- This interview was done over 2 years ago as Drake STRUGGLES to find a good record label! We did this in his [mom's] basement, only a few feet away from his room! (we MAY have taken a little peak inside!)
Enjoy!
NotableInterviews
Drake's mom probably said *No shoes in the house guys* before the interview lol
Ayyy 2Saint funny bc it’s true
This is probably 100% accurate😂😂
😂😂😂
Who tf weares Shoes at home man
Canadians don't usually wear shoes in their houses
Drake needs to reach out to this guy and show him love
Razeen M why
Im sure he has yo
I’m pretty sure he has
Razeen M why
it'd be wholesome yeah
I'm laughing at how they did the interview in their socks lol!!!
Take ur shoes off at the door
his mom real funny about the carpet
KSS5 There's a lot of countries that have not their shoes inside, for example almost every country in europe.
KSS5 But the floor would get shitty if you used shoes inside and it's also uncomfortable. I just go barefooted wearing pajama pants and a T-shirt when at home.
Pece17 I get what everyone is saying, and they're on carpet, but its still just funny to me though lol, like its still an interview, who does that? lolol!
damn this kid really knew how to scout who he should interview. props to the interviewer
lol drake was big locally back then
He was know for degrassi
Nah bro relax
You don't know that. Dude might've been interviewing everybody he could
@@freddycalipari4242yeah there’s actually a small portion of his life that didn’t include fame by now
"She said I'd never be as big as Trey Songz boy was she wrong". So accurate
That line was playing in my head when he mentioned trey songz
That was just negative energy for me to feed on
Now it’s therapeutic blowing money in the galleria
@@w.e.4277 that bar right there 😌💪🏾
he had a plan nd always stuck to his plan .. I love that about him. he sounds like the same drake he is now but better. everything that he's talking about in this interview he achieved. thats very inspiring
I have seen this same interview before Drake was so successful, and now that I'm watching it again I realized that he not only proved all of his haters wrong but he also got to be exactly where he wanted to be...
How can one not respect the foresight? He was decisive, seemingly patient, and is still with 40 and Oliver. Salute
Very inspiring. Big ups Dreezy.
❤️
RUclips recommend this to anyone else?
🤦🏾♂️ Algorithm Doin Overtime
Seriously right
Yep
They not like us
Right
I get chills listening to him saying “October’s own is my label right now with Oliver and Shebib” like he always mentions them and reps OVO so hard it’s crazy how real he is about his past
Real talk.
OVO CREW, NIGGA THOUGHT I TOLD YOU!
OVOXO
TILWEOVERDOSE
XO CREW Til We Overdose xo mediocre aside from The Weeknd
OVO FOREVER
lmao
@@themovolettermanboyz1666 ovoxo failed hard, why you still reppin it
Back when Soundcloud rappers were known as MySpace rappers
Right
Facts
Facts Right
MySpace was huge back in the day. We all had it. 🙂
@@DrAlexisMyou don't look old enough for MySpace
You can tell Drake is very intelligent
delusionalpaul for real. He is educated
It’s impressive he’s a high school drop out
@jeovany for your information he went back to school, graduated and got his high school diploma
The marketing is crazy...
@@vers96 his family rich
Why youtube giving me all these old drake recommendations😂😅
A lot of people hating on drake are idiots. You do realize when he says "started from the bottom" he's mean about building his rapping career from the ground up right. He's just saying that he worked really hard to reach his level of status. But people misinterpret it for financially.
YES IVE BEEN TRYING TO TELL EVERYONE THIS
***** never said he was
ok, but he's not that good, he's not good at all !
isn't it crazy that you have to explain that to people? haha my friends were arguing about that when it came out and I broke it down for them and they acted like I cracked the code, like I discovered fire. Fuck!! Ppl can be fuckin tunnel visioned with hate...
