After the success of Drake's debut album "Thank Me Later" selling 1.5 million copies and turning the Degrassi actor into a household name, Drizzy has a lot of expectations with his follow up album "Take Care." Already teased with the singles "Marvin's Room" and "Headlines," a lot of people were curious if we'd see the mellow emotional drake or the heavy punch line rapping Toronto native.
Produced mostly by Drake's right hand man Noah "40" Shebib, from the moment the album starts to play, soft chords are played on the synthesizers and accompanied by soft drums to craft an intimate scene for the album.
Drake lyrically starts the album with a little bit of arrogance or "over dosed on confidence" as he points out in the early half of the CD. In the songs "Over My Dead Body" and "Headlines' Drake puts the singing on hold, to express the accomplishments and the situations that he struggles to persevere through thanks to his next level stardom. This is a reoccurring theme in the album, sometimes feeling that Drake possess the need to defend himself or reassure us why he is the star he is.
As the album proceeds, Drake starts to sing and continue his softer spoken than normal rap flows. Singing mostly to or about women, Drake incorporates those familiar drunk dials to our ex's and has no shame of calling out a few specific women that "lost their chance with him." Drake shares the microphone for the next couple of tracks with his fellow Toronto native friend The Weeknd and past love interest pop diva Rihanna, as the theme of love and complications continue.
