Drake – Marvin’s Room
New leak off of Drake upcoming sophomore album Take Care. Leave it to Drizzy to make drunk dialing ex-girls sound so damn passionate. Dude has had a ridiculous flow and amazing verses on all his latest releases (I’m On One, Wildfire, Dreams Money Can Buy), and this track is no exception.

SBTRKT feat. Drake, Yukimi Nagano – Wildfire (Remix)
Mainstream rap has trended more and more towards electronic beats in recent years, and it was only a matter of time till a big name jumped on a dubstep beat. To be honest, I never heard the original to this track until the remix dropped. It’s too bad it takes a name like Drake to jump on a hot track to get exposure, but he does take the joint to completely different level. I only regret that he didn’t stick around for a second verse.

DJ Khaled feat. Rick Ross, Drake, Lil Wayne – I’m On One
“You n*ggaz on the bench like the bus coming” Been waiting for a track like this to drop. It’s not the usual hyped up track from Khaled, but a hypnotic, haze inspired joint that may produce a contact high. Superstar lineup, but the savior on this one is Drake, as the chorus melts “I’ma sip until I feel it, I’ma smoke until it’s done, I don’t really give a fuck, and my excuse is that I’m young”

Kanye West feat. Lil Wayne, Drake, Big Sean – All of the Lights (Remix)
Yeezy gets an all-star lineup to jump on the remix to the hottest beat of last year… I’m not exactly sure if this is finished (no new Kanye verse??), but it’s definitely worth the listen because Big Sean and Drake both destroy it.
