Trust Issues

Trust Issues is one of Care Package's foundational inclusions, a Take Care-era loosie widely regarded as a template for Drake's signature paranoid, late-night R&B mode. It is widely read as a meditation on how success corrodes intimacy — wealth and fame making it impossible to know who is genuine, leaving Drake unable to fully trust the people drawn to him. The track's dim, spacious production and sung delivery became hugely influential on the moody strain of 2010s R&B that followed. As a loosie it built a near-mythic reputation among fans, and its placement on Care Package recognized it as one of the most important non-album songs of Drake's early career.
