With his sophomore album Take Care landing in stores yesterday, Drake is expected to have one of the highest first-week sales of the year.
According to HITS Daily Double, Drizzy is expected to move 675,000 to 725,000 copies of his latest. This marks the third-best first-week sales of 2011, with Lady Gaga’s selling 1.1 million units of Born This Way and Lil Wayne pushing almost million copies of Tha Carter IV in its first week.
Take Care, the follow-up to last year’s Thank Me Later, features guest appearances from Nicki Minaj, Kendrick Lamar, Rick Ross and more.

let the hate begin
now
Really?! Congrats to him. Apparently Drake and Lil Wayne have either the most loyal or dumbest fans ever. Both of their albums leaked and neither were good but they still do terrific 1st week numbers during a time where people do not buy music. That is very interesting.
we know they have diehard fans!!! look at YADIG all over every comments section on HHDX!! 😛
either the most loyal fans, dumbest fans, or you have horrible taste in music lol
Because I do not care for Drake’s music does not mean I have bad taste in music, it just means I do not like his music. I rather not listen to subpar lyrics or songs that have the same content over and over again with the same cadence formula. You like it thats cool, the album in MY opinion was not worth buying.
CONGRATS TO MY FELLOW FAG, DRAKE. NOW HE CAN RELAX AND SPEND TIME TAKING CARE OF MY ASSHOLE
right i totally agree with u but by popularity hes good..and please if u have time ..listen to “look what youve done” off take care..and give me your honest opinion on that song
kerry what are you doing man… a bad taste in music? man if the youth listened to music with substance instead of pop music today we could accomplish the impossible..instead of all this swag haha u have a bad taste in music its so sad to see how ignorant ppl are when it comes to this art
haha ok ok please give me a list of artist with substance…seriously ill do my homework lol because honestly i dont know if u really listen to drake but he is one of the most incentive deep and emotional rappers that ive ever heard hes just real man and im not talkin about his pop shit..im talkin the calm say whats real .. the resistance.. thats all real to me
The song concept and what he is talking about is fine but it is the same boring cadence. I am not trying to make you or anyone dislike his music, I just am not a believer in the hype. I personally would rather listen to J Cole, Kendrick Lamar and Omen.
right i fuck with j cole.. i guess it all comes down to opinions..and after rereading this comments replys..why do i feel like that was jay z
FUCK DRAKE HE IS A SOFT FAGGOT!!!!
lol 🙂 Hating just for hates sake… album is aight… like the vibe but the lyrics are still meh!
K.dot’s verse is tight though so I might get the album… I listen to it on spotify a bit more first
Drizzy just dropped an album that has performed critically and commercially better than his debut, completely decimating the “Sophomore Curse”. I for one, am a fan of the album, and think it’s a pretty good album. I know I copped it, congrats to Drizzy. He’s putting up those Em-Type numbers this time
Nice to see people Buying records and not hating.
Damn I guess it wont be no sophomore Jinx!!!!! LOL Hey isn’t funny that Miami house the Big Three in Basketball and Rap!!!!! LOL James, Bosh and Wade/ Wayne Drake and Nicki!!! Hate on people!!!!!!!!!
haha really lebron james?? he barely makes my top ten!!! lol
nicki is next
nope tyga
Congradulations
its spelled with a t not a d
YESSSS, DRAKE DID IT HE IS THE BEST……HE ANS WAYNE RUN SHIT…..THEY ARE THE GAYEST NIGGAZ ALIVE AND I LOVE THEM….THEYRE THE BEST RAPPERS EVER.AND I AM THEIR BUTT SLAVE
haha thankks &my bad
good look for Drake and YMCMB – solid album.
is there any doubts that young money buys their own cd’s?
last year drake had a lot of buzz, he was a new artist, and he only sold 475k
this year his buzz is probably at half and he sells 675k to 725k? c’mon son
it’s not hating, say what you want but to me this is bullshit
wayne selling almost a million? with that weak ass album? really?
C3 was nice but C4 is buffalo nuts
birdman oil money for the win
he doesn’t need a buzz. Drake and Wayne both have a large and loyal fanbase (not thos little teenage girls) who will buy their music no matter if they have a hit song on the radio.
