Drakes first studio album, he had all eyes on him being the new kid in the game and definitely had stuff to prove. Some people sleep on the album because it’s definitely more catered for the radio since the label forced that hand. After this album his career sky rocketed like no other. (2010)
that coke and sprite line was insane , since he had that commercial with sprite instead of coca cola but then talking about the drug coke. easy to get but just bars
When he says “the 2 guns in my face during the stick up” was set up by a girl he went on a date with in Toronto I believe was right after drake signed his deal with young money so he had his money from the signing but yeah 💯
Thank you for doing one of my favorites. I hope you can do “look what you’ve done” someday. It’s a song that sheds light into his life before the fame where he talks about his mother and uncle. I would like to see what you think of that track
the"avoided the coke game and went with spirt instead" is a double punchline becuase the obvious one is hes saying he avoided selling drugs and would rather get his money doing legal things. and the second is him saying that he wont work with coke(the soda) and would rather work with sprint which is a nod to the notorious an infamous drake spirt commercial that u might you might seen
This was a dope album ! I remember when it dropped just a year or so after so far gone came out...I remember thinking drake entertained me for free for over a year the least I can do is buy this album 🤷🏾♂️🔥 you can listen to this album with no skips..
Hey Charlie, hope you're doing good bro. Stumbled across your channel yesterday by complete chance and I'm very grateful that I did. You're incredibly well-articulated and it's very satisfying to hear to you discovering and breaking down some of the greatest beats in history, as well as the more obscure ones. And the best part is, you've barely scratched the surface! I also have 4 recommendations I hope you'd be interested in: BADBADNOTGOOD - In Your Eyes feat.

Has anyone requested Drake #LightUp remix featuring #LiLWayne and #JayZ. It's not an official remix with those three together, the official remix was with Jay-Z only, but Drake sent the remix to Lil Wayne while he was locked up in 'rikers island 'and he blessed the track as well. Check it out. Here's the link ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-V_q_ZXy7AX8.html
