Drake “Thank Me Later”
Standouts - “Fireworks,” “Miss Me,” “Over,” “Show Me A Good Time”

After the release of a mixtape that created a bidding war between several record labels, Canadian-born rapper Drake finally blesses us with his highly anticipated “Thank Me Later.” As a whole, “Thank Me Later” plays more like an experience than a CD. It seems as if Drake wanted the listener to take part of the crazy world that has become his life. For a hip-hop CD it’s decidedly mellow, which is what makes it worth checking out.
