Drake recently spoke about his latest release, “Hold On, We’re Going Home.”
“It’s me and [producer Noah] 40 [Shebib] just channeling our Quincy Jones-Michael Jackson production duo,” Drake said of the song, in an interview with MTV. “Obviously no offense to the greats. I know we’re not anywhere near that. It’s just us kind of doing our thing, humbly attempting.”
In 2011, Drake’s Take Care album featured him singing on many of the songs. Recent releases “Started From the Bottom,” “5 AM In Toronto,” “All Me” and his verse on Migos‘ “Versace (Remix)” all featured Drake rapping. “Hold On, We’re Going Home” is an R&B song.
“It’s not a Rap record,” he said. “It’s not ‘Versace.’ It’s not ‘Started From the Bottom.’ In approaching this album, I was like man, ‘It would be great if we had a record that was played at weddings in 10 years or that people that are away from their families in the army could listen to. Something that just [has] timeless writing, timeless melody.’
“So I did it with the group that we signed to OVO called Majid Jordan,” Drake added. “Majid is singing on the record with me and Jordan is his production partner. It’s a great record. I’m nervous and excited and all these things about it…I’ve never really put out a record like this before, so we’ll see how it goes.”

HHDX is trolling or Drake looks gay in all pics?
he actually looks gay in a majority of the pics i seen of him. he always making gays faces and poses! i seen some super gay pictures from OVO fest last weekend
lol, ikr. He looks so corny in all these pics.
1)Drake has the most number 1 hits at the age of 26
2) No other artist from the new wave of rappers goes double platinum like drake does
3) Drake is breaking a lot of records and he hasn’t even reached 30 yet
4) Drake is the face of rap everyone listens to rap for drake
5)Drake is the only 1 capable to go platinum first weak these days and drake will go down as the greatest of all time when its all said and done
6)Drakes tours are the highest selling out of all rappers drake runs rap its a fact stop denying.
Your number 3 point is basically reiterating what you said in your number 1 point. And number 4 is totally laughable.
You’re still wrong, Drake stan.
Most #1s on the hip hop R&B charts, which is a small portion of the total charts.
Even Chris Brown got more #1s than Drake on the biggest chart, the Hot 100.
Man, I swear to God HHDX does this shit on purpose, everytime they do a Drake article they put some gay ass pic on it lmao
I actually like some of Drakes songs…but him calling Kanye a God is very suspect to me.
Drake is one of the greatest artists in the history of music.
not even close yet
You wish.
DaVinchee X is coming
He’s smart. He stays versatile so that he can make more money. He’s real smart.
Wrong, bitch.
