Drake Reveals Three Take Care Tracks In Rolling Stone
You can check out more here, but an excerpt is below:
He cues up several tracks in various states of completion, all of which sit squarely in the sparse, somber register that’s become his trademark. “Shot for Me,†the likely album opener, is a marvel of melancholy bravado: He sings “Bitch, I’m the man†in a moan that undercuts the brag, over a beat (courtesy of Shebib) that pairs aching synthesizer notes with an exhilarating barrage of high-hats. Other highlights include “Free Spirit,†featuring Rick Ross and the refrain “Tat my name on you so I know it’s real,†and “The Real Her,†a narcotically woozy love song with detuned pianos and a Lil Wayne guest spot. Drake is also looking forward to collaborating with Abel Tesfaye, a.k.a. buzzy R&B gloomster the Weeknd — and, if he gets his wish, veteran beatsmith DJ Premier, Florence and the Machine’s Florence Welch, and the xx’s Jamie Smith. “No matter who’s on it, it goes through the Drake filter,†Shebib says. “He’s so hands-on about how everything sounds.â€

Take it away Jeff R.
I couldn’t get a good read on the demographic. Sure, there were the girls in loud outfits, dying to look interesting; there were the boys in bar mitzvah rave glasses and flimsy tank tops. By the bar, though, I talked to an unshaven average guy from Mount Vernon who had won tickets through an XXL contest. He had heard about the giveaway through Action Bronson’s Twitter. Curiosity knows no bounds, apparently.
