Drake House & Real Estate:
Though Drake was born in Canada, he has called Hidden Hills, California home since 2012 when Drake bought a palatial mansion from the former owner of Los Angeles’ Saddle Ranch Bar for $7.7 million in cash. Nicknamed the YOLO Estate, the property includes many residences including a 12,000 square-foot main house and a 2,000 square foot party house.
The estate includes equestrian stables, 25-person movie theater, a full-sized basketball court, sand volleyball court and one of the largest privately-owned pools in Southern California. Drake lagoon-like pool, which loops around the exterior of the house, features with many waterfalls, a swim-up bar an 80-foot water slide and Playboy-mansion style grotto.
In a Rolling Stone interview Drake told that he wanted this mansion for years after Googling “craziest residential swimming pools” and seeing this as one of the results.
Drake used a photo of the pool as the background image on his computer for years as a source of motivation. The former owner listed the house in 2009 for $27 million. By 2012 the former owner was having a cash crunch so Drake bought it for $7.7 million.
In 2015 Drake extended his property by buying the neighboring 1.6 acre estate for $2.8 million. In 2018, Drake extended the property again when he spent around $5 million to buy yet another neighboring house.
Drale private estate now includes 6.7-acres of contiguous property at the end of a cul-de-sac that represent $15 million in real estate acquisition costs alone.
In 2016 Drake spent $7 million to buy a plot of land in suburban Toronto where he intends to build a 35,000 square foot chateau-style mansion. Drake also owns a condo in downtown Toronto.
Drake has at least $25 million worth of real estate. Drake real estate assets (especially the Hidden Hills compound) are likely worth much more when his improvements are included.
It’s possible that the Hidden Hills compound now would give him $20-30 million on its own if he were to dispoff it off.
Drake Private Jet:
In May 2019 Drake released a video on Instagram that showed his newly-acquired Boeing 767 private jet which he has named (and painted) “Air Drake”. As per video, Drake is proud to own the jet free and clear, proclaiming that it’s all his with “no rental, no timeshare, no co-owners.” A similar model and quality private jet would be worth $75 – $100 million.
Drake Businesses:
Drake has endorsed many major brands including most notably, Sprite, Burger King, Whataburger, Nike and Apple in past many years. Drake signed a $19 million exclusivity deal when Apple Music launched. This deal allowed Apple to be the exclusive initial home of all of Drake’s future solo releases.
In 2012 Drake founded his own record label, OVO Sound, which is distributed by Warner Bros. Records. Apart from Drake, OVO Sound produces music for artists such as PartyNextDoor, Majid Jordan, Kash Doll and producers such as Boi-1da, Future the Prince, Mike Zombie etc.

Drake’s first headline tour was 2010’s “Away From Home Tour”. He embarked on 5 additional headlining tours through 2019. He has also co-headlined four tours including his 2018 tour with the rap group Migos.
His 2016 “Summer Sixteen Tour” was the highest-grossing hip-hop tour of all time up to that point with a gross of $84.3 million off 54 shows. This is an average earnings of $1.56 million per concert. His Migos co-headlining tour broke that record in 2018 with $80 million in earnings over 43 dates. This is an average gross of $1.86 million per concert.
Every summer Drake puts on a festival in Toronto called “OVO Fest” that sells out instantly.

