The Canadian rapper might have appeared in 145 episodes of the popular teen show, but years later, he’s only raking in a whopping $8.25 for his work.
Naturally, fans are loving Drake making fun of himself online, with one fan hilariously writing, “My bank account looks like Drake’s Degrassi residuals.”
