Beat of the Week 01/02/2012

I know I missed a few of these due to the holidays, but we're back with the first beat of the week of 2012. For this one I'm going to go with one of the most creative tracks from one of the best albums of 2011, Drake's "Look What You've Done" from his Take Care album. The track is produced by Chase N. Cashe with additional production by Noah "40" Shebib. The creativity behind this track lies in the fact that it is sampled from a studio session of the group Playa as you will see in the video below. The simplicity of this track mixed in with Drake's lyrics/flow just makes this a real hot song (at least in my opinion). Check it out for yourself.
