Almost immediately following his Thank Me Later debut, Drake announced Take Care. When talking about 2011 for his Cash Money Records, Birdman said Drake would likely release Take Care in April. But, when the time came, Drake had only started to record.

During the early spring of this year, Drake said he was going to release his album on October 24. While Thank Me Later was a major success, his initial fans were turned off. Most Drake fans felt he had gone pop with the album. Drake heard the complaints and he is trying to fix it.

On his second album, Drake said he will have more songs like his classics, "Fear" and "9 A.M. in Dallas." He said his second album will be more upbeat than his debut. Drake said he and 40 have been using different sounds that will make his album stand out. On his last album, Drake said he was still getting used to the fame, but now he can handle it and is more comfortable with who he is.
