Drake - Free Spirit (ft. Rick Ross)

[@weedstories]

Summer '11... never forget.

[@BJSaxMan93]

One of Drake's more underrated tracks

[@asapktammg5582]

18 million views is underrated?

[@BJSaxMan93]

asapkta mmg When people talk about Drake's best tracks, does this ever get mentioned? Hardly, because this track is easy to forget since it wasn't included in Take Care and never got played on the radio.

[@blackmamba1809]

BJean93 preach this has to be one of drakes forgotten but best tracks

[@DeezyDre]

asapkta mmg 18 mill views on a drake vid aint shit lol..

[@manchu7051]

asapkta mmg look on DrakeVEVO all of his songs get well over 10 mill views

[@ragu1daboss]

Take a min to appreciate this beat..40 killed the production on this..still one of the best producers in the game.

[@Thricejimmy]

The production on this song was INSANE.

[@BabyKobeeee]

OVO has a majority of the best producers right now. 40, PARTYNEXTDOOR and Boi-1da are the best right now

[@ragu1daboss]

I wish OVO signed Metro Boomin.

[@vonderekcasteel4859]

This beat was sampled from Sade/ I will be your friend

[@kaiyinmarcel]

Drake was in search of his pinnacle lyrically around this time. His passion, confidence, and genuine artistry with his usage of words showed ambition and described a hunger for more success. Drake was similar to Julius Caesar with his conquest.

[@tayottt]

If Drake/40 couldn't clear the Sade sample they should've interpolated and released this as a single. Too good to be unavailable on platforms like Spotify.

[@seanstroman6087]

So that's why it didn't make the album always wondered why

[@thatonepimp69]

smooth operator ??

[@tayottt]

thatonepimp69 Close. On the same "Diamond Life" album. It's the opening to the track "I will be your friend." 40 killed it with this beat. Incredible job of sampling. It's just too bad it's not a single.

[@lhernandez8204]

totally agree man I was just looking on spotify

[@ericvillaz6164]

its on spotify

[@darealheisman6505]

The year is 2011. Drake announced Take Care and killed the whole summer. School had just started back up. I had just broke up with a girl and I was chasing another, getting together right after Take Care dropped and that was our album. Drake has the ability to take you back in time with his music. That’s one of the things that makes him a legend.

[@bigmillionare]

aubrey would have found a way. He's been popping since 06 and 40 really hit his groove in 11.

[@marcuspfitness6120]

[@blueboy1394]

Thomas Darya facts

[@dickridinhater7816]

Mediocre rapper and a little below average singer with mediocre ghostwriters and good producers. Does not make him the "greatest." He's the definition of average but you guys just love his tone and beats so damn much, that you can't see the obvious smh. This guy knows how to make catchy music without question but the talent is no where on par with the greats you drake fans compare him to on a talent based level. Just like Rick Ross fans, they can't see passed his tone and beats and get to the content, stories, lyrical ability, which isn't good or great but very mediocre to poor when you dissect their rhymes. Both are very mediocre rappers who can make catchy music and that's about it. Also, not every song that gets stuck in your head means it's a good song even if the beat is great and that's the main problem I have with Drake and Ross fans. Both Drake and Rick Ross don't have a definitive classic album for a reason. They are mediocre rappers with poor or weak concepts and content, with filler lines and songs but y'all eat it up everytime. Their mediocre at best and their discographies are pretty weak as well.

[@98Supremee]

take care isn't a classic album? Judging by your name I'm assuming you're a troll who has way to much free time on his hands

false, he's still the best in it and not changing anytime soon.... You just expect too much from him, the man been going 6 years+ straight, now he gotta appeal to larger audiences; its called longevity !!!

[@altowlee33]

Views was a break from the typical Drake we've seen, definitely very pop in its nuances & some of its production etc. But watch interviews of Drake from 2008- all the way to now. And what he says is still and who he is is still the same. He is a rapper. I have a good feeling that the next record he releases will be some solid rap. 4pm in Calabasas came out in the summer, and that is def a rap song. Not typical of past Drake per se, but it is definitely rap, not pop.

[@bryce3721]
