Is Drake a genius, he certainly has The Midas Touch. He's a successful hip-hop artist, restaurateur ( he has a stake in LBJ's pizza company) and now entertainment producer.
When a project is green lit, several producers come on board to handle logistics, but it's the executive producers that call the shots. Sam Levinson is the creator and writer, Drake is other executive producer of Euphoria. Of course the actors are not going to know his role since he wasn't involved on the creative end. However Drake greased the wheels to get the show made, he certainly had a hand in the budget, locations and deadline. Drake got his musical chops from his father, he got his business acumen from his mother. HBO wanted a show to rival the teen dramas Netflix was producing. The HBO heads are going to be more receptive if Drake is pitching it...he has a net worth of $180 million.
