Druski

Drew Desbordes (born September 12, 1994), known professionally as Druski, is an American comedian, actor, and influencer. He is known for his sketch comedy, Coulda Been Records, and collaborations with various musicians in their music videos, including Jack Harlow, Drake, Lil Yachty, and others.

Drew Desbordes was born on September 12, 1994, in Columbia, Maryland, to Cheryl Desbordes, a worker at the Department of State, and David McLain Desbordes, a commercial pilot who previously served in the United States Air Force as a captain and in the National Guard as a Major.

Desbordes' interest in comedy began after entertaining family members. His family introduced him to the genre as a child, as his parents watched popular comedians on television, such as Cedric the Entertainer and Dave Chappelle.

Desbordes graduated high school early. He then attended Georgia Gwinnett College before transferring to Georgia Southern University. In interviews, Druski discusses experiencing depression while in college, leading him to stop attending classes, and instead watch YouTube videos. He cites Steve Harvey and Gary Vaynerchuk as influences during this time. He dropped out of college after two semesters. Originally a sports analytics major hoping to become a sportscaster, he later turned to comedy after encouragement from his classmates.

On October 2, 2017, Desbordes began posting comedic skits and content on his Instagram account under the handle "druski2funny", now Druski. In his early skits, he played a character named Kyle Rogger, a frat bro, a ruthless record label executive, and others.

On March 9, 2020, Desbordes made an appearance in the music video of Lil Yachty's song "Oprah's Bank Account". On August 13, 2020, he was featured in the music video of Drake's song "Laugh Now Cry Later" featuring Lil Durk. He would later connect with rapper Jack Harlow, opening and hosting shows for him. On October 22, 2020, he made a cameo as a school bus driver in the music video for Jack Harlow's song "Tyler Herro". He also appears in videos for Jack Harlow's song "Churchill Downs", featuring Drake, and Chlöe and Latto's music video for "For the Night".

In 2021, Sean Combs (through his Revolt) and Adidas announced a new series called Sneakin' In with Druski, with Desbordes as the host. The series has featured people like Snoop Dogg, Teyana Taylor, and Yung Miami (from City Girls) since its launch. The same year, Desbordes created the satirical label "Coulda Been Records" as an avenue for artists to join his Instagram Lives, usually resulting in him teasing them throughout their appearances. Miami Dolphins wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. struck up a friendship with Druski upon finding his videos, and invited the comedian to stay at his home during the COVID-19 pandemic. Druski was an opening act for J. Cole and 21 Savage's The Off-Season Tour throughout September and October 2021. Also in October, Desbordes satirically offered Meek Mill to sign onto Coulda Been Records after Meek Mill said that he did not get paid for his music.

Desbordes opened for Chris Brown and Lil Baby on the One of Them Ones tour in the summer of 2022.
