Download – Drake – “Fear” [mp3]

“I never cried when Pac died, but I probably will when Hov does. And if my tears hold value, then I will drop one for every single thing he showed us. And I’ll be standing in a puddle.”

I wasn’t completely sold on Drake at first, but I’ve grown to appreciate his talent over the past 6 months. If he wasn’t already cognizant of the the ginormous expectations piled on his fledgling rap career he sure as hell is by now. Here he attempts to dispel some of the misconceptions that accompany stardom, while simultaneously embracing his own fears. It’s both honest and disturbing.

“Fear” is going to be the last song on the retail version of So Far Gone, according to Drake. The last line of the third verse is going to be the first line on his debut album, Thank Me Later.

Listen at your own risk.

    Drake is my favorite rapper. everything he is i can relate to. maybe because his flow comes straight from how he feels. hes too real for some people, but hes just right for me.
