Another track from BET Awards and MuchMusic nominee Drake surfaced today, the mournful tune “Unforgettable,” which features both Young Jeezy and Aaliyah. (Yes, that Aaliyah.) Does the song live up to its name? Listen below.
Drake feat. Young Jeezy- “Unforgettable”
We’re not trying to be ironic here, but this Noah “40″ Shebib-produced track is pretty forgettable. Using a sample of Aaliyah’s vocals from her song “At Your Best (You Are Love)” is an inspired choice, but we’re just not feeling this downtempo, somewhat dreary number, despite Jeezy doing his hardest to liven up the place with his growl during his verses.
We’ve heard a handful of the songs on Thank Me Later (which now drops June 15), and although we have a feeling Drizzy fans will eat it up with no complaint, we think Drake will have a hard time getting a broader audience to enjoy his tunes.
What do you think? Will Thank Me Later be Drake’s shining debut, or will it arrive with a whimper instead of a bang?
I think the album will shine in sales and probably reach platinum status, but musically it’s not for everybody considering drake’s mono-tone flows and lackluster song topics.
Basically any-one who is a fan of Drake now will enjoy it. Others will hate on it (and like secretly) either way he’s gonna sell.
his flow is insane his lyrics are on point
He raps about his situation
stop hatin and the haters listen to drake and criticize
solution: shut ur mouth and go listen to waka flocka haters
Drizzy DraKE FADAYYSSS
