Drake revealed that the song 'Too Good' was written for Serena Williams. In a video published online where the 37-year-old artist is seen talking to his mother, he mentions that his inspiration behind this piece was the famous tennis player.
"This song is about me and Serena", Drake is heard saying, adding: “It's funny, because when I write songs about women, I write songs about them. So I know exactly what kind of songs to make."
He went on to say that he thinks Serena Williams would never hate him for the part.

"If I'm going to talk about them, I'll at least do them the honor of playing them a song they like. Well, I know Serena very well and I know she'll hear it loud and clear, but she also won't hate me for it because she's beautiful", He said.
When his mother asked if Serena was "dating someone else," the rapper quickly replied, "I don't know, mom."
We remember that the artist and the tennis player were a couple in 2011 for a very short time, without either of them admitting it. Afterwards, many people from their environment confirmed the romance. Although their relationship reportedly ended badly, the two have remained good friends.
