The Vossi Bop star shared a video of him unboxing the surprise gift en route to the airport for his European leg of his H.I.T.H World tour.
He tweeted: ‘Are you mad the first Greggs black card @GreggsOfficial I have peaked this is brilliant,’ followed by crying laughing emojis.
The rapper also wrote on Instagram: ‘Public Service Announcement: The game has changed forever. Check this.’
While Greggs is remaining relatively tight-lipped about its new special service, in the video its concierge service boasts special pastry privileges including the option to order whatever you wants, whenever you want.

Last week we reported Greggs fans will soon be able to pick up their favourite baked goods at their local branch of Asda.
The supermarket is set to launch Greggs counters in five of its branches across the UK, including Boldon, Corby, Huyton, Wigan and Eastlands.
The concession stores will offer the bakery chain’s full menu, which includes its popular vegan steak bake and sausage roll, as well as its meaty delights.
And today it emerged Cornish pasty giant Ginsters is rivalling Greggs by bringing out its own vegan sausage roll.
