Lil Wayne was expecting Drake to sell over 2 million in a week.Drake didn't exactly do 2 million or match Lil Wayne " THE CARTER 3 " with one million.But considering the condition that the economy's in and the falling of hip hop sales and the leaking of his album weeks before the release date, Thank Me Later did fair well.Listening to Thank me Later you can expect a good CD for your money.I strongly recommend this Cd to any fan of hip hop and R&B.
All good songs but a huge difference from his brand of music.From 1 through 10 I would rate this album a Strong 8. Example songs such as Fancy,Up all Night, Miss Me. The 23 year rapper than kicked the album up a notch with catchy and commerical songs such as " Fancy " the lady banger!Which most likely was the label idea! Drake has a certain brand of music that he sticks firmly to.But at times you can tell when the label interfere and convince Drake that his album will need that commerical hip hop feel. Drake also displays his improving vocal skills on the relaxing beat of " karaoke ". Signing with the unstoppable Young Money.Drake enhanced his back support and drop this years most anticipated album " Thank me later ".Selling over 400,000 copies in the first week,Drake once again silenced the critics and put up decent numbers.Opening the album with catchy lines such as " and my dreams are who I'm racin' with you can see I'm pacin it so that I'm always chasen it".On the amazing fulling song featuring Alicia Keys. With his smooth rap vocals over 40 cal feather-soft synths " So Far Gone " is labeled as one of the best mixtapes in hip hop.So Far Gone featured various artist such as Bun B,Lloyd,Lil Wayne,Trey Songz and more. Later discovered by Lil Wayne.Drake put out 2008 hottest Mixtape " SO FAR GONE ".Making a name for himself.This mixtape which circled the market strongly silenced all the critics of Drizzy. Making his way with his hit single "BEST I EVER HAD".But Drake was at it way before then with mixtapes such as Comeback Season,Room For Improvement,and October's Very Own. Cole > Drake….You've already heard the story,But lets take a moment to embrace his unbelievable statement in the industry.Drizzy "DRAKE" Rogers a Canadian born rapper who,until 17 months ago was only known for being Jimmy in Degrassi.Has become the hottest artist in the hip hop industry. That’s like sayin you trying to get fired from your job or don’t pay your bills cuz you’re just that sick…lolģ) “J.
“I promise to treat this roof like my daughter’s and raise it”…”I’m strong enough to go to the club, or the corner bar and lift the whole liquor counter up, cuz I’m raisin the bar.” How are those strong lyrics…really someone co-sign for that?Ģ) Because Drake’s real and not pretending to be something he’s not he’s corny? We can only listen to people that are hard and from the streets? Those dude’s are all fake after the first album anyway…What the fuck does 50 or Banks or anyone thug have to say after their first album? They’re not even in the streets anymore…so isn’t that fake? Or can you guys relate to this.cuz you’re life in the hood is so tough you have time to sit in here on your computer and download this shit to put on your iPod…really? We all know bangin is retarded anyway so why does anyone with a brain wanna hear about people who are doin it. Ok, three things…without hate or retarded comments….real convo.ġ) Please tell me why em’s NEW stuff is any better than Drake’s? Em’s not afraid, for instance.
