The Official Drake "Take Care" Album Discussion Thread (11.15.2011)

[Food & Liquor]

Also this helps solidify The Weeknd as the best new artist out right now of any genre... HoB and Thursday were dope as fuck and his contributions on here were awesome too. Some of this album has that influence too

 

[R.D.]

I guess my copy wasnt official but the motto remix came with the version i downloaded

S/N i think Lord Knows is overrated. IDK why but yall are gassing the shit out of it

 

[lookdude]

Damn that was a pretty good review by Sniper

 

[contemplate]

good review by sniper but lol @ implying "look at what you've done" being better than "dear mama"

That second verse on "Look What You've Done" is bout his uncle, not his aunt...I had just seen that get said in here a few different times....

 

[MERYLISGOAT]

decided not to bootleg the cd

although he gives "permission" to do so on twitter

im waiting til tuesday

but my boyfriend had been raving about this damn look what youve done song like crazy

and after lots of battling i finally listened to it

i have to say that its now my favoritest song-of all time

kinda crazy

it tops sam cookes change gon come

which has been my favorite sing i was a child

ive never experienced a song so thoughtful and personal yet relatable to every persons situation

i feel like anyone can take out certain situations and names and apply the song to themselves

im a long time fan of drakes

been rocking with him since niggas applied songs to thier myspace profiles

but i didnt expect to be taken back like this

i feel like he always one ups hisself

the fact that he says one line that niggas truly say in everyday life and makes it comes to life is ridiculous

"boohoo, sad story. black american dad story"

since 09 i feel as though his music has been personally written for me.

and every other true fan of his that i meet feels the same way

thats a talent other raps cant sell

so im impatiently waiting for the official release

in the mean time im thinking about how i can personalize an owl to tattoo it on the back of my neck.

smh-im young and reckless.

sue me

 

[MERYLISGOAT]

i went on a tangent

its to be expected though

 

[Toothpik]

camera is the best track here yo..great production...not 1, not 2, but 3 catchy ass parts!the "what u know bout the team?", "only on camera", and of course the hook...nice flow, its chill as hell..loving that track along with the buried alive interlude best

 

[stupot0607]

Suprisingly Good, im not a Drake Fan, i checked it out, and i been listening to it all day.... I wouldnt exactly call it a hip hop or a rap album. But Musically its on point!! Good Music is Good Music though.

 

[Toothpik]

the weekend kills the ride in the last minute...one of the best parts of the album..

 

[gns]

smash..........

 

[TheBossman]

if you was in a pine box, box.. i would surely break the lock. i just right in, in and fall asleep fall a alseep, because you are the death of me cuz you are re, the death me, the death of me. lol

 

[JadaRoss]

Musically 10 out of 10. Drake you cannot hold this dude to a specific genre. Dude is doing what Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, And Issac Hayes were doing in the 1970's expanding the boundaries of black music. Dude is a musical visionary and destined to be a musical great. Fuck all the emo shit, the jewgro shit, the music is soft or this or that. This is some of the best and well crafted music someone can put out. The reviews are coming out from the critics and dude is getting damn near perfect ratings for reputable organizations. It's not traditional in the sense of J. Cole and Wale or even The Throne. But, this is about as well crafted and made albums in ages in black music.

Hate Drake all you want, but appreciate that the man is not a carbon copy and he has a vision for his music.

 

[MERYLISGOAT]

smash..........

so....what about that drake album?

 

[MarcusGarvey]

I think he found his lane, surprised by it.

 

[StoneColdMikey]

So how is this influence by Winnie the Pooh?
