5/3/2006 - Aubrey as Drake
As you may have noticed news has been a bit slow as of late, we expect this to change once shooting on season 6 and potentially the movie begins. Aubrey Graham (who by the way is confirmed to be in season 6) recently gave an interview concerning his rap career. Excerpts are below and you can read the full article here:
"Name?
Aubrey Drake Graham
Alias?
Drake
Who the F*#K are you?
The New Version of Fresh Prince frequently referred to as Mr. Big Dreams...the only rapper up north that could claim king, but wont because I always let the people decide. A self-proclaimed king is merely a peasant with a big mouth. And do not get it twisted because T.I. is my favorite rapper and he earned that title!
What city (or cities) are you reppin’?
Toronto and Memphis Tennessee
When’s the last time you indulged in sex, drugs, or rock & roll?
I don't do drugs...but I recently indulged in some mediocre intercourse and a Bruce Springsteen CD.
Why haven't you been signed yet?
Because I make music that may cause kids to actually think.
Can a rap artist make it in Canada?
The real question here is can a rap artist FROM Canada make it anywhere?
How is the transition from the small screen to the mic?
It's tough at times because you automatically know people are doubting your talent and before you can impress them or have them appreciate your music, you have to prove to them you're not wack."
Thanks to degrassi freak for reporting on this first.
