Drake’s struggle as an up and coming rapper was “scraping” together 5K. He trying too hard?

Lol. What time period was this?

The industry was all over him from the jump. I think he had more access to $ making opportunists than he’s being honest about.

I talked to Jason Salvador from Lupe’s team back in late 07 when I was trying to put some local peeps on and he told me Drake had next. And he had a co-sign from Dream Hampton or one of those other industry insider types. I might be mixing Dream up with another woman…

This was before So Far Gone... Maybe it was off the hype of Comeback Season which was well received but certainly not a pivotal tape at the time.

The man was saying that he was acting like he was ballin when in reality he only scraped together 5k. That’s like a longshoreman renting a rolls royce and acting like a rap star.

He's tryna change the subject because all the Aubrey stans realize how dumb that post was :mjlol:

He was a rich child actor from the suburbs. No mud. No trenches. Lol

Drake was making like 60k a year on Degrassi taking care of his mother who was on disability, sure he wasn't out here starving and his ribs touching but no where near the life of luxury you haters want him to be from.

Faked it until he made it and it worked

I can understand where he's coming from. Life was hard for him when he was temporarily paralyzed and had to get that wheelchair :yeshrug:
