New Song: Drake – ‘Take Care (Ft. Rihanna)’

Written by Trent | Filed under Drake,Rihanna

An unexpected yet highly probable disaster has happened to Drake – his entire ‘Take Care’ album has leaked ahead of schedule. However, one song in particular captured the attention of his fans and that was the title song, which Rihanna.

‘Take Care’ will officially arrive in stores on November 15th. The record will include the an appearance from Nicki Minaj on the current single, ‘Make Me Proud’, as well as contributions from Rick Ross, The Weeknd and Andre 3000.

Listen to ‘Take Care (Ft. Rihanna)’ below:

The key quality of this record was the production, which was a mix of mellow House music and R&B. Although the thumping drum beats sound strangely similar to Kanye West’s ‘Lost in the World’, Drake tone gave the song a unique vibe.

Still, Rihanna’s inclusion on the record was quite perplexing. Clearly, her name was simply used as a tool to pad the billing of the album with more star power because her shaky lower register and whiny tone did nothing to improve the record.

   Rihanna’s fans always get mad when someone speaks the truth… Rihanna can’t sing nor dance write or produce. Sooo what’s her job… TO LOOK PRETTY that’s it.

    The best part of the song is the house break down. I listen from 3:16-3:47 and that’s it.

    Trent is not hating, he’s telling the truth. She adds nothing to the song.
