Drake gets a little crazy, sexy, cool on the first offering from his R&B mixtape It’s Never Enough. Drizzy covers TLC’s album title track “FanMail” on the pulsing Noah “40” Shebib production. He was seen wearing his love for the R&B trio on his T-shirt at last month’s VMA rehearsals. Take it back to 1999 below.
HIS VERSION IS COOL BUT WHEN THE HOOK COMES UP I CANT HELP BUT HEAR CHILLI AND T-BOZ. LOVE TLC THO THIS DAY!!!!
BUT I WANNA SEE WHAT ELSE HE OFFERS ON THIS MIXTAPE. AND AT LEAST FROM WHAT I SEE HE TAKES STEADY VOCAL LESSONS SO ITS NOT LIKE HES BEING A TOTAL DOUCHE AND NOT TAKING IT SERIOUS.
This is my favorite TLC song! And while it’s not Drake’s best, he does a great job with this. I’m a fan of both TLC and Drake, and I can’t say “shame on Drake for taking on this song”. He did great. He took a song that was clearly important to him and he made it his own.
I love this. I think Drake usually shines in songs like this. Maybe because I can heavily personally relate to them. His sampling of “Little Bit” on his last mix-tape was amazing.
FanMail was my first album! I love TLC and I really miss LeftEye, her voice and spirit was truly amazing! This song was so special to me and it’s weird to hear someone else sing it BUT I’m kinda glad he did this and hopefully more kids get to know TLC thanks to Drake’s version of ‘FanMail’!
I was probably 3 when it came out, so I haven’t heard the orginal lol. But I hope this isn’t what he does the whole mixtape (cover songs that is). I want hear some original Drizzy
stop complaining guys hes paying respect to TLC’s amazing song.. good job drake u did this song right i like it better than the original because of 40′s new beat on this track.
(to shady) haha i agree his singing was amazing on paris morton music i always use tht song as an example wenever ppl say drake cant sing. yah his singing was amazing on tht track and is amazing on this one.. great cover drake and props to 40 one of the best producers out there he’s very unrecognized and underappreciated which is sad considering all the talent that he has amazing job
Umm if anyone has ever butchered a song it’s the dream coin one in a million…LOL.
I. Thought this was good n drakes brings back what is. Mixing in the mix. Of never ending dance songs, club bangers, n belts… Sensual listening ….I hope he sameples or takes on some aaliyah n some prince
WTF!?! THIS SONG IS OLD!
HE’S RE-DOIN A SONG!!!
I’m trying to remember who originally sang it.
It was a girl R&B singer, i think. But this isn’t his lyrics.
