About this sound

Short clip of Drake rapping Started from the Bottom, from his 2013 hit single, used for glow-up edits, success stories and humble beginnings memes.

This is the instantly recognisable hook from Drake's Started from the Bottom, built around his confident, rhythmic delivery of the title line over a minimal piano loop and heavy beat. The short excerpt captures the boast in full, moving from the repeated bottom reference to the triumphant now we're here payoff. It feels motivational and a little smug at the same time, which is why a single play can turn an ordinary before and after clip into a joke about success, progress and proving doubters wrong.

Pro tip

Place the clip right on the reveal, starting just before the transformation so 'started from the bottom' lands on the old footage and 'now we're here' hits the upgrade. Keep the beat clean and skip extra music underneath.

How people use it
