Drake hits the jackpot!

Talk about a good career move, check out the record deal Drake just signed!

Twenty-two-year-old biracial Canadian actor-rapper Drake has just negotiated a monster of a record deal, giving him total control over the music he'll record for Lil Wayne's Young Money label. "They'll say this is the worst deal in music history as far as the label goes," he tells Rolling Stone. "Probably one of the best deals for me at the moment."
Drake (born Aubrey Drake Graham) got his start on Degrassi: The Next Generation playing a paraplegic teen for seven seasons.

When he decided to break into rap, he first reached out to mixtape DJ Smallz, who helped him put out his first project Room for Improvement. A year later, he released a second mixtape that featured a major coup for an unknown: Weezy himself. Wayne took Drake under his wing, and POW! he's a STAR!
