In 2009 Graham signed the contract with Young Money Entertainment and soon after that he went on a America's Most Wanted Tour with many famous rappers. The hit song Best I Ever Had was nominated for Grammy in Best Rap Song and Best Rap Solo Performance. After the release of So Far Gone Drake found himself in the higher league: he worked jointly with Jay-Z, Kanye West, Timbaland and other famous performers. Later the EP So Far Gone appeared, including several songs from the mixtape, such as Best I Ever Had and Successful. That record turned out to be successful and really called-for, so it went to the radio pretty soon. Thereby, So Far Gone received more than two thousands downloads in the first two hours of release. Graham managed to get a reputation of a very talented singer in a short period of time, since his first works were issued. In 2009 Drake released his third official mixtape titled So Far Gone. The musicians recorded several songs, including Ransom, I Want This Forever and remix for Drake’s composition Brand New. The young singer was noticed in no time, and later he collaborated with the famous rapper Lil' Wayne. In 2007 Drake was featured on BET channel with his single Replacement Girl. Everybody could check Drake’s creativity on his official myspace page, and in a year he issued the second work titled Comeback Season. When Drake was five years old, his parents divorced, and he was raised by his mother, however Aubrey spent almost every summer with his father in Memphis.ĭrake’s musical career started in 2006, when he released the first mixtape Room for Improvement. His father played drums with a famous singer and pianist Jerry Lee Lewis, that is why Aubrey has been familiar with music since his very childhood. Lastly DJ Punish melds Baltimore club breaks with techno sounds on his mix which breaks out into a cool half-step beat on the chorus.Canadian actor and musician Drake (full name Aubrey Drake Graham) was born in 1986 in Toronto.
Highly regarded and only 18 yrs old, Dem Slackers drops yet another essential remix that puts the bass upfront, loud enough to hear every last frequency of the incredible squelch-sounds he generates. He tops it though by switching into a brief sample of the A Milli beat during Wayne's verses. R3hab also brings the fire by throwing sheets of white noise into a huge build up that finally drops into a siren-filled beat.
Rishi Romero adds galloping soca snares and some gliding synths (reminiscent of countryman Afrojack). Mischa Daniels handles the tune and gives it a huge makeover, adding some lethal cymbal hits and huge reverb to Wayne's "ya money" line.
For anyone looking for a more big-room vibe though, the remixes have got you more than covered. Combine that with Wayne's auto-tuned vocals and it's a marriage made in heaven. Irwan's original is pretty huge in its own right - with a similar winding and distorted riff that AVH laid down for Dizzee on "Bonkers". With Wayne giving shouts out to Amsterdam, you can tell this is a Dutch affair, with the cream of Holland's huge dance scene getting a look in here. Even though Weezy is currently still a jailbird this collaboration hits the shelves packed with top mixes from a variety of producers. Review: A real coup for Dutch electro DJ Irwan, who has managed to snag possibly the biggest rapper alive on the planet on this extensive single.
