In Drakezilla's relatively short career, he has already achieved a great deal. Initially starting off in his Melbourne crew 'Homebrand' with fellow artists fRiTs and DJ Denno, the trio put together a debut mixtape of epic proportions.

Drake has worked on many different projects in recent years, including recording, mixing and featuring on Mind Over Matters debut album "Keepin' It Breezy" and their newest release "Free The Wolves" along with fellow friend and artist Phatchance. Drake also recently featured on the "Who's Got Next" mixtape along with Mind Over Matter again, as well as mixing and featuring on Elgen + Johnny Utahs debut "The Welcoming Party".

Heya, apologies for the business like message, I'm a lover not a spammer, but I'm swinging around my friends pages letting people know my album Inkstains is *finally* dropping next week (November the 27th) in stores and online via iTunes. To celebrate the launch date I'm streaming the entire thing online from my Myspace exclusively for the next week, so if you're curious to give it a listen then I would really appreciate you taking a few minutes to drop by and check it out.
Presuming that for some insane reason you love it and can't be without the CD a moment longer I'm running signed pre-orders through JB HI-FI. These aren't going for long so if you want a piece of the action swing by http://www.jbhifionline.com.au/music/urban-grooves/inkstains/470165 and cop it
Hello there drake :-) Just passing by to spread the word that my LP, ‘Earthworthy’, will be out very soon and will be available to purchase via paypal from my myspace (and hopefully other places in the world if all goes to plan…). Until the LP drops I have a bunch of tracks from the album up on my myspace if you’re interested in having a listen. I also have 2 film clips for tracks featuring on the LP, one is yet unreleased, the other is on my myspace already, and youtube. ..
‘Earthworthy’ features Thorts, Esvee, Class A, JP, G-Force, Nikkita, Lady Lash, Butler Yeats & Morgan Macmanus, with production from Proph1, Xcise & Crytearia. And below is my name, for no apparent reason. Thanks for letting me spam you a bit! Kady…
