Songfacts®:

  • This bass heavy Hip-Hop orientated song finds Drake rapping about luxury living. "Always presidential and tonight is no blue moon," he spits. The Toronto MC's label owner Birdman exhorts the listener to give Drake respect at the end, as he is one of "the realest niggas with the realest flow."
  • The song was produced by Drake's Toronto friends Tyler "T-Minus" Williams (Lil Wayne's "She Will") and Noah "40" Shebib (Drake's "Successfull"). The two knob twiddlers handled much of the production for Take Care.
  • Drake pays homage to Aaliyah in the first verse when he raps, "Since I saw Aaliyah's precious life go too soon, she deserve the credit for." Drake is a long-term fan of the late R&B singer and even has an image of her face with a dove flying above her tattooed on his back. He previously paid tribute to Aaliyah on his 2009 cut, "Unforgettable."
