Drake has given a late birthday present to himself and all of his fans–three new tracks.
“Heat Of The Moment” has a smooth instrumental that was meant for Drake’s vocals. October’s Very Own” sings about living in the moment while simultaneously pointing out the importance of retrospective thinking.
Drake’s track “6 God” is remnant of “Trophies” at it opens, but it definitely stands on its own. “6 God” could easily be renamed “My Eg0.” On the track Drake talks about selling Bentleys, how he dominates the rap game and asserts that he’s the “6 God.” Guess we know what his latest tattoos mean now.
Regardless of how egoistical Drake presents himself on this one, there are some lyrical gems.
Drake balances out “6 God” with “How About Now,” a humbling reflective track.
“How About Now” originally hit the web a week ago Drake parallels others doubts about him with his present state of success. He also comments on being under appreciated and being weary of those people only out to benefit themselves as he spits over a soulful yet subtle beat with a kick drum and background vocals. Takeaway here-never underestimate.
If listened to separately the songs may appear to have nothing do with each other. But if they are listened to consecutively a parallel definitely emerges. “Heat Of The Moment” talks about being in the now and calling it how you see it, while at the same time being able to step away from that and look at the big picture. “6 God” represents the first point and “How About Now” is symbolic of the last.