What the fuck???? Those sales make no sense….His sales are higher then Kayne, Nicki Manaj and Eminem….Who are arguably more popular and well known in pop culture then he is…
Cash Money must be buying these records or something…Even his single isn’t doing THAT great….
em sold 785
ouch truth hurts lol…y r u mad??
Not mad, it just doesn’t make any logical sense…. J Cole or Wayne’s sales don’t make sense either…Shit is looking funny these days
His single isn’t doing that great?
Make Me Proud is number 9 on the Billboard 100. Just goes to show people like you are just rather than bringing facts to the table.
Just hating*
im a dick riding booty licking faggot
I AM THE YMCMB BUTTSLAVE
ok we get it you are pretending to be yadig and making it seem like he’s gay. youre both trolls. get a new joke its not funny
You’re an even bigger faggot for pretending to be YADIG. Wtf? get a life fag, quit pretending to be someone else.
NO SERIOUSLY I GET BUTT FUCKED BY WAYNE ERRYDAY AND BIRDMAN KISSES ME ON THE LIPS. NO HOMO.
I think Anonymous is jealous,lol
I’m pretty sure the Anonymous Comments here are YADIG’s faggot ass
so 725.000 faggots gonna buy this record. Then there is something really wrong with hiphop
he makes music for women and men who get pussy so u might not understand why you would go and buy that album..and what was the last good album u bought??
i dont care if he makes music for women. ll cool j made hiphop for women but atleast he had the flow and lyrics back in the day. drake is just garbage.
@Kerry
He also makes music for people who think life is supposed to be materialistic cuz a bulk of the shit he raps about is shit that most people don’t have or do cuz they’re not famous and they aren’t living the lifestyle. Congrats you get so much pussy yet you’d probly suck Drake’s dick if he told you to. Most of us live in the real world and work 9 to 5 jobs, broke and struggling so we can relate to rappers that talk about struggle, not “champagne wishes, 30 white bitches”
BTW the last 2 albums I bought was All 6’s and 7’s from tech n9ne and the Bad Meets Evil EP, but IDC if u heard those or appreciate those, to each his own
This is the death of hiphop 725 k faggots buying this shit.
hiphop is getting more and more music for gay people! they better can call it Hip Fag!
Wow…clever.
Wow… clever.
Congratz to Drake. I am not an ardent fan of his music, but guyz just give respect to a man who worked hard. Clap for him.
DO you have a problem with gays? Do you hate gay people? What is every hip hop fan’s obsession with gays in hip hop? Theres nothing wrong with being gay.
anything from cash money is gonna sell just like the no limit days p had his grandma go double platinum
probably all fans of degrassi junior high bought this gay album!
NOBODY BUT WAYNE ON DRIZZY LEVEL RIGHT NOW RIP J COLE RIP YELAWOLF RIP WALE. LUDA GO SIT IN THE OLD FOLKS HOME DRIZZY HAS TAKEN THE THRONE ALONG WITH WAYNE
DRAKE TEABAGS ME EVERY NIGHT
blank stare….he is not better than any of the artist you named.
No YADIG’s Boyfriend YESSIR. So did you two take turns fucking each other..Get the fuck outta here. Those sales are suspect just like Weezy. But then again this proves that nobody but suburban white kids buy hip hop albums. YMCMB will never have an actual deep lyricist in their camp. Stop Dick riding them so much. Its really sad.
“You aint cool, you wack, with your foolish act,skinny jeans dont mean your ass shoots,its means your booty claps” Joell Ortiz said it best about the skinny jean wearing homo rappers
who is ortiz? never heard of him. does he even have an album? seriously who is he cuz to everyone he is a nobody
you must be another YMCMB cocksucker. Ortiz is in The group,Slaughtahouse. He more lyrically dynamic the drake will ever hope to be.He’s been doing his thing for a long time. Hell he was originally signed to Aftermath before he was a member of slaughtahouse. He got Dr Dre attention and now he is on Shady Records so shut the fuck up.Go listen to your Beiber album, Homo.
