What I Really Think About Drake by Degrassi's Raymond Ablack

To think that maybe we could sell millions of albums like Drake is something that makes me smile very deeply. Being on Degrassi and seeing Drake do so well is great, but I wouldn’t say that Degrassi is the reason he is as talented as he is. Aubrey Graham or Drizzy Drake – he is such a point of pride for all of us at Degrassi. We sing his choruses all day at work. It’s something that gets us going.

There is a camaraderie here. We have to be so dedicated and put in so much hard work to do the show that we become like a family. What we are doing is the same thing that Drake did while he was on the show, so he understands the process and is a part of the Degrassi family too.
