Not too long ago, Drake White learned one of the perks on being part of the Big Machine Label Group family is that label president, Scott Borchetta, has a lot of contacts and connections in the Indy racing and NASCAR world. As Drake was beginning to promote his latest single, “It Feels Good,” he explains that Scott had a relationship with “a really cool driver,” and he says, “One thing led to another and he put my name and logo on the back of the car.”
Drake also had a chance to sing the National Anthem at that race and he says, “It was in Birmingham and it was a really cool experience.”
