Michael Al-Jiboori - aka DarkSkinnedDrake - Introduction

The young man. The myth. The soon to be legend.. Ha I wish, hopefully. I'm ridiculous. I'm chill. Sooner born and bred. I'm from Tulsa Oklahoma. My Snapchat name is DarkSkinnedDrake. I'm a jokester at heart. But I'm also an athlete, designer, and big brother. Family, rugby, and design are my passions, my life. I am a graphic designer majoring in Visual Communications here at THE University of Oklahoma. I'm proud to be from this state despite others thinking that all we have are buffalo and the Oklahoma City Thunder. I'm also a mutt (puppy emoji) meaning I am mixed. My mother is Arabian and German. My father is African American and Cherokee. I am all! I love it. I feel culturally blessed and interesting. Plus I can act light skinned and dark skinned haha. All of my little brothers are light skinned, I am the only one that came out dark but its ok I compare that to being the male lion of a pride with the dark mane, as they are the alpha. I love my little brothers though, and my little feisty princess of a baby sister. Rugby has been a big part of my life recently. I was captain for 4 years for the University of Oklahoma. All-American honors. Notoriety throughout the American rugby world. D1 player of the week. And have also played for the likes of Dallas, Denver, and most recently New York City. All have been great times with great competition. I live for competition, and I live for good vibes and chill times.
