A new generation of charismatic street performers portraying success and loneliness
The sophisticated production and introspective lyrics set a new standard for modern hip-hop.
Drake's long-awaited full-length album perfectly establishes his style of seamlessly switching between singing and rapping. As the title suggests, "Thank Me Later" is a stark, down-to-earth account of the momentary spark of success and the struggles that lie behind it.
