GB Drako doesn't only rap: the Chicano rapper opens up about his stock portfolio

A Juice Unlocked podcast clip under the headline "Chicano Rapper GB Drako Reveals His Stock Portfolio." Drako, in a dark green Packers hoodie, sits on a couch at the mic and tells the off-camera hosts he invests in stocks, lists a few of his holdings, and talks about waiting for dips and waking up mad when a stock drops.

Chicano rapper GB Drako had a surprise for the Juice Unlocked podcast: he's in the stock market. "I don't only do rap, you know," he said in a clip posted Aug. 29, 2025, before telling the hosts he invests in stocks, too.

Asked which stocks he owns, Drako paused to check and said he has three or four. The reaction from across the mic: "Hey, that's something I wouldn't have guessed."

What's in the portfolio

Drako named Coca-Cola and Tesla, plus a third stock whose name is hard to make out in the clip. He said that one has given him the biggest return so far.

His approach is small and patient. He said he put in about $10 and is learning that it takes time, explaining that he has to "wait for the drop, the dip" to buy and sell. He also brought up market cap.

“I don't only do rap, you know.”

The part every investor knows

Drako was honest about the rough days. He said he sometimes wakes up in the morning mad because a stock dropped, and said money he put in, about $100, was down to $6.

Juice Unlocked framed the clip as a reminder to never judge a book by its cover and asked followers whether they were impressed. The post, tagged in Costa Mesa, drew more than 100 comments.

“Hey, that's something I wouldn't have guessed.”

“I just invested like 10 bucks and I'm kind of like, well, it takes time, you know.”
