Fake Drake is turning into more than just a fleeting viral moment. Drake‘s doppelgänger (who goes by the name Izzy) has been running amok in Miami for the last few months, and it’s reached the point where he’s actually getting paid to make appearances.
On Monday (May 9), DJ Akademiks shared a clip on Instagram showing Fake Drake performing in front of a small crowd. The lookalike had people on the makeshift stage with him as he did his best rendition of Drake’s “Laugh Now Cry Later” (with a backing track, of course). However, it’s his alleged performance fee that fans are losing their minds over.
The video’s caption read, “$5K a show @izzyydrake.” There’s no confirmation on that figure, but if it’s anywhere close to that amount, then the doppelgänger business might be the next big lucrative thing.
Fake Drake has been staying in character since gaining viral fame last October and is now claiming the real Drake is copying his style, including the Certified Lover Boy heart shaved in his hair.
Fake Drake Claims The Real Drake Copied His Style
“I’ve had the heart for like a year and a half,” he said during a recent appearance on The Fan Bus. “I have the heart because, you know, if you do things with your heart, it’ll come back.”
He added, “I seen Drake rocking with this jacket, it was this black furry jacket, and I had that jacket, like, two and a half years ago. I’m not even kidding.”
Drake is the fake Drake. Is this the fake fake Drake? How much does the OG fake Drake (Drake) get to perform those wack ass songs that aren’t his either? It’s like the gay Tupac. Tupac was already the gay Tupac. Weirdos.
You gay get the fukk outta here your saucy Santana listening ass
Yeah. You spell fuck wrong and don’t punctuate. Probably too busy blowing someone. LOL.
Are you f****** kidding me Tupac wasn’t gay n**** he had more b****** than you could ever think of want you watching documentaries and something about people that hung out with Tupac before you speak about a legend like that.
He doesn’t have any originality so he resorts to stealing from the OG.
Stop trolling
Both Real and Fake Drake have something in common ? Yep they don’t write their own lyrics !
