Still alive
My name is Aubrey Drake Graham, also known as the best artist of all time. I was born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on October 24, 1986. Many call me Drake, but you will hear some refer to me as Aubi, Champagne papi, or Drizzy Drake. I have impacted many with my music and strive to continue my legacy until I retire.
While working as an actor for the show Degrassi:The Next Generation in 2001, I began writing bars and informal raps. Then, in 2006, I released my first mixtape Room for Improvement. Then, I didn't write again until 2009 where I made the mixtape "So Far Gone." That is where I got my first breakout single "Best I Ever Had." This was just the beginning.
After I had my breakout, I signed a deal with Lil Wayne's Young Money Entertainment in June 2009. From there in 2010 I dropped my debut studio album "Thank Me Later." A year later in 2011, I dropped "Take Care" where I won a Grammy-Award. This along with albums such as Views(2016) and Scorpion(2018) is why I set massive stereaming and chart records. All of this ultimately is what ultimately led me to the top of the hip-hop, R&B world. Aside from all this, in 2008, I also founded October's Very Own(OVO) with two others.This is a sound record label as well as a clothing line.
As of May 2026, I broke the tie between Micheal Jackson and I for most number one hits in Billboard Hot 100. Along with this, I hold multiple streaming records. Not too long ago, in 2024, I had a public rivalry with Kendrick Lamar where we released music and business ventures. Some will say I won the rivalry, others might disagree. In this past year, I dropped three albums in May which ultimately allowed me to achieve historic milestones. Then, middle of September 2026, I released FOMO, a short film that consisted of nine new songs as well as me announcing a world tour to come in 2027.
