The highest selling rapper of the last 10 years (by a long-shot), Drake is a commercial juggernaut within Hip Hop, even while transcending the genre’s traditions. Since the release of his 2009 mixtape ‘So Far Gone,’ which earned him a deal with Lil Wayne’s Young Money imprint, Drizzy has amassed an astonishing amount of album sales, hit singles, platinum plaques, awards and streams (over 50 billion, to be precise). Through his combination of melody, charisma, vulnerability, witty lyricism and late-night ambience, the 6 God has helped showcase Hip Hop’s softer side while turning his hometown of Toronto into a musical hotbed. He’s fought off a few foes along the way, too.
