Marvin's Room

There has been a lot of buzz about Drake's new song. In my humble opinion the song is good. Not because he did anything spectacular lyrically, in fact the lyrical content was quite elementary for Drake. The song to me is good because of the relatable elements in the song.

1. Drunk dialing
2. Being horny
3. The ex-factor

I believe it's safe to say most of us have done all three. I have. More than once.

Drunk dialing is the result of being drunk and horny. For ladies it's about getting it in without raising their partner number, because everyone knows repeats don't count, it's the same dhick everytime you go back to it. And even though the relationship fell through like a rock on wet toilet paper you don't have to teach that old dog new tricks, and until that new chick can kick her leg behind her ear like you can, Tyrone is only a phone call away.

For the fellas it's about the love being a sure thing. It's the bottom of the ninth, the club is closing, and the bases are not loaded. The brotha has struck out and the game is over. But wait! Somewhere in phase I&II a young girl is tweeting about how niggas ain't sh!t and she's not gon cry. With a quick "are you up?" text yesterday's ex-girlfriend becomes tonight's booty call. Game, set, match.

Personally I think I'm perfect, not in a snobbish way, in a way that makes it borderline impossible for me to believe that a man could find a suitable replacement after having the experience of my company no longer available. "F*ck that nigga that you love so bad, I know you still think about the times we had." That line makes perfect sense to me, only replace nigga with bish.
I can think  of two examples in particular that constantly boggle my mind. Where the guy is with a girl that looks like the spitting image of a goriffalo *copyright @raebadu* when he could have had me. Yes me! In my mind I exceed most women in most areas of desirability yet she has a man that should be at my disposal. F*ck that bish.

This song is everything that everyone feels after the Q club, the Jungle, or any other miscellaneous hole in the wall let's out, and that is what makes it good. Drake understands the people. And that ladies and gentlemen is what Marvin's Room means to me.
