Drake Holding Off On R&B Mixtape

Not long after releasing “I Get Lonely Too,” off his highly anticipated R&B mixtape, ‘It’s Never Enough,’ Drake puts a halt on the project. While Drake had originally announced the tape was coming around the holidays, he explains that he’s on a hiatus from doing R&B tracks He’s using the break to continue recording his sophomore album coming in 2011. Here is what he had to say: “I been rapping a lot lately. Me and 40 (Noah Shebib, his producer) have been doing some great rap music, so I sort of took a hiatus on the R&B for a second. It’s cool to do R&B, I love it, but it’s just hard for me to always commit to it. Because some nights, I get in there and 40′s beats, as melodic or R&B-driven as they may be, just have that right pocket that I just wanna spit. I did this song the other night; I’ve now completed the second song for my album. So I only had one song before for the new album; two nights ago, I did the second song. I’m loving it. I’m loving the sound. I’m excited again.”
