CAMP DRAKE

Aubrey Drake Graham (born October 24, 1986) is a Canadian rapper, singer, and actor. He is credited with popularizing R&B sensibilities in hip-hop music through rap-singing, and journalists have referred to him as one of the greatest rappers of all time. Drake first gained recognition as Jimmy Brooks in the CTV teen drama series Degrassi: The Next Generation (2001–2008) and began his music career by independently releasing the mixtapes Room for Improvement (2006), Comeback Season (2007), and So Far Gone (2009), before signing with Young Money Entertainment.

Drake's debut album, Thank Me Later (2010), debuted atop the Billboard 200 and included his breakthrough hit "Best I Ever Had". He followed it with the albums Take Care (2011) and Nothing Was the Same (2013); the former was included on Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums of All Time" list. His fourth studio album, Views (2016), led the Billboard 200 for 13 weeks and spawned his first Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper as a lead artist, "One Dance", which became the first song to surpass 1 billion streams on Spotify. In 2018, Drake released his fifth studio album, Scorpion, spending 29 weeks atop the Hot 100, with its singles: "God's Plan", "Nice for What" and "In My Feelings". Drake's sixth album, Certified Lover Boy (2021), yielded a then-record 9 simultaenous US top-ten entries. His subsequent albums—Honestly, Nevermind, Her Loss (both 2022), For All the Dogs (2023) and Some Sexy Songs 4 U (2025)—continued his streak atop the Billboard 200.

As an entrepreneur, Drake founded the record label OVO Sound, production company DreamCrew, and the fragrance house Better World.
