Sooo, Aubrey ?Drake?Graham is the man
right now, like for real for real. He was
born October 24, exactly one month after
my birthday woot woot in Toronto
Canada. Also known as ?the 6?, the
reason he calls himself the 6 God
however Kanye West refers to him as
?The Rap God?. I?d rather sip some
champagne with him and just call him
Papi? but whatev?s lol just kidding. He
jumped on the scene in 2001 with his
acting career on Degrassi. However
Drake loves music so he had been
releasing mixtapes but around 2009 he
linked up with YMCMB records and
?Drizzy?s? music career took off. In fact
his first EP had 4 songs to make it to the
top 10 Billboard Hot 100.
?The 6 God? is a platinum selling, multitalented, multi-award winning
entertainer. He?s won a Grammy, a Juno
and 6 BET awards. And he?s nominated
again for the BET 2016 award show. He
acts, sings, writes , produces, and raps. All
of his commercial albums and mixtapes
are certified diamond in Canada. But
that?s not all. Drizzy is definetly a mogul.
He turned his company OVO from a blog
to a BRAND. This includes his record
label, clothing line, and yearly Ovo
festival. We know how much he loves
basketball and in 2013 he became the
global brand ambassador for the Toronto
Raptors. He signed a deal with Jordan,
and the list goes on and on? and on.
Member of the Forbes Five Drake is
listed as one of the top 5 highest paid
artist. Last year alone he made 39.5
million dollars. He even made more
money than the Beat Master Dr. Dre. He?s
getting that Jay-Z & Diddy type of
money? straight boss moves. And he
hasn?t even been in the game as long. In
order to earn that type of dough you
gotta have multiple streams of income.
Don?t ask how he?s doing it just know
he?s getting it done.
