“I like a woman with a future & a past…”

If you haven’t broken down what makes Drake’s appeal to women so profound, it’s lines like those above that resonate. He consoles, he’s the shoulder you lean on when feeling bad. The sort of lovable child actor turned drugged out rapper obsessed with the consequences of fame. The 90s synergy found on “Make Me Proud” makes the third collaboration between Young Money’s two cash bearers without dreads tailor made for yearbook moments and lyrics for the youngsters who haven’t quite developed their own game yet. Nicki makes breast references, T-Minus gets a bit Timbaland-like without the skittering sound effects, and Drake is Drake without the white cups, a profane guy next door who wishes you all the best.