Before you say anything. Know your hip hop,bitch.
don’t push your ignorant views on everybody else just because you don’t know who he is..most know who he is.. why u mad? does your booty clap?
no but your mama’s does. I would have responded quicker but I just got done fucking her. Dont be mad cause you know I’m right. Now listen to your daddy now sit down and shut the fuck up
obviously,you dont know who your talking bout sagat. He just told you who Ortiz was. I’m sorry if you Drake/Weezy fans are too illiterate to read. This proves that fans are retarded
yeah but drake not the one he talks about, that was wayne.
drake>wayne
my comment was directed at Anonymous..
and YAWA, mom disses, man. cmon. How old are you? anyone in their right mind would have figured out i was responding to Anonymous and our comments were posted at roughly the same time..im not going to stoop to your level though. peace.

gay people run the world
Who runs the world? Girls and Faggot Ass Rappers..sigh…Hip Hop is dead now.

damn fif when ya gunna let me back
people forgetting bout on me ya heards me
No question the kid is nice and no doubt he gets busy- I’m not talking about him but Ali Lafayette Rhea. One Love
Fuck off
Fuck you dick face!
I must admit that this man has a classic album on deck. I purchased it last night at Target and it was worth every dollar. I had to go to 4 Targets to get it, because the first 3 had sold out, so haters need to chill with that Birdman buying mess.
his song for his mom and her brother (his uncle) made me respect his uncle for not being a racist. drake’s dad needs his ass kicked for not paying child support. that recording of his grandmother talking on the album had me in tears and touched the shit out of me. aubrey, jimmy, drake or whoever you are, you just made a new fan for life.
wow, this really hurts. 700+ I just can’t believe this, take care was not up to the hip hop album standard, may be a good rnb album but definitely not hip hop.
I’m telling you this album was bananas and you need to give this kid some props.
Change bananas to cucumbers and ur right.
i missed the memo stating only hip hop fans could purchase drakes album??
How in the fuck is this guy gonna sell that much, he has no charisma or stage prescence. GARBAGE!
YOU SOUNDING LIKE A TRUE HATER. OBVIOUSLY YOU CARE BECAUSE YOU READING ABOUT HIS LIFESTYLE LOL
lol yea man why u gta hate so hard? I dont love Drake and Take Care aint really that hot, but shit he obv has a massive fanbase and he puttin T.O. on the map. He winnin
This nigga really tried to rap like he from New York. The only way artist can make it these days is try to sound like they from New York City. Wale, Ross, Wayne, J Cole, Drake, Wiz and Big Sean all sound like watered down New York rappers. New York City still winning because they still showing props to where it originated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hip Hop started in the west, Ice Cube bailing thru the east without a vest
L M M F A OFFFFFFFFF!!! ur delusional
dddaaamnnn yo. All you so called hiphop purists can hate on Young Money but they moving the most fuckin units in the Game right now. I think its clear that if Weezy adn Drake did a collabo it would no doubt murk WTT
when u say murk, do u mean in content or sales?
^ well he’s talking about sales so that’s what he meant.
Imma have to admit that I’m a hater, cuz there is no way this can be correct. I think i’m just dying a little inside, b/c of 2 things: 1) I’m starting to feel old, cuz I’m now understanding when my parents use to say to me, “what’s that garbage you are listening to?” and 2) i am starting to realize that hip hop is really dying.
Imma hold my head high though, cuz i’m calling BS on these numbers. somebody lying to us
@yessir do your history on hip hop and come back to me!u must be about 12 years old and probably cudnt quote a line from kane,KRS or G rap!
i guess he won’t get that platinum plaque in his first week like all his stans thought. this is a flop if he doesn’t sell a millie in da first week lmao smh.
Wayne, Nicki, Drizzy all platinum. I wonder how many units BOw Wow is gna move next month lol he’ll ruin the Young MOney momentum if goes less than gold…which he def will
he might crack 100k just off young money buzz. i’ll give him another 50k from his cult female fans from the early 2000s
Projected Drizzy Sales: 675,000 To 725,000
Projected Birdman Buys: 475,000 To 525,00
.
