Today we are going to talk about a young fella that goes by the name of “Drake”.  His real name is, Aubrey “Drake” Graham and he was born on October 24, 1986.  Now I know a lot of you out there know exactly who I’m talking about without me even going into detail. Lets be real guys, I know that I am not the only one that watched his TV show? He is well known for playing the role as “Jimmy Brooks” in the popular Canadian show, Degrassi. The character he plays is physically disabled and is faced with not only life’s many challenges, but obstacles that a disabled person has to face and a daily basis. His struggles in the show are so real and very moving. Go ahead…..ask me how I know all of this?I’m not going to lie to you, I was one of Degrassi’s devoted fans and from the moment I saw “Drake” on that show….I knew that he was a special guy and it was only a matter of time before the other talents he had hidden inside of him came to light. Can I get a “amen”? Drake is currently working on his rapping career and has worked with several artist in the music industry….such as, Trey Songz, Lil Wayne. He is currently signed to a couple of well known record labels which are: Cash Money and Universal Motown Records . He has an all-star compilation album that you HAVE TO pick up A/S/A/P.

This dude is off the rictor scale and everyone knows it! Man….. knew that he was special, but who would of thought he would be taking the country by storm like he is today.  You should really keep your eye out for this young artist! I mean, he is so so talented and he is bringing the hip-hop game up to where it needs to be and at only 23 years old he has a lot more wonderful music to offers us.  You can get more info on, Drake by checking out his Myspace page which includes his latest songs and info and on upcoming tour dates.
