Drake's Third Single

Skittles posted the tagged unmastered version of this song when it was called "All Night Long," at which point I was pretty sure this was nothing more than a throw-away mixtape track. Little did we know this would actually become the third single off of Thank Me Later, featuring Small Dwayne Carter. Here is the mastered CD-quality track:

This was produced by Boi-1da and 40 and it is very obvious which part each of them contributed. I'm more a fan of 40's So Far Gone synth vibe because it is much higher quality. The horn sample goes hard but ultimately doesn't do it for me. Luckily Drake absolutely SLAAAAAAAAAAYS lyrically (we've discussed the "do right and kill everything" line, which I believe is actually one of the best lines written in a very long time).
I've said it before and I'll say it again: people hating on Drake is a pet peeve of mine. Like, he can fucking spit hot hot fire and then croon the hook without batting an eye and it's like REALLY THIS IS A GUY WHO SHOULDN'T BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY!?!?!?!? The man has more talent than anyone. I will admit the Blackberry Freestyle was legitimately the lamest thing I have ever seen in my entire life, but I'm not saying I want to hang out with him on the weekend, I'm just saying stop hating on his music because he's not going anywhere and the music is of the highest quality.

Mmm word download
"Miss Me" - Sooo sick
