Drake – Dreams Money Can Buy

After serving some gems earlier, Drake appears to be in album mode as he presents the first audio impression of his upcoming Take Care album. Entitled “Dreams Money Can Buy,” the “BTSTU” sampling track is allegedly the LP’s intro and offers another interesting recount of Drizzy’s rapid success in the industry. Or to put it in his words, “A song that I felt the need to share. Not my single. Just a piece of my story. Hear me out though…Take Care.”
