Break from Drake: Milwaukee radio station not playing songs by Drake during Bucks-Raptors series

MILWAUKEE — Drake may have started from the bottom, but his music is no longer playing here ... at least at one Milwaukee radio station.

103.7 KISS-FM announced they're taking a break from playing any songs by Drake until "the 7-game series between the Milwaukee Bucks and Toronto Raptors is over."

Drake was born and raised in Toronto, Canada. He started his career as an actor in the Canadian teen drama series "Degrassi: The Next Generation" before becoming a Grammy-winning rapper.

Drake is apparently known to have his own curse: whatever team Drake has rooted for in a championship, the other team won. He recently used that to his advantage by wearing 76ers shorts while watching Game 7 so the Raptors would win.

"We're taking a break from you," KISS-FM host Riggs wrote in a blog post. "Just hold on, YOU'RE going home."

Game 1 of the Bucks-Raptors series starts at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday.
