Drake + Weed = GREAT FOR EVERYONE!!!
… So says Al Harrington, the former NBA player turned marijuana mogul who tells TMZ Sports a superstar like Drake is HUGE for the entire pot community.
As we previously reported, Drake is launching the More Life Growth Company … hoping to cash in on the crop craze by selling everything from vapes to pipes, rolling papers, hookahs and more.
Harrington has been in the weed game for a while — he created Viola Extracts Inc. after retiring from the NBA and it’s been growing like crazy.
Now, with Drake entering the space … we asked Al if he viewed Drake as a competitor or an ally.
“I hope he win, bro! I need him to win because then I’ll win,” Harrington said.
Harrington says Drake’s foray into the ganja biz is “amazing … a huge announcement for the industry.”
Oh, and Al says if Drake wants to team up and collaborate on a product … HIT HIM UP!!!
“Welcome, Drake! Let’s get it, baby!”
