Take Care is on the way October 24th!
Wait, this isn't the first single off of Take Care, right? Oh ok, just making sure.
Anyway, this is a pretty decent warm up track for the album (even though I thought that's what Marvin's Room was for). Not great, just good. I'd probably leave it on the chopping room floor if it was my album (or maybe a bonus track), but we'll see if it makes the final cut.

Eminem - Not Afraid (Prod. by Boi-1da)
Alright, alright, its finally here! I don't even NEED to tell you what to do now!
Bravo, bravo! My man from Interscope was definitely right, Eminem KILLED this shit! Every verse was dope, but the 2nd one stood out the most. Em actually admits that Relapse was that great and that he overused that accent everybody hated on it. Wait a minute, a rapper admitting they fucked up musically?? That's really unheard of. I mean, do you think Kanye will at admit he fucked up with 808s & Heartbreak?? No chance. How about Lil Wayne with Rebirth?? Nope! So Em doing that was kind of a first step for Hip-Hop in a way.
Anyway, back to the record. The Boi-1da beat was nothing special. It fit the track, but I wasn't blown away by it by any means. The last minor fault I have with the track is the hook. Emphasis on "minor."Again, it fits the song as well, but it wasn't that great to me. It doesn't hurt the track at all though, so its all good.
Recovery in stores June 22nd!

Drake - Over (Prod. By Boi-1da)
Welp, here it is, the long-awaited first single from Drake's debut album Thank Me Later, which is allegedly coming soon.
Aight, aight, I see you Drake! Not at all what I expected to hear, but I like it. First off, the Boi-1da track is incredible, look for it to become the new "it" beat that everybody raps over over the next few months. (Sorry Fab, There Is No Competition 2 is already out, so you can't delay it for "one more record" anymore. It is funny, and kinda ironic, that the day Fab finally drops that mixtape, a classic beat like this pops up lol.) The lyrics are decent, nothing special, but will do.
Here's the problem with the song though: Its NOT single-worthy. Yes, it is indeed a good song, as we established earlier, but its definitely not a single. In fact, if just about any other rapper dropped this as a single it'd be overlooked and quickly forgotten by mainstream radio. BUT since everybody is so eager to suck Drake's dick, that won't be the case here. That's right, expect to hear this song, and expect to hear it often. I'm not sure for how long, but it will undoubtedly be all over every radio stations for at least the next 2 weeks. Oh, and expect for everyone you encounter to tell you how mind blowing and genius it is along the way.
I ain't mad at Drake though, its not his fault, we do this to everybody who gets super hot. Hell, now-a-days you don't even have to be super hot to get people to overreact like they will over this record. But here's the truth, in actuality, this would probably just be a strong album intro, not a single. Oh well, its not like the album is dropping anytime soon anyway, so there will be another first single sooner or later.

Birdman - More Millie (feat. Drake) (Prod. by Boi 1da)
There was a bit of confusion over whose song this was, but its on Birdman's album tracklisting so I'm going with him.
I can't lie, its hot! Boi 1da killed the beat, and the Drake verses (you know he wrote both of them lol) were good too. Its a good thing they went with Boi 1da over Bangladesh because they probably would've just been rapping over A Millie again lol. Fuck y'all, y'all know that nigga beats be sounded the same now lol.
