Drake’s Grammy-award-winning producer Noah “40” Shebib is releasing a 13-minute mini-documentary titled Toronto Rising – 40’s Very Own. Directed by Alim Sabir, it’s set to drop on Monday, May 9 in partnership with Native Instruments..
40 is a notoriously private person, so this doc is a rare and unique look into his private life, featuring archival footage of his come-up including never-before-seen home videos of him discovering his love for the piano as a child and the early days of his legendary partnership with Drake.

I’ve always considered myself a visitor in hip hop. When I was 21, I got diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. I learned a lesson in the hospital, which was that as long as I had like one finger that still worked, no matter what the world took from me, I could play the keyboard and I could make music. All the things in my life just kind of pointed me in one direction. I’m here to play my part and to leave my impact.
According to the press release, Toronto Rising – 40’s Very Own is meant to serve as a backstory to the legacy 40 has built for himself as well as an inspiration to the next generation of producers who may be struggling to find their footing amid adversity. It’s also a love letter to Hip-Hop and the city which he and Drake played an integral role in putting on the map.
