Damn, I was just thinking about this last night. I actually kinda expected this to happen and I think it’s the right decision. Most folks liked what he did on the first single but Drizzy tells MTV he’s pushing back the R&B mixtape for an indefinite period to focus on rap.
“I been rapping a lot lately,” Drake told MTV News. “Me and 40 (Noah Shebib, his producer) have been doing some great rap music, so I sort of took a hiatus on the R&B for a second. It’s cool to do R&B, I love it, but it’s just hard for me to always commit to it. Because some nights, I get in there and 40’s beats, as melodic or R&B-driven as they may be, just have that right pocket that I just wanna spit.”
