Though he's more known for his music nowadays, Drizzy started his career on the Canadian TV show Degrassi: The Next Generation. Skepta will also feature in the new season. Walters met up with Drake and said he's nothing like you'd expect.
"He is such a down to earth, nice guy. He’s so famous you would expect him to be this crazy character but he’s actually quite boring, in a good way. I had a meeting with him and I brought all of my kids along. My eldest was chatting away in his ear for ages and he was just cool," Walters said.
Top Boy will be available on Netflix sometime in 2018.
