Drake was seven years old when he first saw an Elvis impersonator. “I was enthralled. I think that’s when I decided I wanted to become like Elvis,” he said.

Drake also said, “I would go put on the jumpsuits and dye my hair black. But it wasn’t till one of the first times I got on stage and sang some of my own songs. I figured, ‘Man, this is something I could do. I could pave my own way!'”

He’s Now In A Band
