Drake delighted thousands of high school youngsters in the US as he made a surprise appearance to film a music video.

The rapper and R&B star dropped into Miami Senior High School where he reportedly donated 25,000 US dollars before backing a student at the University of Miami with a 50,000 dollar scholarship.

Shown sporting a Martin Luther King t-shirt in photos and video clips shared on social media by students, Drake also announced he would be designing a new uniform for the high school.

She wrote she had applied for a scholarship last year with an essay and was contacted this week about recording a video about her upbringing in South Carolina.

She added: “Drake told me that he has read great things about me and appreciates how hard I’ve worked through so many trials and decided to give me $50K for my tuition.

“You are so great and amazing! Thank you for blessing me when I thought my hard work was going unnoticed. I’m living out my dreams.”
