Druski has become one of the biggest comedians in the world over the past few years. Overall, he is mostly known for his skits, as well as his hilarious reality shows. He has completely dominated these spaces over the past few years, and it feels as though he is more of a household name than ever before.
However, it wasn't always like this for Druski. His come-up was not an easy one, and there were plenty of restless nights in which he plotted his next move. Even when he first started to gain recognition for his skits, the money wasn't instantaneous. He needed some big breaks along the way, and one of them came from none other than Drake.
During an interview with Steven Bartlett of The Diary Of A CEO, Druski admitted that it was the "Laugh Now Cry Later" music video that led to his wealth. Brands started calling, and real money began to pour in.

“The thing that changed my life was Drake calling for the 'Laugh Now Cry Later' music video," Druski explained. "Brands started to take me seriously, it was no more sending free merch. It wasn’t until then that the real money was coming in. I can’t believe he took a chance on me”
Had it not been for this opportunity, there is no telling where Druski would have ended up with his career. Ultimately, he was able to springboard this look into a foray into megastardom. He is out here hosting the BET Awards and getting real attention from political figures like Erika Kirk.
Throughout the interview, Druski also spoke about falling into the world of scamming. He even stated that his plan was to end his own life if he didn't make it in comedy.
