Young Money’s Drake snagged a $250,000 pay day for a performance this weekend at a bar mitzvah in New York.

The orginal plans called for Kanye West, but didn’t want to pay the  $1,000,000 price tag.

Former NBC President/CEO Jeff Zucker hosted the bar mitzvah for his son Andrew on Saturday night (May 7th) in Manhattan and according to The New York Post, Chicago rap star Kanye West was the Zucker family’s original choice of entertainment.

Sources close to the family said that the Zucker’s considered spending $800,000 on West, but decided on Drake, who was considerably cheaper.
The celebration, which included Drake’s performance, food and wines,  cost over $250,000.
