Before becoming the third hottest MC in the game, Drake was an unknown rapper from Toronto Memphis. Looking for his big break, in 2007 he called Angela Yee‘s “Don’t Quit Your Day Job” segment on Shade 45. In hindsight, the audio is funny as it is surreal.

I understand that you will not agree. Even if I see the innovations that are in this piece, almost as if they wanted to create something extraordinary, a work of art, overall I am not completely convinced. I feel a bit "old school" air, almost heavy at times, although the truly remarkable thing is the mixing of the voices and how they feel, truly exceptional.
