The artist known simply as Drake has come a long way since he played the role of Jimmy Brooks on the television series Degrassi. Drake is now a hip-hop artist who is capable of filling stadiums and averaging close to $1 million per show that he plays. Outside of the music industry, Drake has served as a “global ambassador” for National Basketball Association team the Toronto Raptors. Drake was also credited for bringing former Tottenham Hotspur forward Jermain Defoe to Major League Soccer side Toronto FC, a move that did do many favors for the player or for the MLS club.
