Drake will have to Wait on "Thank Me's"

The way that Drake was releasing music last year led many people to believe that Thank Me Later was going to be released last year. But, because of the fact that Drake wanted to create a masterpiece and the constant push backs of the Lil Wayne albums led to Drake being slated for a 2010 release. Even before any music came from the album, the release date was set for June 2010.

Earlier this year, Drake said that his primary focus was to make his album into one of those classic debuts. He said that before each of his recording sessions that he listens to Illmatic. That album, the first from Nas, has been hailed as one of the greatest debut albums of all-time. Last month, the first single, "Over," was released off of Thank Me Later. The song has become a great hit off of the album.

Following the success of "Over," Drake finally recieved a release date of May 22, 2010. Despite the popularity of the new music and the anticipiation, Universal Records has pushed Thank Me Later back. The album has been pushed back to its original timeframe of June 2010. No exact date has been set in June.
