was 19, Drake apparently suffered from an addiction, and wrote a letter to his mother to apologize for the burden said addiction was causing.

Drake’s addiction, however, didn’t involve booze or drugs, but online shopping!

Drake shared the evidence on Instagram, posting a sweet letter he wrote his mom back in 1996 to apologize for his over-spending on eBay.

“Dear Mom,” he writes. “I have cancelled the WireImage subscription due to my eBay charges coming to more than I had planned for. Please know that you will be reimbursed fully through several methods and/or means of payment.”

He concludes: “Thanks for temporarily funding my music and wardrobe.”

In the caption, Drake writes: “eBay was the addiction back in 2006. Def come a long way and it’s safe to say I most likely settled this debt. 😂😂😂 #NothingWithoutMyMom #IProbablyBoughtSomeEvisuJeans”
