BoxingWave I don’t care what you say, a three story house with everything you wanted and a tv show on the biggest tv studio ever (Nickelodeon) is not the bottom
This is when degrassi already was a hit show. He didn’t start in this crib. Why would the tv show show his house when nobody knows who this is.. drake didn’t start from this house.
This is what fuels me, this is success, looking at his collection and kanye west cd's he didn't even know he would be at that level, bro this is surreal, this is pure motivation.
It's crazy how people don't spread positivity instead of negative comments. If you hate drake or my comment, you shouldn't comment back and waste your time. I commented back because I care...

I think everyone that comes from poverty before blowing up in any field are humble is normal is his ego everyone has an ego obviously if you blow up you’re Ego grows is normal for any Human Being
Definitely didn’t have it rough. Dude had his own little chill spot in the basement and a fridge stocked with food. You know you have it rough when there’s 5 people sharing a 2 bedroom apartment and you’ve never had your own room a day in your life. That’s having it rough.
Bunch of haters 😂 usually the ppl that hate on others success are miserable inside because they don’t have the heart to pursue their dreams. Drake might have been middle class but “the bottom” is a state of mind. He made his dreams come true & now he’s top artist of his generation. What y’all doin?!? Lol quit hating
@@Choiboi90 why should he? He right. Y'all ain't where he at. Y'all depressed behind a screen afraid to approach and make ya dreams happen. Y'all ain't shit like the rest of us.
Everyone knows the "bottom" is not a state of mind its the low class for people with low incomes thats what its always meant and people simply pointed out drake started with a middle class income in a pretty wealthy family because he lied about "starting from the bottom" there are a lot of people that try to follow their dreams but constantly fail and a lot of people that have their dreams come true that still don't agree with lies you know damn well that's how it is stop pretending to be a dumbass just to defend your favorite rapper its pathetic and annoying
"Some that I problably never use" Amazing. Drake isnt trying to say that he started from the projects and had to steal for a living. He just sayin that he started being nobody, his music was even criticized by his girlfriend and everybody told him to quit that shit. That was the bottom for him and i totally respect and understand it. Great job
me watching this at 17 gives me hope so much inspiration to make this so called journey worth it one day I’ll come back to this video to see my development
I remember watching this in 2005 when it first aired (yes I was a fan of Degrassi) and thinking "wow, I hope he makes it". I really think this is why Wayne was quick to sign him. You don't have to be a drug dealer from South Central to put out raw talent that people can relate to.
Who to cares where he came from? It's a problem he didn't grow up poor and didn't have to sell drugs? The kid had a crazy passion for music and that's why he's at where he is
+Charles Neal what lifestyle? dude never said anything about selling drugs, matter fact the same acura he drove in the video he said his moms lone him to shoot degrassi in his raps, dumbass
So is Eminem lol. He is bi-racial so is j.cole, and everybody knows how talented j. Cole is. Drake got successful with his own work ethic and determination to be what he wanted to be as a music artist and he did it. Stay weird watching drake’s video when u clearly hating.
"4000 feet just isn't as spacious/ You loved me back in the basement, guess it is what we make it" he'll always be that humble, kind, thoughtful, introspective kid from toronto. this is aubrey graham
He is SO extremely humble and charming! Not to mention how dedicated, sincere, modest, AND talented which are more the reasons why he's my favorite rapper 😍
Steven Porras drake is far from nerdy..... Drake gets more money and pussy than youll ever get in your entire lifetime! In 2004 he had already outdone u on that tip lol
When he did Degrassi it wasn't as much as when he started rapping and making music his life is way better doing music not everyone has the same struggles in life everyone's different
@CoolJamz887 he was living in the same house and neighborhood before he did the TV show kid. Looks like a middle class neighborhood in Canada. Don't look like he was struggling to me
Sweat Music no but dnt act like you came from it and actually had to get it up to get money for studio time...theres no shame in being a rich kid who can rap...just be honest about it
Thats every music artist in the industry. They’re ALL actors most of them have little to no talent at all. Some of them like T-Pain or Justin Beiber can actually sing without autotune or any form of voice manipulation but 99% of the industry has no talent which is why you rarely see them performing outside of a studio. At least Justin Beiber has put on multiple appearances with no producers to show his fans he actually has talent and T-Pain did the famous interview where he sung without autotune and it was incredible.
