Celebrating 10 Years of Drake's 'So Far Gone'

Over 10 years, Drake has made an impact on music that few could dream of. Throughout it all, he somehow maintains loyalty to the music above the accolades.

It's been 10 years since Drake's debut album 'So Far Gone' dropped, and the artist has been on an impressive climb since then. The artist has made his mark with a wide discography, and a handful of impressive features.

Aubrey Graham, aka Drake, has released a total of 5 studio albums, 2 EPs, and 6 mixtapes since the beginning of his career.

Despite all this success, the rapper manages to stay humble in his ways. He gave a big thank you to his mentor and collaborator Lil Wayne, saying;

"A decade ago you took me out of Toronto and gave me the biggest blessing anybody has ever given me …"

Drake has won a total of 105 awards for his music, including 3 Grammy's. With this in mind, it is no surprise that his music has become iconic, with classics such as 'Best I Ever Had' to the more modern masterpieces like 'God's Plan' and his featured verse on 'Sicko Mode.'

Despite all this success, Drake manages to stay loyal to the music over the fame.

In his most recent speech at the 2019 Grammy Awards, Drake commented on the honor by telling the music community:

"If there's people who have regular jobs coming out in the rain and snow, spending their hard earned money to buy tickets for your show -- you don’t need this [Grammy] right here; you already won.”
