There is no doubt that Drake has skills as an rapper. Personally I feel that his music is becoming over saturated, every mainstream ( AKA pay to play) radio station is playing his tracks every 5 minutes. Its not Drake`s fault that his marketing team is using guerrilla tactics to succeed, I’m actually impressed at Drake`s honesty in a recent interview with Rolling Stone he admitted that at the end of the day he still is an actor. I’m working on [acting] right now,” he promised. “One of my best friends in this industry is Jamie Foxx…so hopefully we’ll get to do a movie together. And I’m a big Judd Apatow, comedic timing fan. I love all those movies that they do. So, yeah, I really want to get back into acting. It’s definitely something I’m interested in and always will be.”
Earlier this year he was asked about his hip hop fame compared to his fame as an actor, He was quoted as saying:

‘Degrassi’ is bigger than what I’m doing right now, it really is, It’s bigger than any Drake, Cudi, Wale, you know…, Like I was doing mall tours with 15,000 people [attending] where the fire marshall would come and shut the mall down ’cause there was just too many people in there. I was signing autographs for three, four hours, with a half an hour lunch break and then going back for four more hours. I’ve been through that crazy phase.”
At least he keeps it real and admits the end of the day its just all an act.
