Drake: Take Care Album Review

Artist Drake’s sophomore album Take Care released on November 15. With all of the momentum of his debut album “Thank me Later” as well as multiple features on songs with other top artists, Take Care had a lot of expectancy weighing on it. The album was originally scheduled to release on Drake’s birthday, October 24. Only a few weeks earlier it was forced to be pushed back. So was Take Care worth the wait? 17 tracks and a dropped jaw later I have an answer. Yes, Take Care is well worth the wait. Each song the rhythm is changed as he uses little consistency in his beats. Drake changes up his style every track switching from singing to rapping with ease. He appeals to more than one audience.
 Drake makes music for those hardcore rap fans with songs like “Underground Kings” and “Lord Knows” where he flows non-stop and shows he is a true lyricist.  On the other side of things if you are a fan of R& B Drake has songs like “Marvin’s Room” and "The Real Her". Alot of the CD he switches mid song from rap to singing and vice versa. Thank me later was good but Drake is clearly maturing as an artist and is showing it in his music. Take Care is well worth adding to the collection and will be a good listen for months to come.
