Drake - Tell Me (Dr. Dre Reference Track)

[Izanami]

It’s a shame the potential dope shyt we miss out on in the vaults

 

[JulesMusic719]

Keep telling yall...Drake is gonna floor Kendrick

 

[DaveyDave]

The beat is fire but too bad we will never hear this shyt until Dre does and even then he’ll probably have something in his will saying no one is allowed to release it

 

[theflyest]

I love the beat. Rocko used this sample as well.

 

[Cadillac]

this shyt is dope

the flow is cool with drakes delivery/vocals and all, but i can picture how the finish product would sound so much better with Dres vocals/delivery

 

[Elim Garak]

Ya'll do way too much. It's a reference for Dre track with Drake vocals and people are really trying to say someone else wrote it. Like really, why would you commission someone to write a song and they in turn have someone else to write it? Doesn't even make sense when he could just cut the middle man to begin with.

Still, appreciate the track for the dopeness that it is.

 

[Braman]

And to think its 100+ beats in the vault thats better than this we'll never get to hear

Y'all do know dre probably ain't produce none of these right

There is no way in hell Drake wrote that hiccups punchline. And I was a fan of Drake back in 08. He was never that caliber of a rapper

I never heard Drake rap that way before

Comeback season drake raps exactly like this ... The difference is he kinda 'toughened' his verse here. He cut out the feminine twang he put on the end of words back then

As far as Drake being this type of rapper....well it's tricky bc he really was on comeback season... but from what we knew then and know now, nickelus F probably wrote a ton of that shyt. Nickelus is whole battle rapper to this day. On comeback season drake had songs where he's just punchline after punchline for 3 minutes

Hush probably wrote those man. And young 2008 me is inside sad while I'm typing this right now

 

[GetRichOrDieTryin]

the drake ghostwriting shyt is old af now

we all know his pen is nice, hes written for a LOT of people even before he was the biggest artist.

 

[ClemenzaSupreme]

I used AI so we can hear what Dre would actually sound like

My nikka come back season he was spazzing on them shyts I thought I was bugging back then

In real time as a rapper/producer writing whole songs and bars and concepts for nikkas on they way to the top, I really don’t know what to give drake. Some nikkas come off like the best ever but don’t be thinking of the lines themselves at ALL. It’s always crazy knowing you can destroy someone career cause they put it in the palm of your hands… advice to rappers: don’t say you the best if majority of your stuff is given.

 

[Pegasus Jackson]

Nas & T.I. got one for Dre too

All the star quality involved this still doesn't have the "it" factor. Maybe Dre was right.
