"Find Your Love" -Drake

If this song came out in 2008, it would have been an incredible song.  But its not. Its 2010, and the autotuned 808 love songs are a little played.   Even Kanye abandoned the ship after 9 months by just putting out singles pretty quickly.


"Find Your Love" is your typical summer, island pop single that is very radio friendly. This is probably the most "pop" I ever heard from Drake.  And its not so much because of the lyrics, its because of the beat.  This blog is mine, so I can be a harsh as I want to be, so I'm just going to say it: Kanye always gives medicorce stuff to Drake, which was evident in the Best I Ever Had Video.  Honestly, as a lot of people have said already, this is a left over 808 and Heartbreak beat.  And the beat to me honestly ruins the song which could actually be really good because the lyrics are great, as usual.  The beat is ok, but not really original. I'm not saying the song is awful, its ok, but not really remarkable.  If Drake was going to put out a single of him just singing, he should have finished "Fall For Your Type" and put that out instead. "Shut it Down" would have been better too.  However, I always find it hard to really judge an R & B song.  I feel like they are so personal and they are always there when you need them in a sense. Like have you ever been going through something, you are listening to your music, and you find a forgotten song that fits perfectly to the situation? I might not be able to relate to this song right now, but later on, this might be exactly what I need. Regardless, I know I'll like it more later. Its not like I'm saying I hate the song, I don't, its just a pretty cool song but I've liked other Drake R & B songs a whole lot more. But I also see this being one of the major songs of the summer since its so radio friendly and catchy. I'm just going to let this play out, and see how the rest goes...

So if I had to some all of this up in one sentence I would just say: It's a cool song.  I do think the video could make our break the song, but I feel Mandler, the director, vision will enhance the song.

lol its like I'm trying really hard to like this song, but I just can't get so excited for it.  Maybe I'm feeling pressure from friends.  Every time you tell a person you don't like a Drake song, they act like you insulted their mother.
