Album leak spurs #trendingtopic

Canadian artist, Drake, is one of the most talked about artists in the last few years of hip hop and pop music. His new highly anticipated album Take Care drops on November 15, however the album leaked and spurred six of the top 10 trending topics on Twitter this morning. With hashtags attached to song titles from the new album, fans seem to be pleased. Drake tweeted that “I am not sure if the album leaked. But if it did thank god it doesn't happen a month early anymore.” He added, “Listen, enjoy it, buy it if you like it...and take care until next time.”


Being a fan, I'll be buying his album the legit way, however I couldn't help but listen to some leaked tracks. It seems like albums are always getting "leaked" now, when the demand for new music from the artist is high. When there's a solid fan base present, the artists seem unaffected by the leaks, with faith that their hard work will pay off one way or another.


This video was uploaded by "RealDrizzyDrake" on YouTube yesterday, and the song is labeled wrong, but it starts with a line about Texas girls. : ) Thought I'd share.

Man, I really need to get with it on Twitter! That stinks that it leaked, but he'll still be making a killing. Just goes to show how huge he really is.
