Jimmy Brooks was a bad boy from the start.
Drake, the rapper formerly known as Degrassi star Aubrey Graham starred as Jimmy Brooks on the Canadian teen soap when he was 14. But even back when he was in front of the camera doing a scene he knew he would rather be on stage.
Drake revealed ?Back then, I?d spend a full day on set and then go to the studio to make music until 4 or 5 a.m. I?d sleep in my dressing room and then be in front of the cameras again by 9 a.m. Eventually, they realized I was juggling two professions and told me I had to choose." Of course Drake eventually left the hit soap but his two worlds did collide from time to time as Drake occasionally rapped on the show.
