Back in time, when Drake was the famous actor of a teen series

Fiery Drake fans, mostly Canadians in this case, rolled up their sleeves to show the place to someone who dared to mock the rapper and the latter’s acting skills.

A Twitter user named @pktheterrible posted a video of Drake writing that "Drake wants to be an actor so much." After that, hundreds of people wrote that @pktheterrible certainly did not see Dregassi and ironically said that "they knew Drake as an actor, before the world recognized him as a rapper".

At the age of 15, Drake wanted to become an actor and a high school friend introduced his father, an acting agent, to Drake. He found Drake in a role in the Canadian teen series Dregassi: The Next Generation (2001).
