“HYFR” - Drake ft. Lil Wayne
I swear, 90 percent of Drake’s appeal comes from his overt corniness. You just can’t be mad at the kid for trying so damn hard to be cool. But I much prefer this side of Drake over that forced emotional “Take Care” Drake. Mazel Tov!
“Sweet Freestyle” - Pusha T
I just love how Pusha quietly comes along and drops a video for this incredible freestyle while Common and Drake are all caught up in their, ahem, “drama.” Gotta love it.
“Work Out” - J. Cole
Man, I really want Cole World to do well, but this really isn’t the right direction. It’s a smooth track and all, but he can do better—especially for a lead single. And I hate to say it, but I think some of Drake’s corniness is rubbing off on him. That shit needs to stop like yesterday.
