Rapper Drake's dad will appear on his son's new album.
Dennis Graham, who once worked as a drummer for Jerry Lee Lewis, has recorded verses for Heat of the Moment, a bonus track on Drake's upcoming new release Nothing Was the Same, which will also include collaborations with Jay Z and Lil Wayne.
The rapper tells XXL magazine, "I'm living my dad's dream. My dad
wanted to be a famous singer. Right now, he happens to be extremely
stable and content, and I take care of what I can for him. All he
wants to do is go to Beale Street in Memphis and play music. He’s
rediscovered his passion for music and for being a musician."
