Get to know the ranks of Drake's OVO Sound record label.

Aubrey Drake Graham was born in October, and while many artists choose to name their record labels after hometowns, personal mottos and/or expensive vehicles (looking at you, Rozay), Drizzy paid tribute to his birth month by founding October's Very Own, now known as OVO Sound. Since 2007, the rapper/singer has been releasing mixtapes on the label, but it was officially founded in 2012, after which Drake began signing other artists.

Beginning with Noah "40" Shebib, Drake's go-to producer and right hand man, OVO has assembled a roster of producers whose work has since been heard on songs by artists from Kendrick Lamar to Bun B. Recently, the label has expanded to include three more recording acts, showing signs of becoming a full-fledged powerhouse in the hip-hop/R&B sphere.

Read on to get in-depth information on every artist currently on OVO's roster.