+Moh Khelfane fuck outta here
Drake needs to be interview by this guy again, full circle vibes
Facts
Socks off still too oms 😂😂😂😂
Itscrazy how long OVO has been in place and how long he been working with 40 loyalty over everything now he the best on the game
Watching this in 2020 gives me chills
Imagine me in 2024
i just find it so hilarious that he has laundry in the corner
Drake is extremely well spoken, even before his mainstream success.
What I find priceless, is how visionary Drake was, to not bite on the early offers. To him, Its not even a matter of "if" he is about to change the face of the industry, because he clearly sees that as a fact. Its how he negotiates like a first round draft pick, that is impressive for someone who has only had marginal success in showbiz at this point.
Now he turning the 6 upside down it's a 9 now. His work ethic is so admirable
Funny how this comment aged 😂
@@cowboy_star😂”freaky ass n**** he a 69 god”
You know it's an old interview when Drake is talking about MYSPACE lmao
wow. OVO is really old. Impressed on what he's done.
Well he's started it back in the early great come up seasons 2006 - 2007 & I'm glad he neber went with def jam forreal he was smart AF.. & he came up so quick he knew exactly how to get in and out.. Now he has a full fledge movement behind him and alot of artists on OVO
Only impressed please. Fricken Amazing! 👓
1:55 "I used to wanna be on Roc-A-Fella then I turned into Jay" - summer sixteen, 6God! OVO!, drake wasn't lying
+a000199 preach !!
yuh thats what i was thinkin
+a000199 Quentin Miller
+a000199 lol thats insane that he said that....and it stayed true, lol this guy "shakes head like proud uncle"
White girl knows her shit big up
06:06 - Then she start tellin' me how I'll never be as big as Trey Songz boy was she wrong, that was just negative energy for me to feed off - Drake you proved it.
From Time
Indi5hunnit Now he got bodied by Pusha T😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀.Damn so this was God's plan 👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻
Sreejit Sarkar drake outsold kanye & pusha combined, pusha had to end his tour due to low ticket sales....pusha who??
Drakes voice never changed...
He talks the same but raps with a deeper voice now
this is his normal accent..these days hes jamiacan/british/american..all over the place
@@freddycalipari4242 now the line "im all over the place, I can't sit un one place" In jungle makes sense
His voice sounded more hood/attractive to me here. Now it sounds slightly phoney
@@sr2592 Wtf? Hood where? Lmfao
Drake was like 21 when this interview was done…. Crazy.
RIP TO DRAKE AS WE KNOW 😂
Man you guys hating on him about having money before. You do realize that you have to audition to get a role on degrassi right? He had to be a good actor and work for his money he earned and that's exactly what he's doing now. Why does someone need to starve or have a harsh upbringing just to be acceptable when earning lots of money.
"started from the bottom now im here".. dont claim to be from the bottom if you started half way up the latter..
jibiji123
you even know what "started from da bottom " mean? it doesnt mean the start is living in the hood and sell drugs.
chillerduesi regardless of how he meant it, he should be smart enough to realize how people who are ACTUALLY at the bottom (poverty, drug addiction, etc.) would interpret it.
jibiji123 and he shows that anybody can started at the bottom but ended where he is .famous,welthy and happy.and that motivates very many people as you can see on the commercial performance and views.
chillerduesi no. It pisses people who are in the bottom off. you clearly havent been there yourself
He has a tone to his voice that really fits well melodically into beats. Talent on top of that, makes a recipe for success commercially. Hate on him if you want, but you can't deny his success. And he's successful for a reason.
He's like one of those people that were destined for success from the start.
Yooo is your pfp MJ's eye?
Jose Rivero lol everyone can be destined to be great at what they were meant to be great at and the only thing that can stop you is yourself because you listened to other people and then started to believe them and the cycle continues until you figure out what you choose to do everyone has a choice and If you think not keep asking yourself why and you will find the answer
Elite Beat Yea but Drake is lightning in a bottle when it come to stardom. All the stars aligned for him. His run has been impeccable. There will never be another. He was born to do this shit.
