Original Story Canadian rapper Drake has been forced to delay the release of his anticipated album Take Care to create time to clear samples.
“I managed to create this album in my hometown of Toronto, and the
thoughts and stories I wanted to get across just became so clear,” he
said on post from his official website. “It truly felt like when I was
here 3 years ago making So Far Gone. So I have completed 19
songs (17 on physical and 2 on bonus), and have run into a roadblock of
clearing 3 samples in time to make the October 24th date.”
The rapper said that the new date is now November 15, and he opted to
delay the release rather than remove the songs in question.
“My options were to take the songs off and make the birthday release
happen, or to take an extra couple weeks to get the paper work right and
give you the album they way I NEED you to hear it,” he said in the open
letter. “The choice was clear as day for me. November 15th you will get
Take Care the exact way I created it with no trimmings. This
music means too much to me to get attached to dates and I do apologize
for the delay but I promise that it is only for the benefit of our
experience together.”
Drake also said that the Club Paradise tour to accompany Take Care would be delayed to make concessions for students on winter break. New tour dates will be released shortly.
