SO FAR GONE



Aubrey Drake Graham (going by Drake in his music career) was one of the stars of the Canadian television series Degrassi: The Next Generation. It was a tough job. He had to date a nice girl who tried ecstacy and lost all her friends becoming a goth in the aftermath. He was best friends with the class idiot, who later caused him to be shot and paralyzed (but he sort of learned to walk again). He had to deal with embarassing erections (we've all been there, right?) and failed revenge plans. And then he graduated high school, which is all you can really hope for out of a school where all that happens.

But somewhere in the midst of all this, real life Aubrey started a real life music career (not unlike the one that tv Aubrey started). Being on the show was a serious setback to his musical superstardom and creative process, but now that his character has apparently been scraped out of continuity, he can focus on his music career. Which finally brings me to the point of this post.



Drake, who already released music here and there over the last few years is not currnetly working on an album-quality mixtape called So Far Gone (with the help of October'sVeryOwn). This time around he's working with artists like Lil Wayne, Santogold, Lykke Li, and a host of others. And according to the reviews out of Canada, Drake is bringing his A game.