This only confirms that 300,000 more people have converted to an “alternative lifestyle”.
birdmans bought half of them
THEY KNOW THEY KNOW THEY KNOW, THAT I LOVE THAT PIC WIT WEEZY, TOUNGE KISSIN BABY, WISH I COULD HAVE ALL THREE, LET DRAKE PEE ON ME N THEY KNOW,
WEEZY HITN ME FROM BEHIND WHILE I’M SUCKIN BABY AND GETTIN PEE’D ON FROM DRAKE WAY>>>>>>THAN GAY-Z FUCKIN BEYONCE
FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAG!!!!!!!!!
I LICKED IT LIKE A LOLLIPOP
AND IM A HOMO THUG, ALL UP ON THE NUTS, NOW COME AND GIVE ME SOME, LOVE IT WHEN YOU CUM, ALL OVER MY BUTT
Im next to sell 500,0000
No its gonna be me, Im gonna sell like my very first album
THIS SELF PROCLAIMED MEMBER OF DMFF AS HE CALLS IT “THE DICK MOUTH FAIRY FUCKERS” IS A STRAIGHT CLOWN
KAT STACK AINT GOT SHIT ON ME,IVE FUCK MORE MEMBERS OF YOUNG MONEY THEN HER. ALSO THERE IS THIS OTHER BITCH WHO IS CLAIMING TO BE ME ON HERE. IF I FIND YOU, YOURE DONE,BITCH.

LADY GAGA
LIL WAYNE
DRAKE
ALL GAY FRIENDLY ARTIST….
kinda like YADIG aka YESSIR
reading these comments y’all sound angry pathetic and obsessed with gays
I say blame the media and society for that
yeah, both are filled with gays.
Drake does it again…. you mad? DEAL WITH IT OR KILL YOURSELF….Good day haters
I didn’t deal with it or kill myself. You mad?
Another Facebook nigga…Like what real nigga gets a Facebook Acct. major fail lol@U.
lmaoo
“But jealousy is just love and hate at the same time”
True words about this hate blog
I say fuck em, suck my dick! From the back!! With a crazy straw!!! YOU LAZY WHORE!!!!
Goes to show that women are the ones who buy albums
Link? Proof?
pretty much….the niggaz buy what the bitches want….like Pac said
congrats to drake….but this album is rnb so thats why it sold so much….. only 4 hip hop songs, hyfr,underground kings,we’ll be fine,lord knows…the rest is rnb..imagine if he made a complete hip hop album…that would be fuckin dope but now that he sold so much he isnt gonna chane his rnb style for that
At least 8 hip hop songs:
Over My Dead Body
Headlines
Underground Kings
Well be Fine
Lord Knows
Look What Youve Done
HYFR
The Ride
+ Make Me Proud, Buried Alive and the bonus cuts. He ony rhymes on Crew Love. Alot of hip-hop on Take Care
r&b being the reason that it sold doesnt make sense.
How many r&b artists have sold this much in their first week in the past 7years? Ill wait
Album is trash, half a mill stupid mother fuckers just got suckered for their $$$$$. After a couple months they’ll be sick of it.
Answering the question from the dumb fuck who asked what R&B artist has sold this much records in 7 years and the answer is Usher in 2004. That’s 7 years ago…
anonymous you can stop waiting now.
This album sucked, i can’t stand his nasal voice…
dont listen then
eminem fan, aren’t you charles?
ur wearing a gold wang shirt….nuff said. u get no pussy. FOAD. *fuckoffanddie
why cant the dude just have an opinion without yo childish nigga rebuttling everything? why is it ok for you to like but not ok from him to not like it?
I agree with you Charles, unless I think Drake has anal voice, not a nasal one
thats a whole fucking bunch of records for the times.
shittttt, he aint got nothin on my choppa suit, u heard meee?1
i think its so funny how mad all u haters are at drake (and YMCMB in general) clearly if u a hate y are u listening to them?…. clearly u have something in common with them… i would never listen to a rappers song if i didnt like them. hahahaha doin what u cant do!!!
