    From Comeback Season to IYRTITL, Drake's intros are always well done and great tone setters, but which is his best?

    Man every switch up in that song is perfect.

    Surprised to see no votes for Over My Dead Body though, that's a reeeallly close 2nd for me.

    Fireworks is a great track but that hook :rudy:


    I'm going to have to go with Legend

    I piece letters together and get to talkin' reckless
    Owl chains like credentials, you know you see the necklace
    My life's a completed checklist
    I'm tired of hearin' 'bout who you checkin' for now
    Just give it time, we'll see who's still around a decade from now
    That's real


    'Nuff said

    Over My Dead Body gets me on nostalgia alone, soon as I heard that song I knew we were in for a classic. Tuscan leather is just something else though.

    d---, just way too tough to pick. Lust For Life is a great start. Over My Dead Body is great and Tuscan Leather is fantastic. Legend and Fireworks aren't bad at all either. But the first 3 would be my top picks though couldn't really say fffml.

    Why by such a big margin? I love it and it's a respectable pick (2nd for me), but I think it's much closer than that.

    Its vintage Drake, and its him at the peak of his powers. I knew Take Care would be a classic album from this track alone. Everything about it is perfect. The beat, flow, chorus.. d--- its so f---ing good, and as someone else said it sets the tone for the rest of the album.

    Over My Dead Body is the only choice here.

    And I hate the fact that Tuscan Leather is so overrated. How a song with a beat that great can be so boring is beyond me.

    I feel the exact same way about Tuscan Leather.
    I don't think the song is boring at all. It's hard to explain, but OMDB was fresh. It was Drake reflecting as he was hitting his peak. It was lighthearted but aggressive at the same time. Tuscan Leather's darker tone ended up representing NWTS perfectly, and I feel the overrated tag ppl put on it is because it's so similar to OMDB.
