So Far Gone (mixtape)
''So Far Gone'' is the third official mixtape by Canadian rapper Drake; it was released on February 13, 2009, under his upcoming October's Very Own label. The mixtape proved to be a major catalyst in the launching of Drake's career on an international scale; ''So Far Gone'' has since been hailed as one of the best mixtape releases of modern music, and was universally well received by professional critics and hip-hop fans alike.
The tracks "Best I Ever Had" and "Successful" were released as singles from the mixtape, and attained unexpected unprecedented success on the US ''Billboard'' Hot 100. The mixtape was promoted with a release party at Toronto with Drake and LeBron James. The artists including Omarion, Lloyd, Lykke Li, Lil Wayne and Bun B provided guest vocals on the release. The mixtape helped launch the careers of producers 40, Boi-1da, and T-Minus, whose contributions to the musical direction of the mixtape were applauded by critics.
==Background==
In an interview with ''Complex'', Drake explains: "The whole tape extends from one of my closest friends Oliver. One night we were having a discussion about women and the way we were talking about them, it was so brazen and so disrespectful. He texted me right after we got off the phone and he was like, 'Are we becoming the men that our mothers divorced?' That's really where the cover comes from, too. It's just this kid in pursuit of love and money. We're good guys, I'm friends with some real good people and for him to even text me after we got off the phone it just showed we have a conscience. But sometimes you just get so far gone, you get wrapped up in this shit. The title has a lot of meanings—as the way we carry ourselves, the way we dress, the way people view us, not to sound cocky, it's just that feeling that we're just distanced in a good way. You’re just elevating past the bullshit and past all the shit that you used to be a part of and you're not that proud of, you're just so far gone."
