“Hand down, I’m too proud for love but with eyes shut, it’s you I’m thinking of.” Accompanied by the serial unrequited lover, Lykke Li, Drake’s version of Little Bit expresses the heart break of finally letting someone in while struggling to keep your pride in the process. ”I said peace before but this time I meant it.” For the epitome of the on and off again relationship, Macklemore describes the nuances of why it is so goddamn difficult to leave for good. If there is one thing to come away with, jealousy always kills. “But I’m stickin with my heart, now look, I’m sittin in the dark” Fans have to thank this Diplomat member for his apology letter turned rap, regrets included. “Yeah, see, breaking up is hard, to move along, it’s even harder.” Geniusly modeled after 500 Days of Summer, Wale lets us in on the plot lines of his infamous breakup, reality and expectations included. For those of you who need something besides Taylor Swift to sulk with after a break up, see below. These records are proof that Drake’s not the only rapper in the game who needs some love and maybe a hug too. Rap is usually pigeonholed into bragging about chains, cars, and money, talking shit, or constantly competing for champion status, but what about when we are broken hearted? While artists like Drake have perfected the sentimental craft of heart break, artists have been spitting about love and loss since the beginning of the era.
