Soooo Far Gone!

76,000 album downloads in it's first five days of release.

ok, yeeeeah...COMPLETELY procrastinating on my real homework, so i'm doing my self assigned homework, listening to DRAKE'S So Far Gone. now, i've been an aubrey graham fan since the degrassi days. (shout out to my little CoCo Puff) i actually remember when he was off the show for a while in an effort to pursue his music career lol (that's why he got shot). but i'm not gonna lie, i was not tryna support him leaving the show, so i was hesitant to try to enjoy his music. but his music is good, i did in fact, enjoy it. then all of a sudden, out of NOWHERE this cat blew up, and everyone's loving him, waiting for him to release music, fantasizing about sexing him, reciting his lyrics, calling him one of the greatest lyricists etc., etc.,. and because everyone was on his nuts (along with a few other personal reasons) i stopped caring for his music. i'm not against it, but i literally don't care. apathy. but his first songs were connected some other stuff. i'm tryna mature musically. i'm expanding my horizons and opening myself to more musical opportunities. normally, i just listen to music people send me or artists i know i'm a fan of. but that's playing it too safe. there is soooo much music out there. it's ridiculous. so i got this here So Far Gone. and i'm determined to listen to it, really listen to it though. (i'm listening to it as i write this actually). but when i multi-task with my music listening i dont give these lyricists justice, i focus on the beats. so superficial. i'm done doing that. i wanna really appreciate the music i listen to. and listen to it for more than the melody. i want to hear the stories these artists tell. maybe they'll teach me something or even better, make me feel something i aint never felt before. & right now, i just want to hear Drake spit that realness over some tite beats that's why i'm a fan.
music is my re-developing passion. i let it slip,
slept on some stuff,
but baby,
i'm back.

"i say you the fuckin best. you the fuckin best. you the fuckin best. you the fuckin best. you the best i ever had. best i ever had. best i ever had. best i ever had. i said you the fuckin..."

-Drake (Best I Ever Had) * Drake told me to, so i dedicate this one to my meechka

"leave me, leave me. i cant fucking stand you. wish i had the courage to say everything i planned to. my girlfriend, my girlfriend, call herself my girlfriend. tell me that we 'posed to be together til the world end..but.. i dont really feel that. i just really wanna turn the wheels back. hereareyour sweater and your heels back, convince you that time will heal that. you look for reasons for us to argue. i swear ever ytime i call you, you just tell me how i dont call you. why you do that?"

- Drake (Let's Call It Off)