@@villavelli no cap 😂
I admire drake's hard work, this guy paid his dues. Started listening to him when I was 20, I'm 31 now, his music was thru my whole 20's crazy. I hope to cross paths with him and do some work together
Him talking about octobers very own, Oliver, and 40 is crazy knowing where they all are now.
its sick how from this interview to interviews happening right now drake always treated the interviewer with the same respect
Drake did everything he said he was gonna do. .LOOK AT HIM NOW!The people he loved that hurt him.problay cry everyday. And they should. I'm proud of this guys journey almost unreal.BIG UPS DRIZZY DRAKE!!On to the next thing.
From this to 2021 Certified Lover Boy Energy, Mind Blowing.
He nailed that last question too. Dude is going to change the game, along with Wale and J. Cole
100% accurate except for Wale
Today he is the game
Wale Fell Off Dam, Kendrick Took His Spot
Went from the number 1 MySpace artist in Canada to the number 1 artist in the world.
Exactly.
This is pretty amazing footage. Shoes off 😅 love this
you came a long way man you inspire me dude real rap keep doing you Trei
Not to be weird. When Drake no longer walks in this life with us.. this interview will go very big and someone from an industry might take this piece of content for their documentary
Exactly he’ll be beyond legendary. I can see this shown in a documentary style with a filter on it lol
I came from the doc
The stark contrast between this interview and the interview with rap radar is absolutely wild
Discipline, creativity, strong commitment, dedication and love to music, practice is the way to success. Drake is the best Rapper ever !
Underrated comment.
facts
Nice words
"A record deal is like a marriage"
Is really interesting how he talks about music as a product, himself as the marketing guy and the labels as retailers. Props to his skills as a pop star and seller, he knows whats people likes to listen.
Crazy watching this in 2023
This awesome dude, great video man!
Perfect interview, I'm a big Drake fan
Look at the kid now...
Realshit
He still write his raps and for other people he just had a co writer for that project
+White Guy Why don't you get the hell outta here and join Meek's pathetic fan club to kiss his sad ass.
+White Guy you are an idiot... in "the fader" he said he collaborates with people when he needs a spark of ideas or to his creative process... at no point did he admit that he had anyone write entire verses for him
***** what?
such inspiration seeing him in his mansion now. nothing can compare to this his success in this decade.
his mum prolly like
“take your shoes off boys and just let me know if you want any snacks or fruit juice”
It’s amazing to see how far drake has come from here til the biggest artist in the world really inspirational
damn alot can happen in 4 years right ? i still f w drake but .. his rep is being targeted i hope he catches balance
Satisfying how things came full circle
Look at this man now he's been on the top for the past decade
wow its about time you uploaded this onto youtube.
The bible says dont despise small beginnings 💯💯
That's right.
Bless You Father Thank You Lord.
“before he was famous” he was already famous as an actor 💀
Whether ppl like it or not, Drake is one of the most talented rappers in the game right now. It really does take a true PASSIONATE individual who not only studies the music, but understands how to make it in the game in terms of grasping the mainstream market by the tail and make the fans comung back for more
Do you still rock with him today?
Great interview! Great questions!
@Ronan Whittaker 😂 It’s crazy how long Drake has been relevant!
haha, This is awesome! hard work and consistency will certainly pay off. Kudos Drake
So True Hard Work and Consistency Will Pay Off!!!!!!!!
ReachingNOVA more like selling your soul to gain fame and money don’t be that naive
sammex pouland stfu. Seriously just stfu. Don’t agree? Wanna stay asleep, by all means just stfu.
@@JayBird227 ok WOKE👁
@@mkmllrc ok, sheep 🐑
"He a F.A.N, He a F.A.N, He a F.A.N " 😭😭😭
The same record label that extorted Kendrick’s whole career tried to recruit drake first😂😂

Did Drake use his Canadian voice for this interview? 😂🎉😅
started from the bottom now we here, blessings from the 6
+Shehd Abdulhadi send me cash to prove u are here..not just talking prove it..i am in Germany

I Isaiah compared to where he is now that was the bottom
You can tell he has a lot of ambition and potential, and he live it out