A great part of musicianship is entertainment. It organizes how he narrates. If he was hard he may have a slower style with the boom- bap power hit, like JR Writer. If he was goofy he would emphasize his high voice and do a lot of rhymes on reminding people his nerdiness. He built his flow as pretty much a Swisha House graduate. He plays the part well and put on the map a great genre of hiphop that never got the shine it deserved. If anything he allowed the South to rise up again and a lot of artist that should be legends or have a big name in the game finally do. People like Mike Dean did so much for the music and Drakes rise and collabs spotlighted that influence. Cant really hate on that. Maybe you dont have to like him but I like how he got South on the map
Yall cant be serious lmao the little "flow" he did in the video was weak asf 😂 .. he definitely found him some ghostwriters later on 🤷🏾♂️ .. that uncle phil bar was trash asf ahahaha
This never gets old. This was the Drake I knew and grew up with, this time in life was just unbelievable and still miss it, most people didn't even realize he was making music and I was bumping it and now he's turned into the greatest of all time
y’all are weirdos lmao, y’all acting because he lived comfortably that magically made him make it to where he is now, some of y’all commenting here are middle class and still ain’t shit lol
no it because he literally has a song called "Started from the bottom" if this is the bottom then idk wtf some of us doing lmaoo, Drake sure as shit aint started from the bottom
Aaron This is after he had been on Degrassi for a while, so I’m sure he was bringing in paper at this point. Now, he’s at the top of the rap game, so you tell me.

Zac W. I think he meant its pretentious to get a mercedes as someones first car
Zac W. He wasn't pretentious though he said if you got the money than get it
"something I'll probably never use" little did he know😂😂😂😂 he probably had Marvin's room done during that time
Nigga prolly had the entire nwts on there
This is why the ghostwriting jokes are stupid to me.
Yall cant be serious lmao the little "flow" he did in the video was weak asf 😂 .. he definitely found him some ghostwriters later on 🤷🏾♂️ .. that uncle phil bar was trash asf ahahaha
@@richieave55 it was kinda trash, but he looks like a teen there. What do you really expect?
@@wabdih man me and Drake is the same age .. and I know a lot of niggas that was really spitting at 17 yrs old ..
Shows that his rap is an “act”
Drake dad wasn’t in his life much as a kid but he still loves his dad.
The Story of Adidon brought me here...
Korey Paul why tho? You miss the old drake? 😆😆😆
If you’re reading this...he’s dead.
Nah
I can only imagine how nostalgic this video must be for Drake he sure came back a lot to this
This is clearly NOT before Degrassi.
This is his bottom, tsx, whole basement, loving family. Yea ok
This never gets old. This was the Drake I knew and grew up with, this time in life was just unbelievable and still miss it, most people didn't even realize he was making music and I was bumping it and now he's turned into the greatest of all time
y’all are weirdos lmao, y’all acting because he lived comfortably that magically made him make it to where he is now, some of y’all commenting here are middle class and still ain’t shit lol
Marvelous David alie
Marvelous David u lame asf but look where we are
no it because he literally has a song called "Started from the bottom" if this is the bottom then idk wtf some of us doing lmaoo, Drake sure as shit aint started from the bottom
Aaron This is after he had been on Degrassi for a while, so I’m sure he was bringing in paper at this point. Now, he’s at the top of the rap game, so you tell me.
I'm very proud of this man, live long and prosper, Drake.
Must have been tough growing up under these circumstances
That was back in the day, Acura days
He went from bumping kanye to dissin him
Respects and love to his grandma. Team Kendrick tho
This dude went from an acura to a boeing 777 , stay blessed king 👑 🙏🏾
Started from the bottom my ass man that's the top for me
If you let Elizabeth fucking PICKLE tell you what to do then you truly are at the bottom
+elisabeth pickle you do realize I was joking right? I know your real last name isn't actually fucking pickle
+elisabeth pickle I was literally making a joke I know this shit username that I created in like 2011 is corny lol
both of you are corny
you realize i was joking right
Those books he has with his lyrics probably has some fire shit in it worth millions each one
But people will still say he doesn't write his own shit...
I just come back to listen for the "accent" he suddenly has
If youre reading this
he made it :))
lol
+kaitlyn leialoha This would be clever if you wrote this ten years ago or whenever this was shot, not 3 months ago...
Kaitlyn Leialoha how old are you 13 lmao
Lol I'm reading this because hes done
bitchhe been made it 😂😂 born wealthy
This made me happy. He seems like such a genuine guy
I remember watching this as a kid along with all the other behind the scenes of the actors lives. It is crazy how he made it happen. From his basement to the top, he did start from the bottom technically, of his grandmas basement 😆
Ghost writer ma ass he had bars even back then LOL
Danny Fransico facts that’s what i’m sayin
He wrote fire back when he made comeback season
He steals lyrics now.the guys a goofy. He fell off but made a lot.of money falling
He doesn't steal lyrics Fuckboy.. he's the best Rapper on Earth. Stop Hating.
He's gonna become a great artist when he grows up. I see something in him
"Started in the middle class now we're here"
To think this guy is still making music in 2023 and is still good...swear this guy will go down as a LEGEND in the music industry...🐐🐐🐐
Ultimately, he will go down as a fraud.
Aubrey Graham is the greatest actor of all time. His greatest role was playing a rapper named Drake
What a stupid sentence
He looks like a talented kid, wouldn't be surprised if he makes a hit album one day...
This comment section is FILLED with “started from the bottom” Jokes 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
