I just thought you all should know that this is a cover of a remix of the original. The original, I'll Take Care Of You, is by Gil Scott-Heron, and Jamie xx worked with Gil, remixing his entire album, I'm New Here. And Drake and Rihanna used Jamie's remix. The rap, of course, is Drake's. But I just thought I should add this, because a lot of people don't seem to know that.
Actually the original from which Gil Scott-Heron's remix (and now Drake/Rihanna) is sampled was a recording by Bobby Bland in 1959 and became a blues classic. Brook Benton's simple but evocative lyric inspired covers by a diverse range of artists from Etta James to Van Morrison.
