The discography of Drake, a Canadian rapper and singer, consists of two studio albums, one extended play (EP), and eleven singles. His music has been released on record labels Universal Motown Records and Universal Republic Records, along with subsidiaries Young Money Entertainment and Cash Money Records.

Drake's debut album, Thank Me Later, was released in June 2010 and it produced four successful singles, including the top five single on the US Billboard Hot 100, "Find Your Love" in which it reached platinum sales status. The other three singles included "Over", "Miss Me" with rapper Lil Wayne, in which both singles peaked in the top twenty of the US and Canada music charts and both earning gold sales status, "Fancy" with rappers T.I. and Swizz Beatz became the fourth and final highest charting single of the album, peaking in the top thirty on the Billboard Hot 100. The album reached number one in the US and Canada, and shipped over one million copies in the US and was certified platinum by both the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and the Canadian Recording Industry Association (CRIA).

Following the success and positive reviews of the album, the album earned Drake four Grammy Award nominations at the 2011 53rd Annual Grammy Awards. Drake was nominated with a total of four nominations, including the Grammy Award for Best New Artist, the Grammy Award for Best Rap Solo Performance for his single "Over", the Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group for his single "Fancy" with T.I. and Swizz Beatz, and the Grammy Award for Best Rap Album for Thank Me Later.

Drake's second album, Take Care, was released in November 2011, as one of the most anticipated music releases in 2011, Take Care experienced several delays to its release date and subsequently leaked to the Internet nine days before its scheduled release.[1][2] The album produced four singles, "Headlines", "Make Me Proud" with female rapper Nicki Minaj, "The Motto" with rapper Lil Wayne and "Take Care" with Barbadian singer Rihanna, all four of which attained chart success in the United States and Canada. The album reached number one in both the US and Canada, making it his second number one album in a row to debut in both those countries. Upon its release, Take Care received general acclaim from music critics, who praised its expansive production, emotional themes, and Drake's songwriting.
