Show Name: Who’s on the Aux?
Episode Title: God’s plan or PR plan?
You are listening to Who’s on the Aux podcast with your hosts, Fiona Reznik and Aleena Kashif
In this episode of Who’s on the Aux the Podcast, we discuss Drake, God’s plan or PR plan?
Fiona: Who’s on the Aux? We’re on the Aux. Hello everyone, and welcome back to Who’s on the Aux Podcast, where we talk about some of your favorite music artists and discuss whether they deserve all their hype or if they are complete trash. On the aux today, we have Drake. This episode was requested by one of my friends, Kallitsa.
Aleena: Bro, this song is stuck in my head.
Fiona: Really, what song??
Aleena: You know that song called Practice?
Fiona: Uhhh… who’s it by?
Aleena: Drake, duh. How do you not know it?
Fiona: Drake?? Ewwww
Aleena: What? Do you not like Drake?
Fiona: No, not really, but it was requested, so I decided to make an episode about him.
Aleena: Huh? Wait, why not?
Fiona: I just don’t like his music style I guess.
Aleena: You don’t know what you are talking about, but whatever, I know a little bit about Drake, so I can start telling you about his early life, and I think I can definitely try to change your opinion of him.
Fiona: I don’t know, but you can try.
Aleena: Alright, so now we are gonna start with “The Certified Lover Boy”, also known as Drake!
Fiona: Heerrre we go..
Aleena: Stop, I love Drake.
Fiona: Okay, whatever, even though he’s the guy who writes breakup songs for people he never even dated.
Aleena: Okay, but so does Taylor Swift.
Fiona: Yeah, but Taylor Swift... actually, I don't even know.
Aleena: Yeah, exactly, also, he is like in a bunch of memes, he's really funny, but anyways, back on track…before he became famous, his name was Aubrey Drake Graham. He was born on October 24, 1986. Guess where he was born.
Fiona: Oh yeah, his album cover for one of his albums was the CN Tower because he was born in Canada or something.
Aleena: Yup, Drake.. Or should I say AUBREY, was born in Toronto, Canada.
Fiona: Okayyy, but how did he get into music, and what’s his early life?
Aleena: Drake’s dad, Dennis Graham, used to be a drummer who apparently played with Jerry Lee Lewis, so I guess you could say that Drake was kind of born into music.
Fiona: That’s cool, I wondered if any of that “rock n roll” affected any of Drake’s music.Aleena: I mean, I guess in a way it did, but I feel that it was more of his parents combined that kinda gave him his perspective. Drake had a black dad and a Jewish mom in the Canadian suburbs. I also think what changed him a lot was that Drake’s parents split when he was 5, so it turned into a struggle.
Fiona: Dang, that’s actually kinda sad.. But after all that hardship, how did he get to where he is now???
Aleena: Yeah, so basically, after living with his mom and in the struggle, he built his career from scratch.
Fiona: Wait, so you’re telling me all his sad songs about his struggle were actually real?
Aleena: Yes, bro, that's literally why he made a song called “Started from the bottom”. Some people call it his biography in 10 minutes. Okay, wait, here is his glow-up story. When he was a teenager, he got a role in the movie “The Next Generation,” which helped him make some money and get known. The thing was, though, he didn’t want to be just an actor; he wanted to be a rapper, and that was tough because nobody took him seriously. He started dropping mixtapes on his own. They were called " Room for Improvement" (2006), "Comeback Season" (2007), and "So Far Gone" (2009). That third one finally blew up online, and Lil Wayne saw it…
Fiona: Lil Wayne??? The rapper???
Aleena: Yes! He spotted Drake and invited him to join him, and I’m pretty sure that is when Drake’s career changed.
Fiona: Yeah, that’s big. I don’t think Lil Wayne just chooses anyone.
Aleena: Right? After that, Drake dropped hit after hit — Best I Ever Had, Forever, Find Your Love, Take Care, Started From the Bottom, Hotline Bling, God’s Plan, One Dance, and so many more.
Now he’s one of the best-selling artists in the world — Grammy wins, sold-out tours, basically a music empire.
Fiona: So he really did grind his way up. I’ll admit that’s impressive… but he still makes too many songs about exes.
Aleena: Whatever…
Fiona: I do know one Drake song.
Aleena: Really? Which one?
Fiona: She will. I only know it because of the TikTok trend. It's like the ladies and gentlemen (Sing the song)
Aleena: I can’t believe that's the only song you know.
Fiona: Yeah.
Aleena: But seriously, I love Drake, and you should listen to him more often.
Fiona: Yeah, no.
Aleena: His best song is Practice; it's actually my favorite. Just try listening to that, bro.
Fiona: Yeah, okay.
Aleena: Listen to it, please.
Fiona: I will. I will. Thank you, everyone, for joining us today. We’re your hosts, Fiona Reznik and Aleena Kashif, signing off. Next week on the aux, we have another male artist. His music is known for its lyrical depth. And we might even have a guest on the show. Stay tuned for more episodes!
Aleena: Music credits and connect with us on Social media.
