That’s not what Abel said though.

That is what he said...he said he gave up half his album. His albums are what 9 songs? 4 tracks is basically half.

Akademiks is the one who started the whole “Weeknd wrote half” because he misquoted(purposely or not) the original Weeknd interview.

"Practice" and "Marvin's Room" automatically disqualify Take Care from classic talk :lol:

Such cringeworthy songs, now.

You don't appreciate practice til you get that slow twerk in a corner of a party by a chick with a phatty.

Song is flames

Marvin’s room a classic

P C H · Nov 15, 2017

Marvin's Room is an all time Drake song, such a GOAT record

TC is cool, as time has passed a lot of the records on it I can do without. I have it as like 4th in Drake's Discography and not a classic.

Can't be too suprised by you saying that, though.

Weeknd might not have written it all...but his DNA is all over that album.

I don't agree with this either.

Take Care is literally the So Far Gone aesthetic, which Weeknd had nothing to do with. If anything, Weeknd and HOB / Trilogy's DNA is Drake & 40 in the first place.

mans said Abel was "featured" on crew love...its Abel's song lol

It's like, peak Drake R&B to me.

It's like a modern, colloquialized' take on the same subject matter that frequented Marvin Gaye, Al Green, Otis Redding, or like Uncle Sam or some ****. All of those guys I love too.

That ghost writing **** did damage to his credibility. It ain't going nowhere.

This makes no sense when Weeknd literally gave him multiple songs lol

Love Take Care
But when Marvin's Room comes on, I just gravitate to that skip button.

Breh what are you talking about :lol:

He gave him 5 songs out of 20. Which is minimal and does not constitute his DNA being all over the album. The Dark, Moody aesthetic was literally there on So Far Gone.

Drake has even said that take care stems from this fictional city of Houstatlantavegas that...is on So Far Gone.

LA Diggler · Nov 15, 2017

Complex: What did you do on “Practice”?

Abel: That whole hook was me. That’s probably the only song I wrote for Take Care. The rest of it was just **** I was going to have for [House of Balloons]. He really wanted to incorporate my sound, which was inspired by his sound. It’s not like, “Oh, I had the ‘new sound.’” It was just easier for him to relate to me, because it was his sound with an edge. It was that Toronto sound. So yeah, you’re right. I feel like I could have been that for his album.

delete1234 · Nov 15, 2017

^ he was lying bro, drake made him lie :lol:

definition of dopeness · Nov 15, 2017

In that same interview they likened him to Cudi and 808s. The consensus is Cudi's influence is all over 808's...even if Cudi is one of Ye's offspring...Cudi still has his own sound. Drake even said he wouldn't have been able to that album without Weeknd. He gave em the blueprint .

that time again to reconfirm all of this

nwts easily number one unless you one of those "i only like rapping drake than it is number 2 album which is"

iyrtitl

The MC revealed to MTV News that the narrative that drives his latest LP was inspired by "Houstatlantavegas," a So Far Gone track produced by 40

http://www.mtv.com/news/1676900/drake-making-take-care/

There's no doubt that XO aided in crafting a few songs on the record, but the entire DNA, feel, and aesthetic of the project was already there and had been there for years before XO even came into the picture. Houstatlantavegas is a concept Drake has worked with since before SFG
