Son ain't giving up. It did have a calm R&B feel to it. I guess if that's what some people want to call dark so be it. When I think about dark albums I think about DMX's stuff or some old 3-6.

I think what he means by "dark" is atmospheric, aural, kinda sonically somber stuff, which it was.
You guys are just arguing over what your definition of the word "dark" is. Some of you mean it to be literally rapping about devil worship, murder, and drugs, and some of you (Ginfante) means stuff that sounds like night time -- slow, understated, etc.
You're both right. A lot of the topics were bright and happy, but there's no question songs like Marvin's room are sonically dark.

Didn't literally mean a few days. It dropped like November 1st, 2 weeks before the album which is why it was a bonus track.
However, that has nothing to do with the fact that Take Care is labeled as a "dark" album when in actuality it isn't.

The topics are the usual Drake stuff but the atmosphere of the album is dark, at least to me.

I can see how some songs could be perceived to be dark. Good ones Go, Marvin's Room, Shot for Me, The Real Her, Cameras, DMCB, and a few others and you aren't alone. A lot of people feel the same way as you in regards to Take Care.
However, for me, it's unfairly cited as a dark, sad, and soft album.

I don't think there's a single person in here would was referring to dark as murder, drugs, and the devil this is Drake we're talking about here.

I would say 5am in Dallas is more dark than anything on TC
Now if the whole album was that type of vibe now we talking

I was talking more about their production. To give another example Kid Cudi's MOTM 2 is dark, the production on Take Care is not dark IMO.

Is 808s and Yeezus considered dark?

"Yeezus" is. It's a prime example of sonically dark production.
So is "Mysterious Phonk," "House of Balloons," "Downward Spiral," etc.

Motto was for Tyga as a favor for some dude name Wong's boyfriend Jamal.The Motto was recorded like 3 days before the album came out, not really a good indication
In return, Jamal let Drake live in his penthouse condo/residence in one the Vegas casinos for two weeks.
And drive his white Maybach around and bang his porn star "escorts". Jamal used to be pimp out girls and move h allegedly
