These Are The Top 10 Drake Songs Of All Time... But That's Just My Opinion

Drake / Instagram

This article is strictly opinion based, I am not a music major and I will not be dissecting every song looking at samples and beats trying to find the perfect combo. This is just what songs I think, emphasis on the I, are Drakes best.

10. "Do Not Disturb" — "More Life"

This song debuted on the "More Life" album back in 2017. It wasn't one of his chart hitters but its a great song. The fast-paced tone and light tone of a woman singing in the background makes this a song you can bump when you're trying to get hype or on a long drive.

9. "You & The 6" — "If Your Reading This It’s Too Late"

A bid to his mother, Drake wrote this song as a letter to his mom. He discusses the struggles he faces with his new found fame. He also drops viscous bars such as "I pull the knife out my back and I cut their throats with it, mama." Similar to "Do Not Disturb" this song serves as a double threat of hype or vibe.

8. "Child's Play" — "Views"

A catchy hook and an upbeat tempo are two things that make "Child's Play" one of my favorites. I also like the humor behind the song as Drake details how girls can blow up in your face.

7. "Can’t Take A Joke" — "Scorpion"

One of my favorite songs from "Scorpion," this song was shadowed by hits like "Nonstop" and "In My Feelings." There is a very catchy repetitive bass and Drake has a flow that makes this song memorable.

6. "6 God" — "If Your Reading This It’s Too Late"

"6 God" is a cutthroat classic where Drake shows his enemies what he's about. The song starts off hot and keeps a fast pace the entire time. This is one of the best hype songs Drake has made.

5. "9" — "Views"

In this song, Drake praises himself for turning the "6" upside down and making it a 9. Drake is one of the most influential people, if not the most, to come out of Toronto. This is a great song that serves as almost a sad, but upbeat vibe.

4. "Worst Behavior" — "Nothing Was The Same"

This songs starts off quiet but jumps right into an instant bang with Drake jumping in. Drake wrote this song in order to detail his life growing up without a father, and how he never loved him.

3. "6 Man" — "If Your Reading This It’s Too Late"

One of my favorite songs due to the energetic and unique beat and crazy lyrical flow brought by Drake. There's also a lot of scream rapping going on which always gets me amped up.

2. "Marvin's Room" — "Take Care"

One of the most iconic feels songs ever, "Marvin's Room" can get anyone in their emotions, even if you're in a solid relationship you can't help to feel the pain Drake is portraying. The flow is also very smooth and the piano solo at the end is something else.

1. "Know Yourself" — "If Your Reading This It’s Too Late"

The big reveal. "Know Yourself" is one of Drake's biggest songs. It starts off as a vibe, with Drake flowing through the lyrics of "running through the six with my woes." Then halfway through the song, we get a sudden change where the song turns into a high octane powerhouse. Drake goes in, providing us with a song that will have you singing along before you even know it.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

3. How to give back.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
