4. Take Care

It’s hard to argue that anything featuring Rihanna and Drake is under the radar, but it seems to be “What’s My Name” that gets all the attention. That’s a shame, because “Take Care” sparks some serious feelings. Released by Drake in 2012 as a single featuring Rihanna, the ode about being there for one another samples the Jamie xx remix of Gil Scott-Heron’s “I’ll Take Care of You.” Drake handles the verses with Rihanna on the refrain, and by gosh, it sure sounds like they’re talking about their own real-life off-and-on relationship (and the dynamic with Chris Brown). And yet it only went to number one on the Rhythmic chart, stopping at number seven on the Hot 100. (The less said about “Work” right now, the better.)
