Drake and 21 Savage released their “Spin Bout U” music video 3 days ago and people are transfixed by the girl they chose to be the main character in the video, Precious Lee.
Precious Lee is a honey-glazed dark-skinned plus-sized model cast as the main character in this new hit song.
Many dark-skinned plus-sized girls as well as others commended the rappers for choosing what is rather considered to be not ordinary.
"I hope this becomes normal, and that one day size won't have to be a beauty standard or trend for publicity," a fan Breon Jazzel posted on his socials.
"A real pretty big girl and I've never seen no big girl be the main character in a video like this," another fan Dilah shared.

In one of Drake's verses, he says “Dude put hands on you in the past, insecure because your body is precious,” in reference to appreciating plus-sized women.
Precious Lee is not only a model but an actress, writer, and advocate for race and size diversity.
She started her career in fashion at the age of 18 when she first attended an open call in Atlanta.
Lee has always known what she wanted to do even though it was not the norm to be a plus-sized dark skin model.
After college, she signed with Ford Models in New York and not long after she became the first black plus-sized model to appear in American Vogue in 2015.
She has also appeared in Essence, Paper Magazine, and Harpers Bazaar.
In addition to that she has walked for Versace, Balmain, and Moschino and partnered with a number of brands including Calvin Klein.

In a post that the honey glazed babe posted in her socials after she won the GQ International Model of the Year, she talked on how it took courage and vulnerability to share ones talent.
She thrived in this to show other women like her that they can do it too.