Im not gon starve, Love burgers fried, I got a whopper in the car, and a side of fries
300,000 more homos in the WORLD!? EVERYBODY GET YO STUN GUNS READY CAUSE THESE WAXED EYEBROW MUH FUCKAS BOUT TO TRY AND TAKE YO ANAL VIRGINITY!
Oh no, hide your kids, hide you wife,lol
YMCMB buy copies noone cares, shits boring.
Take care is so far from hip hop it shouldn’t be on this site the pop-monotoned fuck.
this being said, its not a bad album for the genre it fits into and the its perfect for its sale audience (bitches, and youngin’s who wanna be with the bitches)
My friend told me you have to have female problems in order to like Drake. so you nailed it cause I got a girl and I’m happy listening to Joe Budden, J.Cole, Lupe Fiasco,Kanye and Jay Z; but not Drake
It’s to soft and I don’t care about his music or subject matter it’s kiddie pool deep and people preach it like the truth.
Example: my friend was like Thank Me Later is about fame WOOOOOOWW!!! Lupe Ethered fame with one song “Superstar” and I never heard him speak on it again (well the remix closed the casket LOL).
Drake talks about woman troubles listen to Mood Muzik 3 track 11 or 12 I forget. Kanye made a whole cd with baby emotions that was near masterful if you could bare it, cause it was creative. its good for going to sleep though…. I’m Done…..
How much y’all wanna bet that the people hating on drake right now either a) are above 30, b) get no bitches, or c) is wearing something from the 2002 ecko or rocawear collection??? Don’t worry, I’ll wait………………
U look like a faggot brah, real talk. U sound like a bitch too.
And you look like a gay tranny
lmao at the replies
you used “dont worry ill wait” wrong btw… the way you used it didnt make sense.
lol @U worrying abt what niggaz are laced in now get back to viewing Sex in the City.
Damn, looks like I struck a nerve. I MUST have been right lol. My point is, you can almost define a drake hate down to a t. Usually old bitter dudes who are mad they’re favorite rapper isn’t getting the spotlight they want them to, now I’m not the biggest drake fan, but I can recognize a good album when I hear one….
This nigga got me in a fucking coma!
Phil bro, stop sucking my dick.
Since when was calling an album good and pointing out haters sucking dick?? You lames kill me…..It’s sad…
Yall are dumb this album is amazing, probably AOTY. And dont say ima YMCMB D*** Rider, drake is the only one I like on there.
Ps: Lil wayne is garbage.
Wtf does what u listen to have to do with how many bitches u fuckin?? damn some of u are dumb..this is isnt my type of rap hell this is barely rap anyway..not hating on him congrats on the sales but us who enjoy real hip hop, rhyming and strong lyrics aint buying this album
Okay, this is what I don’t get, I really, really dislike Big Sean’s music. Because of that, I don’t even click on links to his news or songs. I would never click on a link about Big Sean and post a comment hating on him. That would just be plain stupid.
If I liked big sean, and I went and listened to a new song by him, and I didn’t like it for some reason, then I would post a comment discussing why I didn’t like the song.
So my question is, why do so many people who don’t like Drake feel the need to post comments hating on him? Do they have nothing better to do than troll HHDX?
Fuck off! Troll
dude its a news site people click stories whether they like the artist or not. have you ever heard of a movie critic that only gives good reviews to movies they like? no, so please dead that whole “then why did you click it” argument. its never made no damn sense.. it just makes you sound oversensitive and unable to handle criticism. people come here to express opinions, no show love to everything. this is not a fanpage its a news page. get over it.
lol.. exactly.. movie critics dont just give good reviews on movies they like.. but guess what?? none of u are music critics. youre just kids on the internet & movie critics arent on movie sites clicking on every topic about a movie they didnt like & bashing it in the comments either.. so you didnt even make a point with that lol..
also.. theres only like 2 or 3 songs on the album that Drake doesnt rap on. So why is everyone so bothered that he sings?? I dont get why kids are like so afraid of hearing someone sing? It’s great music all around so who cares, smh..
i did not no what the nig would sale with them singles but props to drake but its just not what i like to hear
yall be hatin
FOR ALL THE LAMES THAT BOUGHT THIS SHIT…MAKE SURE U CHECK THE LINER NOTES FOR UR R.S.V.P MOIST MEMBERSHIP CARD.
