Far from Over: The Music and Life of Drake
Spotlighting one of today’s most talked about and successful musicians, this unauthorized biography showcases the Grammy-winning talent of hip-hop artist Aubrey Graham, aka Drake. The account reveals the entertainer as a triple a rapper, a singer, and an actor whose journey to fame has been nothing short of atypical. From his debut going double platinum and selling millions of copies in the United States alone to topping the Billboard 200 charts and spawning numerous hits, this chronicle reviews Drake’s numerous achievements, including the record-breaking digital popularity of his sophomore release. The celebrity’s acting career also gets its due, notably his nine seasons starring in The Next Generation , one of the most consistently watched drama series for teens in North America. In Far from Over , award-winning writer and hip hop expert Dalton Higgins examines the life of Aubrey Drake Graham. Conducting a journey through the life of a 25-year-old wonder, the book travels from Drake’s childhood in Toronto to his emergence as an unlikely global pop culture hero ― breaking all of the music industry and societal clichés in the process ― illustrating what makes this modern-day Renaissance man tick. I do think this should be Far from Over, with from lc, because it’s a preposition. But I won’t die on this hill!

First of all thank to goodreads for letting me win this book for free so i can review it!
The biography of Drake, a canadian rapper, is not a bad book but not a really good one either. The real fan of Drake will know must of all that this book include and the one who are not really fan of him just doest want to read it anyway... The book is well done with a bunch of pictures black and white or in color, but it dont have a lot more to it. I a not a big fan of biography and it certainly not this book that withmake me become one. I recommened it if your are a really really crazy fan of Drake and that you just want to have eferything about him at hand.
