Drake Claims He Is “Unforgettable” In Latest Track From ‘Thank Me Later’

Another track from BET Awards and MuchMusic nominee Drake surfaced today, the mournful tune “Unforgettable,” which features both Young Jeezy and Aaliyah. (Yes, that Aaliyah.) Does the song live up to its name? Listen below.

Drake feat. Young Jeezy- “Unforgettable”

We’re not trying to be ironic here, but this Noah “40” Shebib-produced track is pretty forgettable. Using a sample of Aaliyah’s vocals from her song “At Your Best (You Are Love)” is an inspired choice, but we’re just not feeling this downtempo, somewhat dreary number, despite Jeezy doing his hardest to liven up the place with his growl during his verses.

We’ve heard a handful of the songs on Thank Me Later (which now drops June 15), and although we have a feeling Drizzy fans will eat it up with no complaint, we think Drake will have a hard time getting a broader audience to enjoy his tunes.

What do you think? Will Thank Me Later be Drake’s shining debut, or will it arrive with a whimper instead of a bang?
