About Drake

Aubrey Drake Graham, better known as Drake, is a multifaceted Canadian talent excelling as a singer, rapper, and actor. Born on October 24, 1986, in Toronto, Canada, Drake initially gained public attention with his acting role as Jimmy Brooks on the teen drama series “Degrassi: The Next Generation.” However, it was his foray into music that catapulted him into international stardom.

Drake burst onto the music scene with his mixtape “So Far Gone” in 2009, which spawned the hit single “Best I Ever Had” and peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100. His subsequent signing with Lil Wayne’s Young Money Entertainment paved the way for his debut album “Thank Me Later” in 2010. Drake’s musical career has only flourished from there, with albums such as “Take Care” (2011), “Nothing Was the Same” (2013), and “Views” (2016) receiving widespread acclaim.

His ability to meld hip-hop and R&B with emotional lyrics and catchy hooks has garnered him a plethora of awards, including three Grammy Awards. Drake’s influence extends beyond music; he’s also ventured into acting, with roles in “Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues” (2013) and “Ice Age: Continental Drift” (2012), and business, with his own record label OVO Sound and the clothing line October’s Very Own.

With over 150 million records sold worldwide, Drake is one of the best-selling music artists of all time. His humility and gratitude towards his career trajectory, coupled with a loyal fan base known as “The 6ix” – a nod to Toronto’s area code 416 – Drake continues to reign supreme on the charts while constantly evolving as an artist.
