#DRAKE THANK ME LATER ALBUM CREDITS FULL#

(The second verse is also about his relationship with Rihanna, if any of you two care about gossip.) “Fireworks” also boasts a complete waste of a cameo from Alicia Keys, whose role on here could have truly been performed by anybody, up to and including an Auto-Tuned Max. While Aubrey still thrives in this environment (for now, anyway – I still have thirteen tracks to go, mind you), listeners are left in the uniquely awkward position of witnessing a man complain about his success when, technically, he hasn't actually seen any sort of reward from his new career choice just yet. So it turns out that I'm already wrong: apparently Universal has no problem with Drake filling Thank Me Later with a similar lo-fi spectacle that permeated So Far Gone. My wrists are tired at the moment, so I'm going to skip straight to the review, if you don't mind. Also, I briefly mentioned on my Twitter account the other day that every review of Drake's output (this would be the fourth such write-up) seems to garner more commentary than most of the underground and unknown artists: you two hold the power in your hands to guide the direction of HHID. Thank Me Later will sell tons of copies, sure (although not as many as the industry seems to believe - once again, Drake's fan following is made up of people that downloaded all of his other shit thus far), but that doesn't mean the entire album will suck: there might be a few throwaway gems on here that you two should know about. As I've mentioned in the past, I won't ignore today's commercial output simply because it's popular and mostly crappy: in fact, with the exception being Soulja Boy Tell 'Em, I won't automatically dismiss any artist out there. None of this backstory matters, though, because all you two are concerned about is why Hip Hop Isn't Dead would devote space to the continuing exploits of Aubrey Graham anyway. (Even with it being readily available, I chose to wait until it actually found its way to store shelves, and even then I didn't actually buy it: I'm basing this write-up on a borrowed copy from a friend and inexplicable Drake fan.)

It's a gamble that his new label home, Universal, hopes will pay off, and Drake has played his role as the employee of the month very well, promoting the shit out of Thank Me Later even after it leaked to the Interweb a full two weeks before its actual release date. With his debut album, the artist currently known as Drake hopes to build upon his large following with a musical experience that, hopefully, people will actually pay for, a tough proposition when you realize that all of his albums thus far have been freebies given away on blogs as if they were candy on Halloween. Terrible album cover aside, Aubrey Graham's Thank Me Later is one of the most highly anticipated hip hop albums of the summer.
