Singer/songwriter or rapper as some would say Aubrey Drake Graham, professionally known as his middle name “Drake,” made remarks pertaining to his newly found identity in 2011, when he had officially transitioned.

“I just feel like— scratch that n***a, I always felt like I was a man on the inside, you know?” Said Drake during an obscure interview with Anderson Cooper. The interview, which originally was aired on CNN, was later taken down by Drake’s manager Oliver El-Khatib, after he feared that the interview was bad for marketing, or even a safety concern, much to Drake’s dismay.

Drake was cheered on by various activists, such as Blair Imani, Mike Oxlong, and Alexandria Ocasió Cortez, as well as caes out by conservative leaders like Marjorie Taylor Greene, and former president Donald Trump.
