*Drake appears excited to learn the results of an ancestry test that reveals he has Nigerian roots.
On May 8, the rapper posted an image of his father’s “Ethnicity Estimate” from Ancestry.com, showing 30% coming from Nigeria.
“This is my dad’s results, does this mean I’m a Naija man finally?” Drake asked in black highlighted text over the image.
Along with his Nigerian roots, Drake’s post also showed that his father, Dennis Graham, also has roots in Cameroon, Congo & Western Bantu Peoples, Ivory Coast & Ghana, England & Northwestern Europe, Scotland, and more.
In other Drake news, the Grammy award-winning rapper and Diddy have signed on as executive producers of French Montana’s forthcoming documentary, “For Khadija.” The film follows sacrifices made by his immigrant mother as she left her native country to create a better life for her family in America. The movie’s official synopsis says it follows “the unlikely rise of Moroccan-born, multi-platinum recording artist French Montana, as his single mother sacrifices everything to raise her three young sons in the Bronx after being abandoned by their father and left destitute.”
The Mandon Lovett-directed documentary, set to premiere June 16 at the Tribecac Film Festival, will “span the globe as it depicts the family’s unique immigrant journey, a son’s perseverance in the face of insurmountable obstacles, and a mother’s unwavering faith – all in pursuit of the American dream.”
