Before Drake was scooped up by Lil’ Wayne and his Young Money camp, before Drake dropped his world renouned So Far Gone mixtape and before Drake performed at this year’s BET Awards, Drake was considered a local actor turned rapper.  Still, Drake had many-a-gem tracks that clearly were way different from “Best I Ever Had” or “Every Girl in the World”.

I was going through my gazillion CDs and I found this Rare Find unreleased CD autographed and hand delivered, when Drake first broke out in the music scene (circa 2005).  Some of my favorite tracks are on here and I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I prefer Drake here, pre-Weezy.  Agree or disagree?
