Drake had the perfect take off….


It’s a blessing that Wayne took him under his wing and didn’t stop him from shining like most rappers do when it comes to fame.

Not everyone wants to be a hypeman like Yayo and Spliff Star.


Dude got a Trey Songz feature before his run.


Shyt, he had a DJ Smallz mixtape back when DatPiff was the only site that u can download mixtapes(LiveMixtapes didn’t add the download button until mid 2008).

Nah, man. Folks who were paying attention to music back then could tell you Drake wasn't a plant. He really hit the grind like any other upcoming artist would've back then.

I even remember the initial response to Room for Improvement and Comeback Season being jokes about him being the wheelchair nikka from Degrassi, until word got out that the music was actually solid.

Seeing folks try to invalidate his entire career after taking that L is weird as shyt.

Drake earned it. No one took him serious until the Wayne co-sign and once SFG dropped it was a wrap. I remember it like yesterday.

Man we were on message boards and saw drakes progression this is non sense.

He was running around trying to get on just like the rest of the crowd from 07-10. Room for Improvement Tape. COMEBACK SEASON, So Far Gone put him through the stratosphere

Drake was running around with TIP for a minute also. Back when Grand Hustle had motion he was gathering talent

Mickey Factz had a deal with Honda for an Accord commercial :wow:

Right. I was there too. But this is the twitter generation where no one knows anything past the last refresh.

I remember being on forums defending Comeback Season cuz no one was tryna listen to an actor from Degrassi :russ: And he had already been grinding for a few years by then

If Drake is a plant, so are Wale, Kendrick, J. Cole, Kid Cudi, Big Sean, etc. They all got pushed just as hard by the same blogs. Imagine getting called an industry plant just cuz you got posted on 2DopeBoyz :pachaha:
