Drake's "Jungle" is a prime example of what makes him a great artist

[Hook: Gabriel Garzón Montana]
Rock me real slowly
Put a bib on me
I'm just like a baby, drooling over you
The things you do

[Verse 1: Drake]
These days, I'm letting God handle all things above me :whew:
The things I can't change are the reasons you love me :mjcry:
Listen you can hear them calling my name :ohhh:
I'm all over the place, I can't sit in one place :mjpls:
I'm not ashamed at all :usure:
Still findin' myself, let alone a soulmate, I'm just sayin' :wow:
Feel like we one and the same, our relationship changed :to:
That or it never existed :sadcam:
Whenever they say somethin' bout us, you listen :stopitslime:
But fukk what they talkin' about on your timeline :ufdup:
That's cuttin' all into my time with you :takedat:
fukk what they talkin' about on your timeline
That's cuttin' all into my time with you :whoo:

[Hook]

[Verse 2: Drake]
She said you're my everything :bryan:
I love you through everything :dwillhuh:
I done did everything to her :ohlawd:
She forgave me for everything, this a forever thing :lawd:
Hate that I treated like it's a whatever thing :patrice:
Trust me girl, this shyt is everything to me
She from the Jungle, she from the Jungle (:lolbron: @ the animal noises)
I take somebody elses car, drive it undercover :wtb:
This shyt is everything to me, this shyt is everything
Don't know where we stand, I used to hit you bout everything :noah:
Are we still good? Are we still good?
Are we still good? Are we still good?
If I need to talk are you around?
Are you down for the cause?
Are you down? Are you down? Are you down?
Are you down for the cause?
Are you down? Are you down? Are you down?
Are you down for the cause? :smugfavre:
You still down? You still down? You still down? :sadbron:

[Hook]

[Verse 3: Drake]
These days these new girls got me nervous :huhldup:
They go to school and do bottle service :sas2:
They can't decide, they keep switching majors :snoop:
Being indecisive makes me anxious :lupe:
Call your number and it's out of service :comeon:
Who can I call for your information? :francis:
What am I supposed to do after we done doing everything we do :what:
Who is your replacement?
Are we still good? Are we still good?
Are we still good? Are we still good? :why:


If you can't feel this shyt, you're a fukking lame. Straight up. :ufdup:




LYRICALLY, Drake is a BAD man :whew:

Dude is one of the best R&B writers at this point...this shyt is flawless. I only see Frank Ocean, Bruno Mars, or Miguel touching this if at all...LYRICALLY

And why is that?

I'm serious.

If you like R&B, you should like this song.

I like well sung R&B and that ain't it. And I like my rappers to rap not make these cringe worthy attempts at "diversity". Just rap man. He's a good rapper I hate when he does this, I don't even know what to call it because it's not singing. He nearly does it through out the album.

LMAO every time someone doesn't like Drake's music people who try to defend him say "Y'all must not get any bytches"

Such a silly argument

Are you seriously not feeling this?

I'm flatly asking you.

This sounds amazing to me. And I don't know what "well sung" means in 2015. You're not getting Luthers and Stevie's anymore. The monstrous vibrato and deep voices have given way to a vast array of voices and tones.

This is easily one of Drake's best R&B tracks.

And we're not even addressing the lyrics. I mean this was phenomenal. This is like something Carl Thomas or Joe or Case etc. would have written.

You can tell dude is a student of this shyt.

I don't see how you can't appreciate this.