Aubrey Drake Graham on October 24, 1986 in Toronto, Canada. Drake’s father Dennis worked as a drummer playing with musicians like Jerry Lee Lewis during his career. Drake’s mother Sandra, aka Sandi, worked as an English teacher and florist.
Drake attended a Jewish day school and had a formal Bar Mitzvah celebration. Sandi and Dennis divorced when Aubrey was five. His father subsequently moved to Memphis where he ultimately ended up being arrested and incarcerated for several years on drug charges.
Aubrey was with his mother in Toronto though he would visit his father in Memphis every summer (when his father was not incarcerated).
Drake would later describe Dennis as being absent during his childhood, claims Dennis has vehemently denied and asserted were embellished to sell records.
From sixth grade on, Drake and his mom lived in the bottom half of a two story town home in an affluent suburb called Forest Hill. His mother lived on the street-level floor, Drake lived in the basement. They were not rich, in fact money was very tight.
While attending Forest Hill Collegiate Institute, Drake found an affinity for acting and singing. He later attended Vaughan Road Academy where he was bullied for his bi-racial and religious background. He dropped out for a time, but did eventually graduate in 2012.
Degrassi
When Drake was 15, a childhood friend’s father – an acting agent – helped him land a role on the long-running Canadian teen drama television show “Degrassi: The Next Generation”.
On the show Drake played Jimmy Brooks, a basketball star who became disabled after being shot by a classmate. Drake was a cast member for seasons 1 through 7, with guest appearances in 2008.
Drake’s mother became ill and could not work when Drake was featuring in Degrassi,. His Degrassi paychecks were their only income for many years. At the time Drake was earning $50,000 per year in salary from the show. That’s roughly $2000 per month after taxes.
He would later describe this time period as follows: “My mother was very sick. We were very poor, like broke. The only money I had coming in was off of Canadian TV.“

Drake’s height is 6′ 0″ (1.83 m), and their weight is 89 kg(196 lbs). He is 44-34-16 inches tall. Drake has a chest size of 44, a waist size of 34, and a biceps size of 16 inches. His hair is black, and he has brown eyes. His shoe size is 11 (US), and his dress size is unknown (US).
Drake Music Career:
Inspired by rap icons like Jay-Z who earned record deals after becoming successful as independent artists, Drake started releasing his mixtapes in 2006.
In February 2005 Drake released his first mixtape “Room for Improvement” via his website and official MySpace page. He managed to sell more than 6,000 copies directly.
Drake released his second mixtape, “Comeback Season” in 2006.
Drake released the mixtape through his own recently-launched label October’s Very Own (aka OVO Records). This mixtape featured what became a hit underground single called “Replacement Girl”. The music video for the song was the first video from an unsigned Canadian rapper to be featured on BET.
One version of the song featured a spliced sample of the song “Man of the Year” by Brisco, Flo Rida and Lil Wayne.
Houston-based producer and Rap-A-Lot Records founder, Jas Prince, heard the single and passed it on to Lil Wayne. Lil Wayne was impressed and called Drake, asking him to fly to Houston to join his Tha Carter III tour.
As the tour progressed, Drake and Wayne wrote and recorded several songs including “Brand New”, “Forever” and “Ransom”.
Young Money Entertainment
Drake had not signed onto Wayne’s record label at this point. Drake released a third mixtape, “So Far Gone”, in 2009. Drake released the mixtape as a free download on his OVO website. The mixtape featured appearances from Lil Wayne, Lloyd, Trey Songz, Omarian and Bun B.
After being downloaded 2000 times in its first hour, the mixtape was eventually certified Gold by the RIAA, peaking at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100. The mixtape was eventually released as an EP which debuted at #6 on the Billboard 200 and won the 2010 Juno Award for Rap Recording of the Year.
Still an independent artist, Drake was now in high demand within the music industry. A bidding war resulted with various labels scrambling to sign him. The desperation has been described as “the biggest bidding war in music history”, though that’s not confirmed.
On June 29, 2009, Drake signed a contract with Lil Wayne’s Young Money Entertainment. The record deal was actually a joint venture between Young Money and its parent company Cash Money, with Universal Music running distribution.

Drake Criticism
Pusha T and Common have been involved with Drake in minor fights. In both songs, the rappers reference Drake, but indirectly. A relative of Drake allegedly injured Chris Brown with a bottle during a fight between the two rappers and Rihanna’s ex in a New York club.
The ESPY Awards were televised on July 16, 2014, and featured Chris Brown and Drake. In the skit, their past conflict is poked fun at, and the matter is resolved.
Meek Mill accused Drake of using ghostwriters (musicians who secretly write lyrics for other artists) in a series of tweets he posted on Twitter. It resulted in a dispute between Drake and Mill. Drake responded to Mill’s confrontation with Mill with “Charged Up,” but he didn’t explicitly refer to the facts in this song.