Again HipHopDX this album from Drake is not a defined has Rap so please either change the name to R&BandHipHopDX or know the difference his album is good so I expected that sales however I never believe without physical evidence. But I repeat this is not really Hip Hop news
700k+ ? Wow ! That’s some Eminem Iconic shit. Only Eminem move that type of number legitimately. Big Congrats to Drake !
I second that. 700k is some Em/Gaga/Taylor Swift iconic shit. Those are the only cats still moving legitimate units in the music industry !
^^^finally, some people who fucking get it. respect
I think its funny who dudes cream their pants to Drake’s monotone voice…like how in flying fuck can you get so crunk about an ablum where the dude basically croons says a couple of lines and croons again. But I guess to each’s on. From the new school its all about Big Krit and J. Cole. Those guys are alot more dynamic that than this monotone sissy.
We all know what it is. First week sales don’t count, consistency does. He will definitely sell 700k first week and decline 80% in the second week. The Max he’ll do is 1.5m, just like TML. Em’s Recovery Pushed 100k+ for straight 10weeks, that’s the shit.
I was just ignoring Drake, not hating on him but I tried to get into is shit (no homo) cuz I was curious and now I’m disgusted to see that kind of pop rap moving so many units. I love R&B, but dude you cannot sing, and you rap softer than a baby’s ass
I’ll respect drake more if he admits he is R&B
your not even making no sense at all. wow, people can really see through your anger lol. drake still rich and you still a broke hater.
@ No props.
Agreed.
PEOPLE KEEP SAYING THERE ARE MORE R&B SONGS THAN RAP ON THE ALBUM. THE ALBUM HAS 8 HIP HOP SONGS !!!
STOP SKIPPING OVER TRACKS JUST BECAUSE YOU THINK HE’S GONNA START SINGING.
I don’t care how many songs features Drake singing, he shouldn’t sing at all. Nobody complained when Lauryn Hill or Mos Def was singing, cuz they’re talented at it, in the studio and live. Same goes to Aloe Blacc who should get the Drake sales if 15 year old bitches wasn’t so easily manipulated by the music business
When J.Cole sells 200k first week out of no where and his boss is SEAN FUCKING CARTER, WORTH HALF A BILLION, nobody questions the sales but when two of the biggest mainstream stars in rap sell big numbers its a conspiracy.
you guys had me rolling with the Carter 4 conspiracies but now some of you guys think they buying back on consecutive albums ???
I mean do you guys REALLY believe the shit your typing or is just a way of bashing the artists ?
I’m not into Drake and think CIV is trash but I don’t buy that conspiracy, peeople are actually dumb enough to buy that crap, YMCMB doesn’t need to buy that back. Anyways, Wayne and Drake’s audience is just foolish teenagers, those units mean nothing hip hop wise
Yo ! I mess witt Drakes music cause i know the origin of the place it comes from . hes a back packer that respects little brother Slum Village , a tribe called quest de la soul..but for real .. these numbers are suspect
we all know that j cole numbers didn’t anything to do with fans liking him. It’s kinda of like that movie with Nick Cannon and Christina Milian called “Love Don’t Cost a Thang”. He paid the popular girl to hang out with him and it made him popular. J Cole was featured in Beyonce new video, The Blueprint 3 and Miguel’s album. He opened up on tours for Jay Z, Drake and Rihanna. He had a sex tape rumor about him and Rihanna. He had features on his debut album from Jay Z, Trey Songz, Missy Elliot and Drake. He had an expensive Paula Abdul sample as well. Fake popularity lol.
Congrats Drake!!!!!
THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST SADE ALBUM I HAVE EVER HEARD
Yeah that joke hasn’t been used before..
you just failed on that one. lil buddy. your girlfriend must love drake or you’re a girl who got dissed by drake.
YOUNG MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLAH BABY!!!!
WE DA BIZZNE$$!!! DRIZZY U GOT EM!!
