drake soaked up the best of his world in Houston last night for his 38th birthday…a healthy dinner with his loving parents – before sunning himself with the boys in stripper paradise!!!

The hip-hop megastar came back to life last night at a restaurant surrounded by his family and friends… and a giant three-piece cake that reminded him of his age – filled with fiery sparklers!!!

He later headed out with his camp to Drake's favorite strip club in the city, Area 29 – the same location as this one threw the impostor he lost his fame a few years ago.

Drake rapped along to the track on camera – the track seems to fit his super-viral beef this year, with references to running with Toronto boys who don't feel like working out.
