Drake, born on October 24, 1986 in Toronto, Ontario, is a Canadian actor and recording artist. He gained initial fame for his role as Jimmy Brooks on the TV series Degrassi: The Next Generation. As a rapper, he goes by the name Drake. In June 2009, he officially signed with Lil Wayne's record label after establishing a close affiliation with it earlier in his career.

Drake comes from a musical background; his father Dennis Graham was a drummer who worked with Jerry Lee Lewis, and he is also related to musicians Larry Graham and Teenie Hodges. His parents divorced when he was young, and he was raised by his mother in Toronto's affluent Forest Hill neighborhood. Despite not graduating high school from Forest Hill Collegiate Institute, Drake discovered acting there and spent summers with his father in Memphis.

With an impressive career spanning both acting and music, Drake has become one of the most successful artists of our time. Known for hits like "Hotline Bling" and "God's Plan," Drake continues to captivate audiences worldwide with his unique blend of rap and R&B influences.

Nothing Was The Same' is the much-anticipated third album from Drake. He's still brooding like before, but also puffing his chest out in equal measure. He's always used his music to send messages to women who've broken his heart, or whom he just couldn't hold tight enough. Now he's got something to lord over them, too. The sound is hot - hazy, often doleful post-soul and low-end-heavy hip-hop, largely moving slowly and with deliberateness. Most of the album is produced by Drake's longtime associate 40, who sticks close to the sound that's become their joint signature. It also features guest spots from Jay Z and detail.
