Despite being deemed one of, if not thee, most anticipated debuts of the year, Drake is not worried about his album, “Thank Me Later”. According to the “Find Your Love” star, the album was not made with the goal of simply being a commercial success. It was made for the ‘people’. “I didn’t make this album for commercial purposes,” Drake said of the album, due in stores June 15. “A lot of the verses are extremely long. I just made it to share with people. I hope they can enjoy.” In related news, Drake is now confirmed to perform at Cisco Ottawa Bluesfest in Ottawa, Ontario July 16. He is also set to take the stage at ‘T In The Park’ in Kinross, United Kingdom.

It was the rapper’s eighth consecutive number one on the Billboard 200 and a chance for him to prove that he could stay at the top of hip-hop. But as news began to swirl about how well or not so well it would do, Drake remained unfazed by all the hype. He continued to promote the album while focusing on what mattered most—the music itself.
