This album was originally released as a free, promotional mixtape. This version of the album is much shorter. Please don't waste you money on this and just download it for free from datpiff.

4.0 out of 5 stars good album, Drake has real potential, June 8, 2011

I got into Drake a lot later than most people. Sure, I heard his songs on the radio and I thought they were pretty good, but it wasn't until I heard Thank Me Later that I became a true fan of Drake. So Far Gone has a different feel to it though, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. What I like about Drake is that he's not a stereotypical rapper from the hood that raps about being a gangster and all that. He grew up in a wealthy household in the suburbs and he doesn't try to act like he's anything else. His songs bring a different feel and story to them that is rare to find in rappers today. I really like all the songs on the album (though I did have to grow to like Uptown) except for Houstatlantavegas and the Calm, which weren't bad songs, i just wouldn't have them on repeat. Great start though and I hope to see more from Drake in upcoming years.

I have been following Drake (Jimmy) since Degrassi. I thought that he was talented and a great actor and was destined for greatness. I then learned that he was a lyricist. I thought, oh no, here we go again. Here we go with another Nickelodeon person who thinks they can be successful releasing music. Then I heard "Best I Ever Had" and I hated it at first. I was thinking, what in the world was he thinking and he could have been recording another episode of Degrassi instead of this crap. But as I continued to listen I found myself singing it randomly during the day. I was laughing to myself because I knew I hated the song and now I cannot get enough of it. Then "So Far Gone" came out and it all fell into place for me. I enjoyed every track and could not wait for his next release. My ratings of this album is as follows:

1. Houstatlantavegas: 3/5. This was a little more out of my style of liking than usual but good to listen to on occassion. Just not on repeat for me.

2. Successful: 4/5. This was a great one but I think I like the version on Trey Songz album more.

3. Best I Ever Had: 5/5. This song crept up on me and now I listen to this daily

4. Uptown: 2/5. Was not one of my favorites by a long stretch.

5. I'm Goin' In: 5/5. Was a great track. Maybe not radio friendly but this was a dope track!

6. The Calm: 4/5. Good song

7. Fear: 5/5. I related to this song so much it is eerie. "And my uncle ain't even messaging me. And him missing in my life is kinda messing with me. I hope this isn't one of those forever things. It's funny how money can change everything." Touched a personal cord with me.

All in all, this is worth every penny of your money so I hope you give it a listen!
