Drake is more than record-setting performer. He is also the composer and lyricist of his songs. While this is not unusual in the rap world, it does set him apart from many of the best-selling singers of all time. However, the music business is fast-changing, and few stars have remained at the top for very long. Drake's talents as a songwriter and an actor in addition to being a performer will certainly help his longevity. It may be that his era has just begun.
