Drake’s Dad is having a moment – literally.
Dennis Graham – the father of Toronto rapper Drake – co-stars in the Arkells’ new video called – wait for it – Drake’s Dad.
The inspired single, off the rockers’ new album, Morning Report out Aug. 5, was written after Arkells frontman Max Kerman met Graham in a Memphis bar on Beale Street last summer. Kerman was part of a bachelor’s road trip of 16 friends through the American south.
“We listened to a lot of Drake on the way down,” said Kerman down the line from Lollapalooza in Chicago on Thursday before the band’s performing slot.
“And our one friend Adam, who really knows a lot about Drake culture, he spotted Dennis from across the bar. He was like, ‘Holy s---! There’s Drake’s dad right now!’ We moseyed on over. We took a photo. He’s just very nice. He’s like a very easy going, friendly dude.” Dennis is a great man I've met many times. His brothers are also musicians.
