Take Care is the follow up to Drake’s RIAA Certified Platinum album Thank Me Later, the blockbuster debut
that sold nearly 450,000 copies in its first week after release on June 15,
2010. The album earned Drake
multiple Grammy nominations for Best New Artist, Best Rap Album, Best Rap Solo
Performance for the single ‘Over’ and
Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group for the song ‘Fancy.’
The Canadian-born artist who was raised in Toronto and Memphis
first appeared with Lil Wayne on
2007’s Man of the Year.Drake has received considerable accolades for his talents. Rolling Stone says
that “Drake is in total command
of a style that would have been hard to imagine dominating hip-hop a few years
ago: He's subtle and rueful rather than loud and lively; emotionally
transparent rather than thuggy… one of the wittiest, packing his songs with
clever images and punch lines that land with a snap… even next to guests like
Jay-Z, Young Jeezy, T.I. and Lil Wayne.”
“We are extremely proud of Drake,” says Ronald “Slim”
Williams, Co-CEO of Cash Money Records Group. “Drake is a talented individual and a humble person with a tireless
work ethic who is a crucial part of the Young Money/Cash Money family.”
