A Course Focusing On Drake Is Coming to Montreal's Concordia University This Fall

"Drake: Media, Myth and Manhood" is taught by Yassin "Narcy" Alsalman and will use Drake's catalogue, career, OVO brand and more as a lens for exploring art, power relations, celebrity and culture.

Class is in session, and Drake is the subject.

This fall, Montreal's Concordia University will be offering a special edition of its FFAR 256 "Hip-Hop: Past/Present/Future" course titled "Drake: Media, Myth and Manhood," focusing on the Toronto rapper's career and global impact. Drake is the latest hip-hop or comedy star to become a case study for the fine arts elective, which has previously been centred around the careers of Kanye West, Kendrick Lamar, Dave Chappelle and more.
