Drake - 5AM In Toronto
Artist: Drake
Producer: Boi-1da and Vinylz
Album: TBD
Label: YMCMB/Universal Motown
Early this morning, before most of us had rolled out of bed—or into bed, if you happen to be a night owl—Drake quietly unleashed a new record via his official site. 5AM in Toronto is an unofficial sequel to 9AM in Dallas and, like that pre-Thank Me Later promo cut, it features Aubrey Graham setting aside his “singer” hat in favor of pure, rapped verses. Over Boi-1da and Vinylz synth arpeggios, Drizzy reminds us how big he’s been doing it lately (as if we could forget) and skewers peers who have been keeping it less than one-hundred: “I could load every gun with bullets that fired backwards / Probably wouldn’t lose a single rapper.” 5AM isn’t part of any larger project, but fans can, of course, watch our front page for further details on currently-unscheduled junior set Nothing Was the Same, featuring hit lead single Started From the Bottom.

Drizzy doesn't hit us with the "straight bars, no hook" son often, but when he does, it's usually fire (see "9AM in Dallas," "Ransom," "Lord Knows," etc.). Nothing less than I expected, a jam.

This is nuts, plain bonkers. "Without me, rap is a bunch of orphans, but if I stay, this shit is a bunch of corpses."
Cold. As. @*#$!. I really hope theres a few more tracks like this on the next album. |

Honestly, I like Hybrid Drake better than pure-rap Drake, but the flow is on-point and its just real-talk from Drake about what's been doing... Still a BANGER...

First and foremost I would just like to say no disrespect to anybody but this is just my opinion. I can't believe the booth is giving this song so much love. This song has a weak beat and a weak no hook verse from Drake. I would go as far as to say the weakest no hook verse Drake ahas ever recorded. This song is below average for Drake. To compare this song to any of his other no hook songs is simply ridiculous. It appears that Drizzy has been living it up too much and has lost his ability to put out quality tracks. If this and the lazy over glorified track "Started from the Bottom" are the type of tracks appearing on the new album; then the new album will be just that, lazy and over glorified.

Dope. Straight rapping. This is why I'm not hesitant to say Drake is one of my favourite rappers. He has lyrics, he has flow, he's got it. The beat was ridiculous. If this is what we can expects from Nothing Was the Same, bring it on.
