The second portion of this song encapsulates everything I and many have come to appreciate about "old" drake. The bodacious, yet melchonic instrumental with the very personal yet methodical melody and lyrics. The idenity is almost identical with "Days in the East" specifically, the second portion. Although this is my very favorite "era" of drake, I still appreciate a lot of the new sound the new album brings and enjoy listening to it. It's very interesting because this sound is so distinct in Drake's history that no matter what else he may bring to the table I will always resonate with this "version" of Drake ten fold.
I agree 100%, this song gives me Drake vibes from the “Thank me Later” to “NWTS” era. That was his golden era to me. I do think he has dropped some great singles and albums since then but not many have captured the essence of almost being 2 songs in one. The transitions from the “hip-hop bars” into the melodic R&B type beats is what makes a “Drake song” a classic for me and this is it without a doubt.
interesting how the original song was called Not Around (which is literally the hook) but he landed on TSU and didn’t even mention the school at all this man loves his Texas / Houston women lol
"What's up to all the ladies on the north side, south side, east side, west side? What's up in Bay City? What's up to all the ladies in Louisiana? What's up to all the ladies in Dallas, Austin, San Antonio? Marshall, Prairie View, it's going down Wharton County, Texas City, H-Town, baby TSU ladies"
this beat got such a nostalgic feel to it.
kinda like Molly and Lean 4 Real by Carti
Frfr
sounds like not you too from dark lemo tapes
Probably because of the *NSYNC sample
Samples Nsync that’s prolly why
The best feeling in the world is when your favorite artist actually drops a leaked song🔥😊
FAX
Playboi carti should take notes
Prodigy M nobody listens to that trash bro lmao
And made it even more crazier
I was so excited when I heard it on the album
MY FAV SONG FROM THE ALBUM
Same.
best of clb
Same
@@tamou. race my mind, pipe down, only live twice, 7am on bridle path, fair trade, and no friends in the industry are all contenders
@@leultrainstinct406 3/4 of the album are bangers
You the goat for removing the intro bro... shit was long af LOL
Hell yea
Amen
Lowkey ruins the whole song tbh
wordd
He added that in cuz he knew it was leaked, trippie did the same thing and had the song edited in miss the rage cuz he knew it was leaked
3:29 that part hits me so hard. Neither of our pasts bout to go away, you made me forget about it anyway… Old Drake vibes.
Thats really that old drake singing/sound. Same with the part that he left out on Love All. He needs to get back on it man
Yesss! My favorite part of the song!
the perfect gif too ahhhh
Wattles is here 🔥🔥
name of this gif?
does the gif have a name?
2:44 hits DIFFERENT
as a die hard kendrick fan, the beef ain’t make me forget drake made bangers like this
By far one of my favs. I've always been attracted to mystery-esque vibe instrumentals.
would’ve been my favourite song off the album if it literally wasn’t leaked over a year ago💀
Ong 😭😭
thats why u dont listen to leaks
My fav song. Just now hearing this
It's still my favorite song after leaks. How does listening to it early ruin it? 💀
Lol why would that matter
i know this as "NOT AROUND" the real know 💯
Ok?! I fell OUT when I heard it on the album
I lost my SHIT when this was still on the album, he held his word to the leak 😭
Right I saved a leaked snippet of it and was like when the hell was this coming out about time😂🥴
