Take Care, Drake…really.
Just read this and I’m kinda puzzled.
It’s as fine we really expected Drake’s album to be a hip-hop album…
For what Drake was aiming for, it wasn’t half bad even though I dp agree with the review on this aspect: half the shit he’s saying is a facepalm
As a whole, the flow of this album (track by track) swayed well. Thank Me Later was just a bunch of tracks together.
From his improvement, sound, musicality and etc. I can approve of Take Care.
Do I enjoy it? Not as much. I find myself wanting to skip a few songs…even when I’m high. music is always 10 times better high and shame on you if you haven’t heard music high but whatever your lose but yeah if i had a bitch this shit would be awesome high…
Anyways,
the major reason why I’m fine with this album is because I don’t mind having an album that’s ‘soft’ in my library. Yeah, I’m serious. I’ll save it for when I have some bitches at my dream apartment or when I need to cry about past bitches.
Practice is that perfect song…f’real.
I look at album ratings like rating bitches. I don’t see this album as something decent during a regular day even if it is about bitches. This album can be a 1, but it has a nice vibe around it. This album can be a 10 but what the fuck, the vibe is a force.
Again, I’m fine with this album if the lights are dim or if there’s a nice chick around. Play this album with the homies in the whip though? That’s something you would dare someone to do. So yes, rating this as if I was rating a bitch makes perfect sense.
Keep her close but keep her away from the homies.
On that note, I give Take Care:
5.5/10
I find myself enjoying his mixtapes more than his albums. He fits into that Midwest hip-hop scene IMO. Toronto isn’t that far away from Chicago no, julian that’s a stupid coincidence. He had a decent amount of dopeness on Room From Improvement, Comeback Season & So Far Gone. It’s sad to know that Drake turned from ‘smooth’ to ‘soft’ with his music but at least he could take a few steps back if he’s tired of the criticism yeah right he’s making millions. like he gives a fuck.
Should he go back to his old ways?
I’ll believe in Drizzy’s musicality. I’ll give him a pass to do whatever he wants. 40 and him are making some original shit and I’ll never turn that down.
*thinks about it*
You can say this is 808’s & Heartbreak Pt. 2.
i’m telling you when it is all set and done everybody is gonna look back at kanye’s album and say it changed hip-hop. for better or for worse? of course everyone is going to say it made hip-hop ‘soft’ and shit but boo fuckin’ hoo get used to it, that’s music for you. shit happens.
Stevie Wonder’s harmonica solo just gave me the chills.
