Drake Wants To Play in Barack Obama Biopic!

Drake

Aubrey ‘Drake‘ Graham is one of the biggest rapers in more than a decade. He used to be the child star who once cut his teeth playing ‘Wheelchair Jimmy’ on the Canadian teen series ‘Degrassi: The Next Generation’.
In one recent interview he gave for Paper Magazine August 2010, Drake reveled that he’s still interested in acting. He already has a role he would like to play: President Barack Obama.
“I hope somebody makes a movie about Obama’s life soon because I could play him. That’s the goal [laughs]. I watch all the addresses. Anytime 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. Slowly but surely, I’m not in the study mode because nobody’s called me about anything, but I just pay attention so when the day comes I’m not scrambling to learn how to speak like him. I want to be involved in great film projects. I don’t want to do the basketball movie that everyone does. I don’t want to do the typical black film that everyone expects. I think that I have enough experience to actually be involved in a real meaty project full of substance”, he said.
