November 18thDrake
These days, Drake is a globally beloved, charismatic hip-hop singer, and it’s no exaggeration to say that every track he releases becomes a hit.
This is his 2009 track “November 18th.” It samples the rich, heavyweight rapping of the late The Notorious B.I.G., resulting in a smooth, mature, and laid-back song.
The title doesn’t appear in the lyrics, but November 18 is the day in Houston, Texas, when Drake broke up with his girlfriend and answered a call from hip-hop titan Lil Wayne.
It was a day that profoundly changed his life.
This historic track captures that decisive moment for him.
Give it a listen and imagine what Drake was feeling back then.

When autumn comes, many people crave stylish, nostalgic songs.
