Jim Jones reveals he passed on opportunity to sign Drake

In a resurfaced interview from last month, the Harlem native admitted that he passed on signing the certified lover boy because of his look and portrayal of Jimmy Brooks, a disabled person on the series “Degrassi.” “Drake definitely ran across my desk,” said Jones. “I got a call from Alan Grunblatt, I think I was on tour, and Alan was like, ‘I got this guy named Drake, uh, he’s an actor, he’s on Degrassi.’ I’m like, ‘Who the fuck is Drake on Degrassi?’ He let me hear him rapping like this boy could rap his ass off.” He ultimately declined the offer as he was unaware of how to advise Drizzy’s rap career.
