Toronto’s own Drake, otherwise known (I’m sure to close friends and family) as Aubrey Graham, who is nominated for ‘best rap song’ and ‘best rap solo performance’ for his hit single ‘Best I Ever Had’. The nominations were announced Wednesday night in Los Angeles at the Nokia theatre, and were hosted by LL Cool J and Nicki Minaj.
LL Cool asked Drake who was in attendance, how he felt.
“I have to say, you know, it's definitely an honour. I haven't even put out my first album,” he said. “Being a kid from Toronto, I'm just proud, man. I know my mom's at home, buggin' out. I'm just glad to be here.”The 23 year old is definitely making moves, and leaving his mark in the music industry.
