Countless artists have lent their name and likeness to various spirit, beer and wine brands so it makes sense that the next market for celebrity-branded ingestibles would be marijuana.
Along with the more obvious purveyors (Bob Marley, Tommy Chong, Willie Nelson Snoop Dogg) a number of surprising artists are getting into the cannabis industry including Jenny Lewis, Sigur Rós, Gene Simmons of Kiss and even Martha Stewart. Most likely with encouragement from her cooking show partner, Snoop Dogg.
Canada legalised recreational marijuana last year, joining a number of US states that have seen the industry rapidly expand in recent years.
Along with More Life Growth Co. Drake also has his own line of whiskey, called Virginia Black Whiskey.
In addition to his more entrepreneurial activities, Drake also jumped on a new remix of the Brazilian artist MC Kevin o Chris’s ‘Ela É do Tipo’. The song title translates to, ‘She Is the Type’ and was released via Drake’s OVO Sound.
