Drake Still Wants To Portray President Obama


Drake has standards–especially when it comes to taking on a new acting gig. He began his career as an actor, and he wants to remind people that he can still do it. But, unfortunately, since he’s become known for being such a great rapper, the acting roles he’s being offered have been stereotypical (ie. basketball players and rappers). Yawn and double yawn.
Drake, however, has a bigger vision for the roles he would like to take on. And playing the current president of the United States is one of them.
“I hope somebody makes a movie about Obama’s life soon because I could play him… That’s the goal. I watch all the addresses. Any time I see him on TV, I don’t change the channel. I definitely pay attention and listen to the inflections of his voice. If you ask anyone who knows me, I’m pretty good at impressions.”
“I’ve been reading scripts for awhile. I want to do something great. I want to do something for my culture: the younger people who are still in tune with everything going on. I’m actually writing with my friends right now.”
Could Drake really pull that off?
He went from Wheel Chair Jimmy on Degrassi to becoming one of the hottest rappers in the game, so anything’s possible.
