Drake: Thank Me NEVER
Just a year ago we were all listening to Drake's mixtape "So Far Gone", since that had so much unexpected success, Drake has been working on his new album ever since. I just want to start off by saying DRAKE IS NOT A RAPPER!!!! Now that I have finally got that off my chest, I will say Drake's album is nice, LOL. Every beat on his album is HARD.
In my opinion this is more so an R&B album rather than a Rap album, like everyone is saying. Some of his best R&B songs on the album were ruined once his decided to start rapping. For example, "Shut It Down" ft The Dream, would have been PERFECT if he didn't add that weak 16 at the end of the song, along with "Karaoke".
For his very first album, he should have not included so many features. His features include, Alicia Keys, Jay-Z, Swizz Beats, T.I., The Dream, Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj, and Young Jeezy. EVERY artist on his album had a better verse than him.
I just hope people don't over do it and make it seem like this album is a classic. It's nice, but its nothing like Reasonable Doubt, Illmatic, or Ready to Die, but I guess that's what makes Drake- Drake. Its a different sound, somewhat similar to Lauryn Hill's album The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill.
Some songs sounds as if he looked up every pick up line used on a girl and created a song using every line, LOL. I understand why people like Drake though, he's a geek, and Geeks have never been acknowledge before so I guess Drake is opening the doors for Geeks all over. Like Styles P said, "WIth a little bit of fame/ you can change the game/ but it's a shame/ they done opened up a lane for LAMES".
I like it for the most part, what ya'll think?
