These Drake quotes will motivate you to work towards your dreams.

Aubrey Drake Graham, known to the rest of the world simply as ‘Drake,’ is a multi-Grammy-award-winning rapper, actor, singer, songwriter, and entrepreneur.

He is best known for some of his biggest hits like “Best I Ever Had,” “Successful,” “Over,” and “Find Your Love.”

Before making it big, he was first seen on the teen drama television series Degrassi: The Next Generation.

Despite personal challenges, Drake’s career has constantly been pushing forward.

In fact, he is rarely out of the spotlight.

From his humble beginnings of trying to get into the world of hip-hop, signing Lil Wayne‘s music label, to being the biggest winner at the Billboard Music Awards in 2017, it seems that there’s no stopping Drake.

In late June 2018, he released his fifth studio album, Scorpion, which broke records and experienced unprecedented success. 

It became the first album to surpass 1 billion streams in a single week and was only the fourth album ever to have seven top 10 Hot 100 hits simultaneously.

The album has 25 tracks and a runtime that reaches almost 90 minutes.

Some top tracks from the album include “Nonstop,” “Emotionless,” “In My Feelings,” and “Don’t Matter To Me.”

He released his sixth album, Certified Lover Boy, in 2021. The album achieved nine top 10 hits on the Hot 100, with its lead single “Way 2 Sexy” reaching number one.

In 2022, Drake released his seventh studio album, Honestly, Nevermind, and the collaborative album, Her Loss, with 21 Savage.

Her Loss features a sole guest appearance from Travis Scott and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200.
