#Drake views album download free itunes how to#
Stand-out lyric: “I don’t know how to talk to you / I just know I found myself getting lost with you / Lately you just make me work too hard for you / Got me on flights overseas, and I still can’t get across to you” And with every song about a relationship that didn’t work or a woman who wronged him, I get even more psyched to listen to his music a few years down the road when he’s had time to grow up - or at least gotten even more perspective. The thing is, reading into his lyrics, we know he’s capable of love, but his idea of it has been warped by fame and reality he’s currently living. Also, as previously mentioned, she’s on the album - and if she betrayed Drake by talking about him or spilling the beans, Views would just be the sound effects of Drizzy sobbing in the shower like Tobias in Arrested Development.Īnyway! This is about Drake’s relationship expectations versus the reality in which his girlfriends and/or love interests find themselves. Is it about Rihanna? Oh I’m sorry, would Rihanna tell someone’s story? Absolutely not. Stand-out lyric: “But you can’t just diss and come tell me sorry / You can’t listen to me talk and go tell my story” Seasonal effect: Summer! (It sounded like summer in the city, okay?) But this time, there’s no AC Slater to help pull him out of it. He asks for more time, he’s alluding to having tried his best, and then in the fourth verse, he stops addressing this particular person and admits he’s not in a position to deal with commitment as if doing a Zack Morris time-out and breaking the fourth wall. So this gets a solid, “Oh boy - Drizzy fucked up, and this explains the Sad Drake™ memes.”īut this track is also bummer city in a general sense: dude takes up with someone, he tries and fails to navigate his thoughts and feelings in an authentic way, and he addresses his subject as if they’re having a chat. I mean, hi: Drake and Rihanna were once together, and it obviously didn’t work out, and girlfriend is the definition of an independent woman. Is it about Rihanna? She might be here, my sweet, sweet treasures.
Stand-out lyric: “Why do I settle for women that force me to pick up the pieces? / Why do I want an independent woman to feel like she needs me? / I lost my way” Just '6ix God,' if you’re listening, please don’t let this be about Nicki. (Was it you?) And their choosing of a particular side (read: Meek Mill’s, probably) hurt our dear precious Aubrey who clearly has only a few female friends since he just admitted that things with his exes don’t necessarily end well.
No, what this song points to is a friendship failure on par with the plot of a Shakespearean play. Rihanna would never betray Drake because Rihanna is Queen and/or a god. Drake and Rihanna are the type of best friends I believe in my heart Monica and Chandler started out as before confessing their undying love in that one Friends episode. She’s onstage dancing and performing with him. Considering this is a song about complete and utter betrayal (or just making Drake mad - who can be sure), we know it takes Rihanna out of the mix. Stand-out lyric: “All of my ‘let’s just be friends’ are friends I don’t have anymore / Guess that’s why they say you need family for” Which is how we justified combing through each track on Views and trying to find Rihanna somewhere.

The world of Rihanna, our best friend.īecause while we know they’re not really together and we know they’re just friends and we’ve accepted that they’re total professionals, we still choose to dream of a reality in which Drake and Rihanna channel a Nora Ephron movie and find love in a hopeful place. Some of us need to delve deeper into cultural contexts to use Aubrey’s carefully-written lyrics as a gateway into a world we have no real access to a world we have no real business approaching.
