Alot of ppl don't know but he has played in several movies and tv shows..He's done 8 episode on the show "Degrassi". And has also featured on "Charlie Barlett", "Mookie's Law", "Blue Murder", "Soul Food", "Conviction", "Best Friend's Date", "Instant Star", "The Border", "Being Erica", "Sophie", and "Beyond The Break"..All for atleast one episode..Now I've never really seen or heard any of these shows..But whateva!
In 2009, at the BET Awards Drake was nominated for Lyricist of the Year, Track of the Year(won), Rookie of the Year (won), MVP of the year, and Hustler of the Year. He did all this without even have a damn album out..That's Crazy! Cause a lot of artist that are in the game today don't even get nominated for these categories. He's also been nominated for several other awards and numerous award shows such as, MOBO Awards(2009), MTV Music Awards(2009), Soul Train Awards(2009), Grammy Awards(2010), And the Juno Awards(2010). He also received Best new Artist and Rap Recording of the Year at the Juno Awards.
I respect the kid a lot and tilt my head to his grind. But sometimes I really think he's over rated. That's just me...

Now Drake was a totally different person about five or six years ago..I always thought he was a funny looking character..But even back in '07 when he dropped his mixtape "Room For Improvement" that nobody remembers.

Download "Comeback Season" here

Everything else after that I didn't really like cause his whole style has changed. I guess money would make you do that. But he's still a good artist, creative with a lot of potential.
Download "Comeback Season" hereHis next mixtape was called "So Far Gone", which was pretty much like an album. He even had a hit single playing on the radio "Best I Ever Had".
This video shows how much the kid has changed. And how far he has come. But I'm no fan as of right now. He gotta go back to the way he sounded when he was young and hungry. He sounds like Lil' Wayne sometimes. Or you can hear him and tell he's around Wayne.
Drake's first album "Thank Me Later" drops this summer...STAY TUNED!!
