In the song Fake Love by Drake, the instruments and the production in general is very minimal. The song starts off with a dry marimba sound with no effects, it is a simple marimba sound with just vocals supporting it. When the verse starts the beat also comes in and in my opinion I would say the main focus straight away is the vocals because of the tone that Drake uses in his approach to the song. Since he isn't a professional singer it is evident due to his way of singing that he isn't fully singing like most professional singers would sing in terms of range and vocal dynamics. He sticks to a certain range and uses his rasp to connect with the emotions of the song. The song is about a girl showing fake love towards him and not being faithful towards him, he expressions that emotion through his voice by using his rasp.
The genre of the track is a mix of Hip/hop and R&B and this is obvious when the beat is introduced into the song. The bridge has a bit of auto tune on it in the back vocals which makes the track sound really modern and new.
