Drake’s infamous dopplegänger has milked his 15 minutes of fame with club appearances, performances and interviews since 2021. While the real Drake hasn’t paid too much attention to the Fake Drake, that changed over the weekend after the enthusiastic imposter showed up at a Houston club and promptly got the boot.
In a video making the rounds on social media, promotor Chris Chizer instructs his security to escort the look-alike out of the building.
“Fake Drake can’t be in Area 29,” he says. “Fake Drake can’t be in here, he’s got to go! So he’s gotta get his ass up outta here.” The clip was eventually posted to Akademiks’ page, which got a “like” from Drake himself who apparently approved of Fake Drake’s removal.
Fake Drake claims he does have Drake’s stamp of approval when it comes to imitating him. Speaking to No Jumper last November, he said a professional Las Vegas gambler who knows Drake told him he doesn’t have a problem with the impersonation.

“He didn’t really give a fuck, you know? That was the whole thing. I’m just being humble, I’m doing my thing. I got kids – I’m doing this shit for my family.”
