Rapper Drake says his new album 'Nothing Was The Same' is much more upbeat than his last one.
The 26-year-old 'Hold On We're Going Home' hitmaker says his last album, 2011's 'Take Care', was more dark and ballad-led so he was determined to produce more club-friendly beats for his third studio record, reported E! online.
"It is emotional, but I think I also found a balance in the production--as far as not to make it so down. I feel like 'Take Care' had real ballads, real down moments, and I feel like on this album, I try to push everything together to make it strong. It's great," Drake said.
"It is one of my favourite pieces. It's concise. I'm really proud of the writing on there. And producer 40 Noah Shebib outworked me on the production, he's amazing. It's good, I'm excited," he added.
