- G. RodriguezDrake has made itI haven't been a huge fan of Drake. Out of the songs that I had listened to on the radio, I just thought he was OK. Maybe another one hit wonder. I did like his song "Successful" from his mixtape but that was about it.
I had seen some good reviews on this album though and when I saw the $5 download on Amazon, I got it. I love all the slow, easy listening songs on this album, way better than what's on the radio. I can't pinpoint what exactly about his rapping style that I like but I guess its just smooth and sleek. I also looked up the wikipedia page for the album, so many producers worked on this album and it shows. This is one of the best rap albums of the year, or at least best produced, almost, just almost like a Kanye West album. I feel like I can relate to a lot of what his songs are about.
* Note: The Motto didn't come on the download, so I might just have to download it at an extra cost
Best songs:
- The Ride, I like how he goes in and out of first person / third person. You don't know if he's talking about himself or someone else (at first). I feel that he did this to better explain what he's going through by looking at his life from the outside
- Lord Knows, Rick Ross really makes this a stand out song. It almost sounds like a Kanye song with the choir background singing. I can't get enough of this song. One of the best produced songs on the album.
- Hyfr, Everyone's heard this song. Its just a good party song, when you just want have a good time. The chorus will stay in your head for an entire week Hell Yeah, Hell Yeah Hell Yeah, Effin Right... - KimIs this album good? HYFR!These days, Drake has turned into a man that is either loved or hated. First of all, people dislike him for his ability to balance singing and rapping in his songs. Lets be honest - some flat out hate it and wish he would choose one. But his real fans know no choice has to nor should be made. Drake is talented in both worlds, and he best says "F you" to his haters in "Lord Knows" ft. Rick Ross. Those of you who have listened to this song know EXACTLY to what I am referencing.
"Take Care" has been a project carefully crafted over the past year by Drake. It's about his life, who he is, what he experiences and he allows the listener to take a glimpse into his world. Its a refreshing break from those rap artists who are constantly spitting lines about drug dealing, threatening to kill other dudes or steal their girls. Drake is a genre of his own. There are not many other artists who can be compared to him - which is one thing I appreciate about his artistry. He gives music that is completely relatable and he is endlessly quotable.
I recommend this album to anyone with a brain, and anyone who is able to appreciate good music. There are a lot of great songs on this album. My favorites are most certainly:
Under Ground Kings
Buried Alive Interlude
Over My Dead Body
Crew Love
Take Care
The Love
Doing It Wrong
I do have a couple of issues with this album. I do have to say my least favorite is "Practice." I think its an awkward way to end an album (if you didn't purchase the deluxe edition). "The Ride" (bonus track) would have been more suitable and "Practice" should have been offered as a bonus. Also, Birdman's contribution to "We'll Be Fine" is well... not fine. - Teamsterno contest...Drake's best album by any measure. Introspective, vulnerable, "overdosed on confidence" and plenty of swagger to boot. This is the album Drake should have named "Nothing Was The Same" cause he hasn't come close to anything this confessional and soul searching since this album. On the one hand I'm not gonna blame him; you're not gonna land a half a billion $ contract making music this thoughtful and mature in today's music environment. It is what it is I guess. But if you ever wanna peek behind the multi platinum hits Drake of today and get a semblance of the artist; this is the album that will take you there.
- C Maserclassic albumclassic album sounds really good on vinyl
- CorysgirlsGreat soundPlays great. No issues and great album
- AlejandroWarped and gatefold doesn’t closeBoth LPs came warped and the gatefold is always half open, but the sound quality is nice.
- Brandon AndersonGoodItem came fast and not broken! This is honest may the first time I have received a CD from Amazon that didn’t come in a cracked case????
- AlonnaTake Care is a FLAWLESS album :)Ok , so Where should I begin ?! Drake really did his thing on his sophomore album , Take Care !! If your a fan of Drake , you would agree with me here. Every one of the tracks on this album are pure GOLD ! None of them suck , unless your a guy and find Drake totally annoying. Well, cmon, most of Drakes fans are FEMALES ,so of course some of the tracks are gonna be a little slow and targeted towards women. But, don't worry guys, tracks like " Underground Kings" & "Lord Knows" have more of a masculine feel to them. But anyway , it really doesn't matter if your a girl OR a guy because all of the tracks are just so amazing !! This album is so good, its just impossible to skip a track .. TRUST ME . :)
Favorite Track: I love all the songs on Take Care but , the track called "The Ride" featuring a trending underground artist named The Weeknd . This song is just so soothing but dope!! & I just love The Weeknd's voice and just The Weeknd in general !! :D
