Thank you for this album

While at Young Money / Cash Money the last years was left lying on newcomers usually left and came only to guest appearances, it is now good to see that for some time a certain continuity has returned and people like Kevin Rudolf, Jay Sean or even Drake are given the opportunity to realize their musical projects. Aubrey Drake Graham is by no means inexperienced to be in the spotlight, because since the 2001 work of 24 years as an actor before his first musical steps in the form of mixtapes waagte 2006. Last year we were given the part of Young Money / Universal already a considerable taste, the one expressed in the EP "So Far Gone", which "Best I Ever Had" included the singles "Succesfull" and. Since today is finally the long-awaited debut album "Thank Me Later" in stores (US and UK come release early nä. Week). Support for the album, which has among others productions of Swizz Beatz and Boi-1Da, Drake gets by Alicia Keys, Labelmate Nicki Minaj, Swizz Beatz, TI, The Dream, Young Jeezy, Jay Z, and Lil Wayne. Before it now goes in is the album remains to be mentioned that on "Thank Me Later" are represented in the actual sense, none of the previous singles, but you get to hear a "new" album, at least in the US pressure that includes 14 titles, while for Europe "Best I Ever Had" has wrapped up a 15th track again.

The opener makes the wonderful duet of Drake and Alicia Keys called "Fireworks". The intro of the song is aptly represented by a firework which is entertaining supported by piano and then flows into an accompanying mysterious melody, which skillfully with his lyrics branded Drake. In chorus, the two artists harmonize beautifully with their songs and make this first song is already a masterpiece. Next hovers the listener with "karaoke", said Drake sings most of the tracks and the mystical-sounding "The RESSISTANCE" by melodic dream worlds. A blow from the dreamy idyll follows now with the 1st single "Over", which enforces its driving beat, and the oblique and also pitched strings inserts an exclamation point. This is followed by the supple "Show me a good time", which gives the convincing piano melody, the still powerful beat a chilling touch. Drake conflated here formally both vocally and rapmäßig with the instrumental. Finster and with thick bass hums "Up All Nite" from the boxes, where Young Money Nicki Minaj Labelmate is featured. Drake points to this song once again his class and even the usually not exactly outstanding rapping Nicki makes a nice impression of what VA is because the more there are and to better combine their slower beats with her style. Can take a proper Kopfnicker bomb ignites Swizz Beatz and his instrumental to "Fancy", which is the Lord not also equal yet the chorus on this song with help and thus Drake and ATL rapper TI, who is as a further feature here to actively extend the helping hand. Now it's time to sit back, close your eyes and relax, because Drake leads us along with The Dream and the song "Shut it down" on a journey into another world. "Unforgettable" begins its Piano deposits already very thoughtful and this first impression is also the female vocals expanded up but then the Hammer Beat strikes. Drake Flowt like crazy and Young Jeezy shoots the bird then finally, not only because of its appearance in the chorus, but especially his Rappart is simply outstanding. Even New York veteran Jay Z has it can not be missed to make Drizzy on "Thank Me Later" company and it is now the next piece called "Light Up". A dull massive beat, punctuated with a few strands, slightly scary-sounding sound samples offer a tailored basis for Drake and Jay Z to bring this piece to perfection. Of course, Drake's may Cheffe Lil Wayne is not missing and so pop us both the brutal "Miss Me", which, incidentally, is also the 3rd single, front of the bib. With "Cece's Interlude" how to follow it already be seen from the title of an interlude, but which could also be represented as a little more than 2 1/2 minutigen short song that sounds very relaxed. Another stroke of genius is now actually get what a lively atmosphere radiates and puts the most striking points to the exciting instrumental and singing with Drake's "Find Your Love". Finally there will be, in allusion to the album title, the stocked with futuristic Synthes and strings track "Thank me now" and that we should really do, because Drake can only thank you for this super horny album simply. Now still follows as delicacies / Bonus "Best I Ever Had" - for this song you need but nothing more to say, each is likely the black music listening be extensively known.

Drake's debut album "Thank Me Later" has by the many announcements and then again exceeded shifts the high expectations. Genre Technically we are moving here to a mixture of rap and RnB but which mainly finds its Entfalltung in alternatives elements and thus produces a fresh, innovative sound that knows how to impress from start to finish and the handset certainly several days / weeks / months will captivate as BOB with his debut album "The Adventures of Bobby Ray" succeeded z. B. as well.
