DRAKE: So Far Gone Now Streaming

TeeRoy's 2 Cents:

  • If people keep freaking out over this Drake re-release, he’s going to start treating his back catalog like the Disney Vault.
  • Why the wait? It all comes down to sample clearance issues. Mixtapes, especially those released in past decades, usually get around clearing samples by putting out the music for free. It takes a while to track down the people who own the rights and make a deal -- especially if you’ve blown up like Drake has.
  • Don't get this confused with the So Far Gone EP, which came out a few months later, and featured a whole different set of songs. 
  • There are so many classic Lil Wayne and Gucci Mane mixtapes that dropped in the days before streaming. 
  • Drake has become a household name in the past 10 years. There are so many fans that have never even gotten a chance to hear some of these songs. 
  • I wonder if this will inspire Drake to do a throwback tour, where he focuses on his classic cuts over the new stuff?

Around midnight, Drizzy tweeted, “So Far Gone, the full original version of the mixtape, streaming everywhere for the first time.” The tweet has already racked up 70,000 likes and 30,000 retweets. 

Here’s what people are saying:

  • Alright, so who else listening to So Far Gone right now as if we didn't already have this tape downloaded?
  • So Far Gone was really good, don’t act like you don’t run back “Uptown” like 40-times.
  • How crazy would it be if So Far Gone hits number-one next week? I wanna see it!
  • Nah, man So Far Gone is a classic classic. These songs hit way harder now as an adult lol.
  • So they put So Far Gone on streaming services at midnight and some Drake fans thought it was new?
  • So that'sHow Fly and So Far Gone added to streaming sites.Mixtape About Nothing was already up. Who else deserves the throwback treatment? I, for one, would be ecstatic to get Big KRIT's mixtapes on there, especially 4Eva N A Day.
  • Wait...so most of y'all didn't already haveSo Far Gone in your iTunes library? 
  • Man, So Far Gone is taking me there right now lol.
  • So much of So Far Gone feels like winter to me but Bria's Interlude feels like the sunroof open on a 80-degree day.
  • So Far Gone takes me to a certain place. Lotta good, lotta bad. But man I was living.
  • I know we got the full So Far Gone tape tonight, but Fear is still the song I always go back to the most. Still one of my favorite songs by Drake ever.
  • Listening to So Far Gone like it just came out 16 minutes ago.
  • With the return of So Far Gone, memories from 2009 are flooding back to me.
