About Fancy

"Fancy" is a song by Canadian rapper Drake, from his debut album, Thank Me Later. The song features vocals from American rappers T. I. and Swizz Beatz, the latter of whom also co-produced the track alongside Noah "40" Shebib. The song was released to US radio stations on August 3, 2010 as the album's fourth official single, however promotion of the track ended earlier than expected due to Drake's uncertainty towards the song's planned music video and promotion. The song contains a sample of "I Don't Want to Play Around" by Ace Spectrum. The original version that had leaked features the chorus sung by Young Jeezy and T. I., while Young Jeezy and T. I. raps the first verse and the First three are rapped by Drake . It was intended to be on Mary J. Blige's album Stronger with Each Tear, but missed the deadline and was later given to Drake in 2008. Blige's vocals were kept on Drake's version as a backing vocal, though formally uncredited. The track received a nomination for Best Rap Performance By A Duo Or Group at the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards. more »
