Drake Gets Signed
Rihanna’s rumored boyfriend, Drake, has just scored big time by getting a record deal with Young Money and Universal Republic. A lot of record labels were trying to sign him but he ended up going with Lil Wayne’s label for a cool $3 million. The rapper’s debut album ‘Thank Me Later’ is slated for a late 2009 release and features collaborations with Kanye West, Lil Wayne and Jay-Z. Drake will also be supporting Lil Wayne, Young Jeezy and Soulja Boy this summer on their Young Money Presents: America’s Most Wanted Music Festival tour. He’s shaping up to be one of the hottest commodities of the year.
