“Here’s a rundown of local artists, many of them part of NOW’s showcase Friday (March 21), who should be top of mind for all hiphop fans.”
Drake was named as one of the “Next Shit” in NOW Magazine. And I Quote:
“DRAKE www.myspace.com/thisisdrake
The first unsigned Canadian artist to have a video debut on BET’s 106 & Park, Drake had a bona fide hit alongisde Trey Songz in Replacement Girl. He’s also acted on Degrassi High, rhymed from Toronto to Los Angeles and, in-between, ghostwrote for Dr. Dre*. He’s not a hiphop businessman; he’s a business, man.
*information not confirmed. Check out for the next update with an audio interview stating the ghostwriting situation.
