Drake believes that he could play President Obama in a biopic picture.

The rapper kicked off his career in TV with Degrassi: The Next Generation, in which he played Jimmy Brooks for eight seasons, before moving into music.

Since then he has appeared in The Border and Being Erica as well as on the big screen in Charlie Bartlett. But now Drake believes that he came further his acting career and would take on the role of Obama.

Speaking to Paper the rapper said: "I hope somebody makes a movie about Obama's life soon because I could play him. That's the goal.

"I watch all the addresses. Any time I see him on TV, I don't change the channel, I definitely pay attention and listen to the inflections of his voice," he said.

"If you ask anyone who knows me, I'm pretty good at impressions. Slowly but surely, I'm not in the study mode because nobody's called me about anything, but I just pay attention so when the day comes I'm not scrambling to learn how to speak like him.

"I want to be involved in great film projects. I don't want to do the basketball movie that everyone does. I don't want to do the typical black film that everyone expects. I think that I have enough experience to actually be involved in a real meaty project full of substance."
