Drake - So Far Gone
This has been playing continuously on my ipod / itunes ever since it was released , Drake stepped up his game with this one. The beats on this are euphoric , most of the songs are slow and Drake really out did himself lyric wise.
“In an interview with Complex blog, Drake explains: The whole tape extends from one of my closest friends Oliver. One night we were having a discussion about women and the way we were talking about them, it was so brazen and so disrespectful. He texted me right after we got off the phone and he was like, “Are we becoming the men that our mothers divorced?” That’s really where the cover comes from, too. It’s just this kid in pursuit of love and money. We’re good guys, I’m friends with some real good people and for him to even text me after we got off the phone it just showed we have a conscience. But sometimes you just get so far gone, you get wrapped up in this shit. The title has a lot of meanings—as the way we carry ourselves, the way we dress, the way people view us, not to sound cocky, it’s just that feeling that we’re just distanced in a good way. You’re just elevating past the bullshit and past all the shit that you used to be a part of and you’re not that proud of, you’re just so far gone”
Personally this is one of my all time favourites , and is better than most peoples albums (pretty good concidering this is a free mixtape)
I’d give this a 10/10 just for the fact it hasn’t bored me yet.
Heres the first joint off the mixtape:
