Wondering how our song ended up on that mixtape? Back in the mid 00's we were all the rage with hip-hop/r'n'b-crews. Don't really know who started it and maybe it never really ended? It might have been a sign of the times when those two worlds (us being "indie"?) suddenly aligned all over the place, but we do GET IT; the funky super dry drums and hooky airy riffs of "Writer's Block" are (like the funkmasters of old) indeed perfect to rap or freestyle over. We performed with Kanye in 2007, and with Living Thing we took it one step further with the Re-Living Thing mixtape full of MCs and producers recasting the whole album in new settings. We also performed with some of those people on the following tour. Around that time Drake started making waves with his "So Far Gone" mixtape, and there we were again, him singing over Let's Call It Off. Did he ask permission? Nah, but that was totally cool with us. One could say we kickstarted his career though 😉Here we are 10 years later and at long last "So Far Gone" is officially available on streaming and download everywhere, and you can enjoy it again with us getting a piece of the action. Please do!! So all our best to you @drake wherever you are. Let us know if you need a guest spot at a gig or something. 😊

I would never have expected to hear something like this on a Drake album. It’s so crazy to think this was from 2009 and yet it sounds so much like something you’d hear now, being that indie pop rock is really popular rn. I wish Drake would be creative again and do more songs like this with indie artists.

It's insane how far Drake has fallen in artistic quality. I was obsessed with him 2009-2011 but after that he just started pandering to mainstream sounds and tried to become a pop star and rap star at the same time. Nothin was the same was alright but after Take Care everything truly wasn't the same.
@ryanwanjay8243

ryan wanjay just because something is pop doesn't mean it conforms to industry standards/trends (look at Prince for example) Lately Drake has been taking the easy route and not experimenting look at Views (just a bad album) and More Life (good album but just Drake doing his take on modern rap) the Drake of today would not take chance like 2009-2011 Drake, who would rap I've Peter, Bjorn, and John and Jai Paul tracks, that's undeniable.