YOUNG MONEY ON TOP BABY!! WE KILLEN THESE NIGGA$!!
@YADIG: everyone knows that you are a fake Lil Wayne/Young Money fan, who thinks your overexertion their popularity, will turn the public against them. Haven’t you figured it out yet, that you need more people cuz know one believes you.
The new form of hate is acting like you really like an artist, but going overboard unnaturally.
@yadig….ag fuck tu!ma feicthe riamh me leat go pearsanta ba mhaith liom bualadh leis an saol la ina gconai as tu!piosa tu de cac!
PEOPLE THAT WORRY ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE HATING, ARE GIVING THE HATERS ALL THE POWER.
STUPID FUCKS!
DRAKE’S A FAG!
Actually it’s just calling a spade a spade. Haters have no power at all. If they had any power, Drake would only be selling 45,000 copies. Nice try hater lol.
Alot of haters like to read and comment on true players. Haters give all the power to true players, because with haters, true players would be nothing.
NUMBERS LOOK SUSPECT.
LOL… Is that you Fif?
the album is dope, better than the 1st so thats always good…i bought both and i dont give a fuck about drakes numbers. lets just all support good music…
Still a garbage album.
Essentially, its a RNB album of love songs.
I think it’s a solid album – I can bang girls to it.
What I don’t get is……..
– wtf were you faggots expecting from Drake>?
It’s the Drake!! The soft emo rapper from the the other two albums.
When I want real spitting, hood tales and weed anthems – I don’t buy a fucking Drake CD!!! LMAFO!! What do want from this guy!
Haters chill. Stans get a life.
Amen
It all depends on what a person likes in music, which leads to for example a group of people may like artists like DMX, 2Pac, Biggie, Jay-Z, Busta Rhymes, Outkast, etc., another group may like Drake, Lil Wayne, Wiz Khalifa, Wale, etc., and some people may like both. Personally, I would fit into the last group because even though I like mostly 90’s and early 00’s hip-hop and r&b music, there are a few artists of today that I’d listen to. The main problem I have with some artists of today is that they don’t show no respect to the artists that came before them and act as if they are the orignators/inventors of hip-hop and r&b. In my opinion, Drake’s wordplay in rapping is copied from previous artists before his time, he just add his personality and style to it like other artists of today are doing. Believe it or not, he’s doing the same thing in his singing but most people are just paying attention to his rapping. After hearing and seeing posts about people trying to figure out what type of artist Drake is, I see why most people are clueless because actually there have been artists and still are artists who are multitalented but in my opinion, most of them may have been in an r&b boy/man group with 1 or 2 rappers consisted in the group and you know usually the member that has the most shine or star power will break into the solo scene. Think of groups like B2K, IMX/Immature, Mista, New Edition, Playa, Jodeci, etc. they actually in a way may influenced his r&b style.
THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST SUSAN BOYLE ALBUM I HAVE EVER HEARD
why do people enjoy this type of music so much?? i just don’t get it…i really don’t. everything drake does just sounds gay..literally. just has a super queer vibe to it. he has a funny voice and his music honestly is so mediocre. girls just jump on pop shit though i guess.
It’s this fuckin new generation. the suck ballz and have no respect for the art.
i’m hearing all of the jokes, i know that they tryna push me
i know that showin’ emotion don’t ever mean i’m a pussy
know that i don’t make music for niggas who don’t get pussy
so those are the ones i count on to diss me or overlook me
if the only type of music you listen to is hip hop you should just shut the fuck up. but if you can appreciate other genres then why not jam this? its funny how he never rap about gay things yet you suspect closet muhfuckers get on here saying the gayest shit. i guess this is the only place you can express your homosexuality behind a computer screen. fags
Man, you have a major point and I agree.
So everyone is entitled to their own opoion I understand that. But what fucks me up is these cats who are jumping in to slash a man down for his craft. If you dont like Drake then why listen to his music or take the time out of your life to even comment. Yall wanna call this man gay and say he has no talent. I think yall got some underlying issues tucked away in a closet or something. Drake do you padna!!!!
