A big part of music nowadays is ‘over-production,’ with a lot of songs having a ton of different sections, dozens of layered vocals, and maybe even a few beat switches. This was especially prevalent in the early 2000s with R&B, where much of the music from producers like Timbaland or Swizz Beatz was grand and full, but Drake took a different approach that directly contradicted this idea.
“Marvin’s Room” is probably what everyone means when they voice that they miss the “old” Aubrey Graham, the one who wore his feelings on his sleeve, and used these minimalistic soundscapes in order to make the listeners actually reflect and evoke emotion.
14 years later, the single is now eligible for RIAA diamond certification, meaning it’s sold over 10 MILLION units 🤯
Thoughts on this track looking back? Is this one of your favorite Drake songs? 👀
