It’s Drake season. Area code 901 serves Memphis, Tennessee and a majority of its inner-ring suburbs. Shelby Drive is a popular road in Memphis that used to be known as Whitehaven-Capleville Road aka Whitecap. Scroll to the video at the end of this article to see Drake deliver some of his classic dance moves in the video for “Look Alive.”
Fresh off his hit song “God’s Plan” Drizzy continues to release quality music, separating himself from the competition. The rapper, whose real name is Aubrey Graham is keeping it family first. In “God’s Plan” he proclaims “I only love my bed and my mama, I’m sorry.”
Drake’s collaboration with BlocBoy JB is a shoutout to his father’s Memphis roots. The Toronto rapper has made it clear that the 901 is like his second home. He spent a substantial amount of time in Houston during the early portion of his career but he has family in Tennessee. BlocBoy JB is from Memphis, the home of Drake’s father, Dennis Graham.
