@slykchyk086 black mixed wat da difference not 2 b rude but all da time im constantly readin comments talkin bout race so annoying im black n white wat da big deal bout color n race so ignorant smh
@BraynesNbeauty im not tryna be ignorant, im just sayin.. bc what if he said "when im talented and white" like would that sound weird? im jus sayin...he's mixed
@slykchyk086 i feel where u comin from im just sayin why focus on race n it seem like ur offended cause he said black instead of white maybe dat jus how he feel dat is his choice n maybe he feel like he get judged because he not all white im mixed f so i can relate cause blac people accept me but honestly alotta white people look at me a certain way cause i mixed wit black i just had a altercation at a local bar n my neighborhd cause of it so please dont comment on smethng u knw nuttin bout
@BraynesNbeauty im not offended that he said black instead of white.. im neither black or white, but im just saying when he said that it sounded kind of weird bc im a huge fan of his and in interviews he always stresses the fact that he's jewish so when i heard him say black it just sounded weird a little. i completely understand were ur coming from tho..
Drake did it good, but i did it gr8. not knockin drake but seems like errbody on drake dick, so im givin him a br8k and pullin out mine 4 ya'll... no homo, lol, come listen!!!!!!!
PLEASE!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!! watch my video to this beat....its COLD!!!!!! i promise u wont be wasting your time......jus click on my name and go to the first video wit the light skin nigga in it LOL....its raw doe...check it out...or jus type in "armani425zz" and its gonna be a video that says somethin like "Snipa - Poker Face (drake closer instrumental" please check it out...jus tryna get more fame so ppl can see one of my true talents......
..and before silly ignorant individuals start spraying the word "hater" all over this page consider if another artist took the beat from you the best and had some other guy on the hook and put it out like it was theres... all of you would be pissed off and knockin that individual left and right : /
this is some bull shit...This is not their song...this is so utterly disrespect to Goapele and to the business itself. Who the fuck is andreena mills and where do her and drake get off taking credit for Goapele song, both the beat and the lyrics? Wheres the honor in that?
its called a mixed tape sweetheart artist remix and do there own rendition of their songs...i understand i love goapele's original but its just a song of a mixtape! c:
No no no darling its called respect... a mixed tape traditionally consists of a beat owned by one artist but used by another... not taking ones lyrical content as well
They used her hook
for those who have never heard of Goapele there is an automatic assumption made that this is drake and andreenas joint...and they know that... pitiful
I totally agreed. When I heard this song I immediately deleted it because they disrespected Goapele to the fullest. It's one thing when he used 9th wonders beat on "Think Good Thoughts" but this is insane. 9th Wonder didnt even copyright the beat because he never got it cleared from Anita Baker
well its seem u understand tht its a mixtape bt there is sumthin wrong wit wat u said. they dnt use other's hooks. uuuhhh yea they do about 70% or 80% of mixtapes i heard has the same hook and many sung or did there own hook to add there style on it. damn stop takin it so strongly. is the real artist of this song saying anything ...... didnt hear it so intill she wrrys bout her own, u shuldnt for her nuff said
this is my song love this and and almost to my dream thanx drake for making this song and u are my role model for my dreams and i have 5 ore years untill tht
Drake good at listen to the track, a basing what he says off, what the track asks for. Like where he talking as if this is the last song playing at the club or concert or whatever. Hes just clever. and his vocals always sound like hes too comfortable with whatever beat hes on.
im starting to get really and truely speechless about Drake....all of his songs are so deep and they all tell a story its really crazy how raw this dude is....love em
track was sampled by goapele, closer... which was featured on the movie "honey" w/ jessica alba. you cant truly appreciate up and coming artist now unless you understand and respect the artist that inspired them... word
this ni99a inspires, its crazy how he's blowing up... He said, "I been Urkel for years,its been betta being Jaleel"... Jaleel White acted as urkel in Family Matters, but played himself when he was Stephan on the show...haha
