Drake: How Much Is The Famous Rapper Worth?

Aubrey Graham, professionally known as Drake, may be known as rap's biggest sweetheart, however, long before his chart-topping music days, the world first fell in love with him on the small screen when he starred in the long-running Canadian teen drama series, "Degrassi: The New Generation," (via IMDb), in which he played the iconic role of Jimmy Brooks from 2001 to 2009.

In addition to his breakout role, Drake's also made appearances in "Charlie Bartlett" opposite Kat Dennings and the late Anton Yelchin, "Sophie," "The Border," and "The Egos."

After his exit from "Degrassi," Drake released his first full-length studio album, "Thank Me Later," in 2010, (via All Music). He then followed up with "Take Care" (2011), "Nothing Was The Same" (2013), "If You're Reading This It's Too Late" (2015), "Views" (2016), and "Scorpion" (2018). The "Best I Ever Had" rapper has also been nominated for 47 Grammys throughout his career, winning Best Rap Song in 2017 and 2019, Best Melodic Rap Performance in 2017, and Best Rap Album in 2013, (via Grammy).

Drake's impressive net worth is higher than you think

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Drake is worth around $180 million, which shouldn't come as a surprise, thanks to his early acting career and successful music career.

The outlet also reports that the Toronto native has sold "more digital singles than any artist in history," and is also the third best-selling artist in Canadian history behind Shania Twain and Celine Dion. Drake's also worked with many notable brands through his career, including Nike, Burger King, and Whataburger. When Apple Music launched, he signed a $19 million contract with them, ensuring that Apple would be home to Drake's music. He also started his own record label in 2012, OVO Sound, which is under Warner Bros, and launched his own whiskey brand called Virginia Black.
