Drake: "Thank Me Later"


The highly anticipated, first studio album from the overnight sensation Drake could be everything and more for listeners or it could be viewed as a big disappointment -- thus making the name "Thank Me Later" completely apropos.

Thank Me Later feels like Drake's autobiography of how his fame and success have changed his life for the better and for the worse over the last year and a half.

The first song on the album, "Fireworks," starts off with the line, "Money just changed everything, I wonder how life without it would go."

Those that are looking for the mixtape feel of "So Far Gone" or some of the harder, rougher collaborations that Drake has been featured on in the last year and a half, are going to be highly disappointed.

This album is exactly what it means to be for Drake -- his first "Studio" album.

Thank Me Later will be catergorized into Hip Hop or R&B because the general public feels the need to put each musical album into their own category.
