Drake’s father, Dennis Graham, has revealed that he is embarking on a new project; a television show called Fame and Family.
The Graham family patriarch will develop the new series with the blessing of his son. Dennis said, “I’m filming a new TV show, where I’m interviewing the parents of superstars. It’s called Fame And Family. It’s my new project, and it’s gonna be fantastic. Drake just called me, and I shared it with him and he goes, ‘Dad, that’s the best thing you’ve ever done’”.
Dennis also revealed that the pilot episode has already been filmed and features him interviewing Master P and Deon Cole from the successful American comedy series Black-ish.
Mr Graham also hinted that Drake may appear on a future episode of the series saying, “I would like to sit down and have a conversation with him”.
Fame and Family adds to the list of television endeavours for Drake and his family which include of course his teenage days as a star on the teen drama series Degrassi: The Next Generation, his executive producer credit on the upcoming HBO drama Euphoria and of course, his work on the upcoming new series of the hugely successful British series, Top Boy which is due to drop this Autumn.
